Comments Thread For: Atlas Blasts Arum, Talks Mayweather-Pacquiao Outcome

[richardt]

On fight news dot com today WBA president Mendoza is expecting Mayweather to agree in the next few hours to the fight.

[komandante]

Look who's talking Teddy Bear Atlas. Can somebody listen please.

[marvin douglas]

I still say fight will be May 19, so Arum can show off the new stadium.

[PACnPBFsuck]

Atlas has said the same thing 2 weeks in a row on FNF.

[komandante]

atlas is right with everything except for the pot shot thing. mayweather takes it to the lefty's with the straight right. we saw that against judah,mitchel,corley,and ortiz.pac is a one dimensional,no defense,no jab southpaw with speed.which is why he can't beat marquez and mayweather will destroy him.

Marquez always fell short fighting Pac and will always whinge. Floyd will be surprised cause Pac will kick his ass.

[rambov]

We all know the outcome of this fight.

[richardt]

Arum is like Trump, materialistic. So I could see Arum with his big ego wanting to show off a new Stadium. May 19 can work if Mayweather is not legally tied to May 5th or if he can change the date.

[marvin douglas]

Mayweather can change the date with no problem. I don't even think it would require a motion be filed or a specific ruling by the court. But if so, that could be easily accomplished.

Floyd's attorney's would simply have to file a motion to modify the court's earlier ruling (if that ruling specifically required Floyd to fight on May 5th.).

The court would grant the motion without question. The judge already gave Floyd until June 1, to report to jail, so I am quite sure she would allow the fight to take place on the 19th.

The reasons for allowing Floyd to remain free until June are just as valid whether the fight takes place on the 5th or 19th. Remember, the court delayed Floyd's reporting date because the fight would help stimulate the Vegas economy.

Its amazing how much the Manny hype machine worked,but the true hardcores even with Mayweathers inactivity realized early on who would win this fight,i never saw it being close and you can go nearly 3 years back in my posts.

Ditto, I had Floyd stopping Manny.

[richardt]

How I see the fight - the first 2 rounds Pac crowds Mayweather....wins them, then Mayweather starts timing Pac with brilliant counters. Pac's work rate decreases like all Mayweather's opponents and he gets frustrated. Mid rounds Pac stuns or drops Mayweather, Mayweather collects himself perfectly and snaps Pac's head back repeatedly with booming rights and dominates to the end to a 116 to 110 or 118 to 110 decision.
