Both Mayweather and Pacquiao are overhyped fighters.

As a fan i dont even know how someone can say mayweather/Pac is the fight of the decade? much less a fight people will actually pay to see. Also roach is probably the biggest hypocrit in boxing right now, he hides under his disease.
    Well what fight since 2010 has been bigger than a potential Mayweather-Pacquiao fight? We are talking about this decade right?

    I do agree the fight isn't a great matchup because Mayweathers style will carve Pac up

      you see, YOU even said it yourself what fight would be bigger. WHY I mean who gives a crap how big the fight is. Im a boxing fan not these guys accountant,i wanna see a GOOD fight thats all i care about. i would get more entertainment out of a fnf than a mayweather/pac ppv any day of the week.

        Floyd is overated. Never has anyone did so little to get the acclaim of his fans. Floyd tells the world he is the greatest and his fans dont tell him the truth and he isnt. If they cared for Floyd they would tell him to get his ass in the ring and get a resume so he can be talked in the same sentence of the greats of yesteryear and Pac.

        Floyds fans are yes, yes men who dont tell Floyd the truth so arre hurting him in thelong run.

          Manny is overated. Never has anyone did so little to get the acclaim of his fans. Manny tells the world he is the greatest and his fans dont tell him the truth and he isnt. If they cared for Manny they would tell him to get his ass in the ring, take the tests, and get a resume so he can be talked in the same sentence of the greats of yesteryear and Floyd.

            Ha ha you loved what i said so copied me word for word. Pity you are wrong in that Pac dont go around saying he is the greatest. He knows the world of boxing says it so he dont have to.
            ONly floyds most die hard fans say he is the best, so Floyd has to selfproclaim.

              Uhh ESPN and Yahoo Sports have Floyd at #1.

              Put it this way, all credible boxing sources have Floyd @ #1 p4p.

              He will secure his spot even more when he dominates Cotto and Pac struggles against Bradley.

                No Pac is the no1, and one bad performance isnt going to change that. One bad performance is preferble to not fighting like floyd does.

                Pac became no1 when he started campaigning in the same weight as Floyd and showing him how you are supposed to fight at the 147 division. Basically after beating hatton and DLH there has been no looking back.
                Floyd hasnt been able to reclaim his position at the top.

                  You do not seem to understand that Mayweather is physically #1 on ESPN and Yahoo Sports. If Pac was clearly #1 then it would be set in stone, all boxing sources would have him @ #1....but they don't.

                  Also the best fighter gets paid the most...which is Floyd.

                    Pac is no1 as he is smaller beating guys at 147 better than Floyd did or could.
                    If Floyd was no1, there is no basis for Floyd being no1, other than they are using triangle theories that Floyd had less trouble with JMM than Pac did.

                    Pac has been the best since he beat DLH and Hatton and hasnt looked back since.

                      I get tired of some folk who come on here whinging about fighter A being overhyped and fighter B being overhyped. Come on guys get over yourselves. Those same folk are probably the type to say Jesus Christ was overhyped because he didn't jump off the cross and punch the Centurion who poked him with that spear soaked in vinegar then hopped on a donkey and knocked out Pontious Pilate with a straight right. Mayweather and Pacquaio deserve are doing their thing and getting paid darned well for it. Let em be because they won't be around fighting in two or three years time and you'll have someone other fighter to b1tch on.
