    WOW...more ESPN guys counting out Floyd

    These two don't know **** about boxing either but that's two more for Pac

    Pardon the Interruption.



    Tony wondered if Floyd still has the desire because money changes people...and I think he mentioned something about if Floyd's skills are the same??? not sure...I'm cooking food at the same time while still typing up.

    Michael said Floyd is going down and that Pac is like Tyson.






    I bring them up like the others because this is the "casual" fan. And it's great hype for the Fight. Pac's going to the betting favorite so if you want to bet Floyd, you'll win some money if he wins.

        Styles make fights. Mayweather is an A+ Technician at boxing. He will outbox Pacquiao or adjust if he has to.....

          i guess jmm is overlooked.

            It's a great time for us boxing fans, boxing is really back in the spot light big right now and there are still big fights to come (Cotto, Mayweather/Marquez and of course, Pac vs Mayweather if all goes according to plan...).

            If boxing is dead then surely it's a super Zombie out for blood!

              i think it's great that pac is picking up where odlh has left off. he is bringing alot of attention to the sport, and making alot of people excited. my friends that are casual fan are becoming more hardcore since pac beat odlh. now they are asking me all kinds of questions, nad wanna get in hte normal ppv/fight night group of the fellas so they can get into the sport on a more in depth basis. i' m glad, and it's even better that some of them were or are mma fans. i like the crossover appeal.

                You mention money changing Floyd, but with the money he has already made, Manny can live in ultimate luxury in the Philipines for the rest of his life.

                Also if Mayweather blows out JMM, he'll be the betting favorite over Pacquaio.

                  Boxing is the ultimate winner in the end when you have the most exciting fighter in the world, just happen to also be the best.

                    Sports programs (especially ESPN programs) are talking about the sport more now. Every show today on ESPN touched significantly on the fight. And now they are adding Mayweather's name to it, but more so as an opponent to Pacquiao and not the main guy. That is beautiful. Manny accomplished in 3 fights what Floyd NEVER did his entire career. And thats only Floyd's fault. But these guys are underestimating Mayweather and feel he is getting KO'd as well, im more than skeptical that will happen. You can't underestimate Floyd's skill, but his drawing power is easily overestimated.
