    That's what they said in 2009. 5 years later....*tumbleweed*

    No, it's not on. It will not be on until approx 2 minutes before they fight and they are both in the ring. Otherwise don't torture yourself, somebody will find a reason for them not to fight, rinse, repeat. How long have we been going through this? Must be the best part of 5 years

    Yep , don't believe it either.

    'Ducking' risky fighters is 'clever selection' in Mayweather's eyes.

    Thats why he will never one of the greatest .....

    Couldn't agree more.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,419 ✭✭✭weemcd


    Pac is looking likely to fight Bradley or Provodnikov now, so this one is out for the next few months anyway

    Opposite is true, Fighting fighters who suit your style has been the Manny way under Roach and Arum.

    Mayweather would and will if it happens go through Manny, Would be embarrassingly easy to be realistic, Manny struggles with the boxing skills of Marquez who Mayweather made look like a novice, This fight I'm not intyerested in, Would be a 1 sided beat down with 1 fighter hoping for 1 punch to land

    So committed was Pacquiao to avoiding difficult styles he fought Juan Manuel Marquez four times.

    As much as I hate posting in these threads I must say one thing: FMJ ducked Pacquiao and has as good as admitted it at this stage. In numerous interviews he has said that it's all about picking an opponent to maximise earnings and limit the damage he sustains. Which he has every right to do. But he does not have the right to do this and then claim he fought the best.

    This topic is a black hole so I'll leave it that.

    This is actually a fight I don't want to see, it's years past it's sell by date.
    Would have been one of the greatest ever around 2010.
    Pac is not the same fighter and I don't believe Mayweather is what he once was


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,285 ✭✭✭Frankie Lee


    It would sicken me to see Khan getting such an undeserved pay day.

    Venue could be Cowboys Stadium due to increased capacity. Far too much money for it not happen.

    Mayweather's latest FB post is cringe!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,430 ✭✭✭badabing106


    Its a shame they couldn't fight 5 years ago, when they were in their prime

    If they fought now? Can you imagine the inevitable dodgy result that would incur ?

    Do tell....

    Below is what was written on his page. Below this is 3 pictures of Manny being dropped by JMM.

    "My new boxing DVD is coming soon and is called "3 Ways to Sleep". Back, Face and Butt and I'm Falling & I Can't Get Up. Miss Pac Man is broke and desperate for a pay day. Your Pay-Per-View numbers are a joke."

    Pacman has digs and its alright but floyd posts anything and he's an ''arse''


    Will you give it a rest lads he posted factual real pictures of pacman knocked the Fu^k out,if anybody can afford to slag someone in boxing its mayweather considering hes undeafeated after 47 bouts

    Its says a lot about you if you get annoyed by a funny post on facebook its simple if you dont like what you see or hear dont follow him on social media or dont watch anything with him in it either,its not hard.

    Floyd is a convicted wife beating scumbag. No amount of money can change that

    Didnt contest it so it wouldnt drag through the courts I thought? manny is far from squeaky clean from tax evasion to harbouring fugitives I wont even include peds in that,if you dont like mayweather dont pay the ppv to watch him and dont follow him on fb/twitter.
