Mayweather is gonna destroy him

DaveNull 02-20-2015 05:32 PM

I thought this had something do do with Malcom Floyd and Pacman Jones.

SPchief 02-20-2015 05:34 PM

When they step foot in the ring and the bell is sounded is when I'll believe this is actually going to happen

jjjayb 02-20-2015 05:34 PM

Mayweather won't destroy anyone if he does his usual run away from your opponent for the whole fight that he's done in his last half dozen fights.

Hard to tell. Mayweather is amazing but it's easy to dominate hand picked opponents that are nowhere near the caliber of Pacquiao. It will be a good fight. I think Mayweather wins, but I don't see him destroying Manny.

Who gives a shit anymore? The whole 4 year "negotiation" for this fight has been like two drunk idiots pushing each other outside a bar, both afraid to commit to fighting. Eventually onlookers become bored, call them pussies, and leave.

Pacquiao, after a couple of subpar performances, will make this the biggest fight of his life and work his tail off to go out and beat Floyd. This will be a fantastic fight.

Pac wins by a field goal in OT. 24-21.

I'm excited for the Vegas odds to be released.

I usually only bet UFC, but I'll put a few hundred on Mayweather. Hopefully a bunch of Pacquiao nuthuggers who saw him beat a bunch of scrubs in 2004 will put their life savings on him. More money for the rational folk.

His last fight was anything but sub par. It was complete domination. I see this being like any of Mayweather's other fights. He will run, run, run, throw a couple punches and run some more. It will come down to the cards. If I were Manny, I would just stand in the corner and wait for Mayweather to quit running. Litteraly just stand there and show the world what a joke Mayweather has become.

This is Mayweather's game plan: Skip to 38 seconds and you'll see Mayweather's recent fights in a nutshell.

Glad they finally got it done. I love it when my friends get excited about a fight so finally get to have a big fight night party.

I'm guessing odds will be somewhere in the 3 to 1 range in Floyd's favor. Might be worth a small bet on Pacman.

People think these two fighters are way out of their prime. For all I know Floyd hasn't showed ANY signs of decline. Pacman showed signs, but he's going to be ready. It'll still be his biggest fight in big career.

You better believe these two guys are going to fight like there 25 years old again.

Not a lot of people even knew what it was back in the day. I use to watch that more than UFC. Wanderlei Silva was the reason I watched Pride. His fight against Kazuyuki Fujita was brutal. It was crazy becasue Kazuyuki Fujita skull is thicker than the average human. Silva went to town on it.

Wandy vs Mark Hunt was a great fight too. I bought Pride 5 thru 10 on vhs after each event. The early Sakaraba vs the Gracies battles were awesome.

Its hard to be more wrong than this. Damn near every fight has guys with very different styles going at it. Wrestling, Karate, kickboxers, pure strikers, Muay Thai, hell even a couple judo fighters.

If you are talking about the weird overly-styled stuff from the earliest days, martial artists who do stupid shit that don't work was weeded out. If it worked, we'd see it.

SDChiefs 02-21-2015 04:50 PM

May weather is a bitch. His only concern is keeping his record pristine so he can say he's the best. Pacman wants to beat the best so there's no contest. A champion in 8 different weight classes vs an undefeated who has until this point skirted any battle that he thought he may lose. Manny ftw.

Floyd doesn't whoop people. What he does is use his great defense to his advantage in that he only needs to land a few punches and do a few counters to win a fight.

Thats why I hope Pac doesn't get too aggressive. He got too aggressive in the Marquez fight when he was winning and ended up getting countered and knocked out even though he was beating Marquez's ass the whole fight prior to that. Floyd is a master at countering, can't leave yourself wide open like Pac has a tendency to do.

Cheapest Floyd Mayweather Vs Manny Pacquiao Tickets Over $4,000 On Secondary Market

It may be later than most have wanted, but “The Fight of the Century” is happening. Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao have signed a contract, agreeing to fight later this year. As the fight has finally on the books, prospective fans hoping to attend will be looking at the most expensive boxing tickets ever tracked on the secondary market. According to Darren Rovell of ESPN, the early word is that the lower level face price will be around $3,500. While that is an astronomical price, it pales in comparison to the $100 million purse that the two fighters will be competing for.

Between endorsements, sponsors and the massive time spent planning and trash talking, both fighters have reveled in the idea of squaring off for the better half of a decade, but negotiations have fallen through each time. As the world awaited a fifth pass, an agreement has been reached with the premiere fight scheduled for May 2 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. Now that both camps have signed on the dotted line, they should be ready to generate millions of dollars from the fight, win, lose of draw. In what would be the most lucrative and highest-grossing fight of all-time, Mayweather vs Pacquiao is already generating prices above almost anything else we’ve seen in recent history on the secondary market. With the cheapest ticket on the secondary market is currently going for over $4,000, the only comparable event we’ve see was the recent Super Bowl between the Seahawks and Patriots, which had get-in prices close to the $5,000 mark.

I dont quite understand why so many people like watching small men fight. No weight divisions IMO. If there were no weight divisions Mayweather would be pumping gas. Is there an NFL for 140 lbs men? No? Why not? That's not fair! What about an NBA where the max height is 6 ft? Why don't they have that?

It may not have been a KO, but he absolutely mopped the floor with Robert Guerrero. The 4th round knockout on Cruz counts too right?

Pacquiao's last loss? A 6th round KO. If you want to criticize FMM for not finishing fights decisively, why give Pac-Man a pass? When's the last time he knocked a guy out? Like 2008? Come on now.

I think if I tackled Pacquiao - I'd have a chance, I think I would charge him like a bull, then fake high - then go low and use an old Judo move I remember from the military. That'd be my approach.

Or if Manny didn't pretend to be afraid of needles.

tredadda 02-22-2015 09:18 AM

This will be the biggest test for Mayweather in quite a few years. He has been hand picking easy opponents for years now so it is really hard to say how good he truly still is. It's like LeBron James choosing to play a one on one game against a college freshman. Sure he will dominate as expected, but now if he were to play against Durant it would be a different story. Not saying he wouldn't win, but it wouldn't be a cake walk.

Ortiz, that has a ****ing asterisk, because he wouldnt have knocked him out if it wasnt for that whole hugging ordeal, but youc an give it to him if you want. ITs a win, but come on now, would have never happened had the hugging or whatever it was that went down.

Pac might not have knocked anyone out, but he at least has hurt fighters, before that lucky punch Marquez got him with, he had dropped him like 2 times i think, them 4 fights all get bunched up in my head, he dropped Algeri 6 times and that fight should have been stopped in the 10th i believe, i have no idea why the ref's allowed him to keep going. If anyone watched the GGG fight lastnight, the Ref stopped it correctly it should have been the same for Manny in that fight.

Im not saying Manny is going to knock Floyd out, but there is no way in hell Floyd is going to Mop the floor with anyone. He may very well win, i expect him too, because he's going to 1-2 then get out. He's going to get hit a few times as well, but him seriously hurting anyone? naw.

The NFL nor the NBA is a one on one sport. Comparison makes no sense.
