    Anybody think March 13 is too soon?

    1. Is it enough time for Pac to fully recuperate ?
    2. Is it enough time to fully promote a potential "fight of the decade" ?

    Your thoughts....

      No. The sooner the better.

      I am tired of 5 months of promotion.

          4 months is fine.

          he can celebrate the holidays and get back to the gym mid-january.

          that's still an 8-week camp.



          pacquiao has fought with only 3-4 months between fights before.

          he didn't even get injured badly in the cotto fight. just bruising and cauliflower ears.

                This is why Pac is mentioned alongside, the SRR and Alis of this world. Pac is old school type boxers.

                If it was PBF it wouldnt be enough time, even though he dont take no punishment in fights. PBF needs a year to make one fight happen.

                  2/3 fights a year is pretty standard for top boxers nowadays. Which is crap when you compare it to how often some of the boxers fought way back.

                    As a boxing fan, Its never too soon to have a fight of this magnitude. However, if I were in either camp I would have pushed it back a bit, give enough time for Pac recoup and May's camp to formulate and prepare.
