Comments Thread For: Mayweather-Pacquiao II talks initiated

Mayweather vs Pacquiao II is utterly insane work.

[Boxing 112]

0 interest. Although one route that could build the hype could be, IF Manny does fight Rolly or Crocker in January and wins the belt, fighting Mayweather in the summer with a world title on the line and Mayweather the chance to beat Hopkins record that would be a big selling point that would help. I think it is unlikely as firstly although Rolly and Crocker are not exactly great they should beat Manny. Manny is one of my fav fighters but Barrios was trash still was catching him with jabs, Manny looked better than expected for his age but still looked slow and not all that great in terms of continuing to fight at the highest level. IF somehow Manny was able to get Rolly or Crockers title still see it unlikely a 49 yr old Mayweather fighting a 47 yr old Manny in a pro fight. 147 division is trash right now usually one of the best but right now not even a top 5 division

it makes sense given the current climate but its just going to be a much worse version of the last one

Fuck DAZN! They started out with a $99/yr subscription in the US, then pulled the old bait and switch after about three years. AND the quality of their fights went to shit. They thought they were going to take over boxing after HBO and SHOWTIME stopped airing matches, but it never happened.

Yessir!!! I've been screaming this ever since they came in 2018. Their business model was never going to work over here

I don't care if it is free. The only way I watch those two geezers fight again is if they pay ME.

1st WE'LL SEE if Floyd and manny get pass Mike and Rolly

either gets ko'd and this rematch is out the window

1 fight is never enough. Whilst the first fight in 2015 was 118-110 Mayweather by traditional scoring methods, on the Nash scoring system, every round without a knockdown is 10-10, so it was a 120-120 draw. And just like with Fury vs Uysk, these guys need to fight at least 4 times to show who is the best, if not 5 or 6. Mayweather vs Pacquiao 2 and 3 can take place in 2026, and 4 and maybe 5 in 2027, then we'll know who is the better man. Nash out - His Majesty

------------------
So in fight like the PAC vs Rios where PAC out landed Rios in every round while beating Rios like a pinata, the fight is still 120-120 because there was no knockdown. Is that what you are saying?

[Oregonian]

All Floyd has to do is sign the contract and fight Pacquiao again. What's so hard about that? Nobody wants to waste time watching his phony fake fights vs the mafia don's grandson or a 60 yr old. These are circus sideshows. Tell me why can't the lil coward just STFU and fight Pacquiao again?

I'm guessing you did not read my response to you so go ahead just regurgitate your narrative on a loop.

Phony fake fights vs Mafia don's grandson? You mean like PAC vs DK Yoon (a YouTuber from Korea) or the ATG kickboxer, Rukiya Anpo?

Were those two fights phony and fake? YES or NO? It's a pretty simple question.

Yes. If he beat him like a piņata, then he'd have put him down. He clearly did not, so it's purely opinion. The Nash scoring system is the solution to all of life's problems, along with alcohol, which, according to Homer Simpson, is both the solution to and the cause of all of lifes problems, so let's all think about that for twenty minutes. Nash out - His Majesty

---------------------
In 2010, PAC landed 474 punches to Margarito's 77. The brutal fight left Margarito with severe damage to his face, but the combined 551 punches landed made it one of the highest-volume battles in recent history.
The fight should ABSOLUTELY be scored 120-120 because PAC failed to stop him. And that is 100% fair.

As for alcohol, you are 100% correct.
