    Or should we boycott mayweather vs maidana? Loyal fans won't do it. Odds don't mean what they used to.

        I like watching Pacquiao fight. I think he's fighting an interesting opponent who earned his spot by upsetting a fan favorite. I think it's worth paying to see.

        Invite a few friends over to split it and you're talking 10 or 15 dollars here, not exactly breaking the bank.

          Yes, Lomachenko's fight provides added incentive to buy this PPV.

          And I like both Algeiri and Pacquaio, neither of whom are afraid to fight outside their home countries. They are true Ring Warriors who would NEVER demand their opponents wear gloves with extra padding.

            Manny deserves a 'tune-up.' The guy's been fighting elite opponent after elite opponent for the last, I don't know, 5-8 years

              Simple, Floyd will tell anyone who listens that He is the best ever, but looks for reasons not to take fights. The reason Floyd gets called a cherry picker is due to selecting fighters who compliment his style, while offering no serious threat. Any advantage Floyd does not physically have on his side (gloves etc), He removes during the negotiation process.

              Manny is quite a humble chap and seems to take the rough with the smooth. He also seems to have genuine care for his people, which is in complete contrast to Floyd.

              The world is still recovering from almost financial collapse, with families losing their homes and eating in shelters. Floyd doesn't think twice about the position of his media followers when He is posting pics of all his money.

              A shameful waste of an influential position.

                Larry pointing out the contradiction. I agree with him.

                  I actually like the fight because Chris is a tall young undefeated boxer which is a style that would normally trouble PAC, so Im interested in seeing how PAC can get inside and do what Ruslan couldnt finish. Not digging the ppv but I will split it with friends, just as I will do with the Floyd fight.

                    exactly. algieri and pacquiao are true warriors.

                    and definitely a good move to include lomachenko, who i believe will take over boxing once pac and floyd retires.

                      Here's why I'm not buying it. I pay $9.99 a month for both WWE Network and UFC Fight Pass. I'm also ordering the UFC 178 PPV card cuz I'm more excited to see 3 fights on that card compared to the 1 fight on the Mayweather PPV. So that's $75 that I'm dropping already in September. Now, Floyd and Chinos first fight was good. I was upset that Floyd made him use different gloves cuz it just made look like a lil p*ssy with mad pull. In the rematch, he's doing the same thing again with the gloves and I have a feeling he will move a lot more. The fight will be boring IMO. So I'm not buying it. PAC Algeri, a lot of what u said about Algeri is true. The thing is, I like the way PAC fights. And I'm sure he's gonna put a beating on him. We will also Have Lomachenko on the card. If I had to pick, I would do the PAC fight over the Floyd fight.
