Isnt March 13th Perfect Though?

DLT16y ago

I mean, you heard the crowd. "We Want Floyd". Arum said there will be no tour so all Pac has to do is train. I know people say that Pac's star cant get any bigger in the Philipines but Im not buying it. If he beats Floyd then he is the man. I mean I could honestly see him losing the election right now but if he beats Floyd then I think he wins the election. Thats how big this fight is. I think the people over there would go nuts over a Mayweather win and then Pac will still have 2 whole months to do the political thing. March is the perfect date. I dont get why people are saying that its so close to the election. Its not. Its the perfect time. Lets all be real, Pac is probably already physicaly fine right now and he still has a good amount of time before he starts training on like January 13th or whatever. He trains for 2 months, kicks Floyd's ass, is the hero of all hero's, campaigns on top of the world for 2 months, and kicks ass in the Election. All of this is setting up so perfect for him. I dont think there are any disadvantages but if so, when has that bothered Pac before? Its like the more he's doing, the better he looks in the ring. On top of that, he's still better off than a Mayweather who would only have had 1 fight in the last 2 and a half years by time this fight takes place and most of you think that was a sparring match against an inferior guy. This is the perfect time to fight Floyd. You dont want to fight him in September after he's had 2 more fights and is looking super sharp again. Even Arum before the JMM fight was talking about how they want to make him wait so he's rusty. They didnt even want him to fight JMM so I know they dont want him to get even more sharper. The time is now and I think it will happened because Arum is the greediest guy of them all and he knows that he doesnt want to lose on this pay day because if you put it off now then anything can happened. It has to go now and I think its way better for Pac than people are making it out to be. It helps him in a ton of ways. Infact, the shit almost sets up so good for him that Im getting worried that he's destined to have this fairy tale ending by knocking Floyd out, cruising to the Congress win, and then beating Foreman for an 8th title in September

I always thought that March would have been too soon and that the fight should take place in May, but with these elections for Manny coming up now... I thinkt he fight should be in the summer or fall.. THis fight needs to be promoted the right way HBO needs to have them both fight on the same day to build up even more momentum to thier showdowns.. let the opposiition be cup cakes or whatever, hell it can be on PPV but they do need to showcase them 1 more time before the big fight.. helps Floyd with rust and helps Manny see what he has after the Cotto fight..

May would be perfect but the ****in elections thing ****in things up.. http://img257.imageshack.us/img257/8004/a9a6653e4897613lwv7.jpg This should be the response to all Pacfans until further notice...

I think he feels that this fight is so big that it doesnt need a tour like others do. Everyone knows both these guys and knows that this is the fight still, there is nothing like hype when it comes to boxing. he shorting the fight if there isn't a proper promo tour.

I want the tour.....this is why bob doesn't do so well selling his fights. He stuck in the past. The promotion is equally as important as the fight. u think they ain't gon cover the tours on ESPN for this fight. Imagine Floyd and kinney goin at it atleast 2 times before the fight. I WANT THE TOUR!!!!!! I think he feels that this fight is so big that it doesnt need a tour like others do. Everyone knows both these guys and knows that this is the fight

Sure ... the tour and the promotion won't be as solid ... but hey, the fight in itself sells.

Pacquiao vs Floyd will happen in November in my guess. March is too soon. May is Pacquiao's time outside of boxing. Summer will be spent promoting the fight. Wether Floyd and/or Manny fights lesser opponents between those times to prepare is up to them. I just don't see this fight happening right away. Manny should fight Judah as tune-up (in summer) to prepare himself for Floyd's ring movement and speed.

so what happens if he losses? why risk it? its not like its a guaranteed win like david diaz. its a 50-50 fight at the very least? Pac is doing the right thing. have the elections now & use the popularity that he has now with everything he has done + the cotto win. Why risk fighting & losing then go & campaign? james carville says NO, have the elections then fight. lol..its a risk now..but just a few days ago you guys were running talking about Floyd didn't want it in March. Now he agrees to March and you all are making a bunch of excuses for Pac...the irony didn't you call out FLoyd because he "didnt want it in March"? answer with honesty cuz post history don't lie.
