I'd be willing to bet my life on it. Most of you are excited for obvious reasons. I am also to a certain extent but most of you all are setting yourselves up for a huge disappointment.
This fight will be hyped as the biggest fight in our era if not all time. Every single person you know is going to watch the fight, it is going to shatter pay per view records, and no matter who wins, come Monday morning when you all hit school/work all the people there are going to be bitching how boring the fight was and how they wasted 55 bucks on the fight. Not to mention 2 hours of what i anticipate to be a shitty and boring undercard.
I am just giving you all a heads up. These blockbuster fights never live up to expectations these days. Say what you want about this thread but i guarantee the general American public is going to be extremely unsatisfied with the fight.
Exactly..
and how 2501 said in a thread I saw before..if you want just ALL OUT BRAWLS..watch UFC..or go on Youtube and search for Kimbo street fights..
This is boxing.."The Sweet Science" you can't just love one style and hate the rest..
I'll admit..I like toe to toe exchanges but I like defense and smarts too..hence why I like mainly boxer/punchers but when you got the best offense clashing with the best defense..I can't see it being boring at all!..
and FUCK the casuals..they'll do what they always do..complain and moan but still tune in..I'm worried about my own liking of the fight..only way I see a disappointment is if they clash heads and it ends early in a NC or an early decision..ha!..
Great post, green K :boxing:
If Mayweather shuts out Pac it will be a boxing masterclass. Personally I think the different styles will make for a good fight - Floyd will probably get hit more than usual due to the amount of punches Pac throws, and Pac will take a LOT of flush counters on the way in.
I don't care if it's boring as the Kingdom of Heaven! Just seeing them two in the ring together is close enough to orgasm! And that's not being gay!
I am a Pacfan through and through but will never underestimate floydie's skills and enough of this hatred against Money and Manny! It's kind of boring already. Same shit all the time!!!!
I can see why people think the fight may be a dissapointment, but I think quite the opposite. In fact I think there will be a knock out. I think the two fighters attributes provide the perfect recipe for a great fight.
Check out my blog on the topic at mikebrown7.wordpress.com and vote for who you think would win
but that casual fan will be probably disappointed the next day.
I mean it doesn't even matter if they are dissapointed. Floyd and Manny would have already gotten their money and 1 hour or so of attention. Basically that is all that matters.
I have a feeling the fight will be boring. BUT i also a feeling that this one ends in a KO.
Pac will be too easy to hit for Mayweather, and Pac may punch to hard for Mayweather.
So as boring as the fight may be, i think everyone will be satisfied if we get to see a KO
I agree with the bold, but not the underlined.
If anyone is expecting Mayweather to engage, don't watch the fight. If you do watch the fight, don't come to the forum and make a thread bitching about how Mayweather put on a technical boxing workshop but you thought it was boring because of that. That's heads up for yo' ass. Don't ever expect a technician to engage with a slugger or offensive fighter, however you want to classify him!

I have never seen Pacquiao in a boring fight. No opponent will infect him with boringness, not even PBF. :fingersx:
everyones going to watch it and everyones going to remember the result, regardless of how shitty or not the undercard is, or how much the PPV costs. get your head out of the sand

Pacquiao's Last Dozen Fights
Cotto - KO/TKO
Hatton - KO
DLH - KO/TKO
Diaz - KO/TKO
JMM - 114-113 SD
Barrera - UD
Solis - KO/TKO
Morales - KO/TKO
Larios - UD
Morales - KO/TKO
Velasquez - KO/TKO
9 Stoppages in 12 fights. 3KD in 3 Decision Victory. None were a DISAPPOINTMENT.
Its IMPOSSIBLE for a Pacquiao fight to be a DISAPPOINTMENT even if the opponent is Floyd. Pac will make it an exciting GREAT Fight.

mosley floyd is the fight i want to see instead of this farce
It might be a boring fight but everyone will still watch it, thats what promoting is for and they'll promote the hell out of this fight and I'm not gonna lie I enjoy watching Floyds craft
This fight will be similar to Chavez/Whitaker, very boring IMO. I just can't see Floyd doing anything more than potshot and running to a decision that may be controversially close as was the case in JCC/Whitaker fight... :sleeping:
It will be hard for the fight to live up to the hype that will surround it. I like the clash of styles... just hopefully there will be a KO, for either fighters. UD and SD are always anti climatic.
