So when are Paq and May going at each other? I can't wait to see Paq beating the crap out of May. Paq just is such a gifted boxer. It's just amazing how such dominance comes from his size.

I'm guessing, May will be running around trying to keep distance as he has reach advantage.

If negotiations pull through, probably June as Pacquiao is running for congressman here and the elections will be over by the month of May. God help his constituents if he wins.

You seem to be underestimating Mayweather. As much as I want to see Pacman KO Mayweather, Floyd is just too slick and fundamentally sound. Mayweather dodges, blocks (with his shoulder), punches, and gets out of a disadvantageous position on the ring all at the same time.

Great, finally it is happening. Hope Pacquiao will train enough for the fight though. Didn't know he had interests in politic.

I do realize Mayweather is the favorite as he's bigger and solid, but let me be little biased and say Pacquiao in 10. :)

Mayweather had troubles with Zab Judah so I reckon Pacquiao got some chance on this one "if" it happens...

Pac now have a reason when he losses to Floyd. :shake:
Don't run for Congress, damn it.

It will be in March, before the national elections here.

The much-anticipated bout between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao is all but set for March 13, a source told Yahoo! Sports.

Mayweather has agreed to terms and promoter Bob Arum is making a trip to Manila, Philippines, to finalize a deal with Pacquiao, the source said.

Las Vegas, Dallas and New Orleans are the front-runners to host the bout, which is expected to become the highest-grossing boxing match in the sport’s history.

Promoters had targeted May 1 for the fight almost from the moment that Pacquiao stopped Cotto. But Pacquiao filed Tuesday to run for Congress in the Philippines and the election will be held on May 10.

Given that, the bout with Mayweather had to be moved up to March 13 or pushed back until September.

A survey team from Top Rank will inspect Dallas Cowboys Stadium as a possible venue. The MGM Grand Garden Arena and the New Orleans Superdome are also in the running to host the mega-fight, the source said.

Is it true that the fight isn't gonna happen and Manny's sueing May? :shake:

Highly probable that the fight might not push through. Both parties are at a disagreement about the scheduling of the drug tests. Mayweather camp wants a test 48 hours before the fight, Pacquiao doesn't want to because he thinks it might weaken him so close to the fight. Pacquiao does agree to a test after the fight itself but Mayweather camp doesn't want that and insists on their demand.

The fight is as good as dead imo but this article thinks otherwise...

Also add that Pacman is a bit superstitious like some athletes.

I know why Floyd is asking Manny to take the test...

This was the film I remembered that the producers conceptualized to include Nicole Scherzinger and Batista. :lol: Silly guys. :shake: :shake: :shake: :shake: :shake:

The people here should stop making Manny a novelty. Today, aside from being a boxer, he's a (supposed) actor, comedian, action star, singer, and even a shampoo endorser:

Is the rumor true that the movie is an absolute suckfest that the major malls removed it from their cinema lineups even though the MMFF isn't over yet?
At least Manny got some booty in making that movie.

But Floyd would also undergo those blood tests right? So it's just fair. I'm starting to feel something weird about these PED Controversial thingy's.

Re: Boxing

Sun Jan 10, 2010 7:50 am

The fight ain't happening. I don't know what the reasons are, but I guess it's mostly because Pac doesn't have much to gain from this fight any more than May does.

Re: Boxing

Sun Jan 10, 2010 12:15 pm

Personally I think that the shares are the reason why the fight was withdrawn.

Joshua Clottey, that Black dude that fought Miguel Cotto before he Miguel fought Pac.

- I'm really starting to think that Pac is either a pussy or using PED's. ( :| )

Naw. I seriously doubt it. Pacq agreed to the test but May wanted Olympic level of ped test which isn't neccessary. As far as I know, Pacq agreed to WBC standard PED test. Not sure about the difference though.
