    Comments Thread For: Frank Warren Gives Take on Mayweather vs. Pacquiao

    Remember that old refrain: “Why are we waiting, oh why are we waiting?” It is one the world of boxing has been humming these past few days - actually more like weeks, months, even years.

    We are still waiting for Floyd Mayweather Jnr. and Manny Pacquiao to get it on. Deadlines have passed and so far nothing has happened. I have long doubted it ever will. Lets hope I’m wrong.

    It is still some distance away from being a done deal, whatever anyone says.
    The latest word was that the $300 million welterweight Super Fight finally would be announced during Sunday’s Super Bowl, before a captive TV audience of 100 million. But not a peep.

    The only word was from the ever-capricious Money Man himself. While soaking up the Caribbean sun in Jamaica, he tweeted:

    "Laying back, relaxing, enjoying good weather, palm trees, and piña coladas. While they continue to lie about making the fight... I'm just going to continue to travel and explore the world on my private jet. #FightNotMadeYet.”

    Frank Warren is wrong in that Larry Holmes was "ROBBED".. Holmes lost by a country mile against Michael Spinks in their first fight. Spinks dominated Holmes and easily won 10 of the 15rds.. Holmes fought a far better fight in their return bout, with many feeling he was unlucky not to win. But he clearly lost that first fight.

      Whether or not Spinks won isn't my problem. My problem is that Spinks must have been using performance enhancing drugs to gain 24.75 pounds of muscle in fourteen weeks time - that's a 14% increase - and it was all muscle. Of course this is boxing, so big deal. Right?

        I have a difference of opinion on the Holmes Spinks fight, than above. I certainly don't think Spinks clearly won. I remember thinking they robbed Holmes after the decision was announced.

              Wouldnt be surprised if the fight does indeed happen, a $100 price tag to go with. With all this bullshtting about the fight, from both sides, playing with the fans who pay them-i'd actually be happy to see that ppv flop, & for the record ill catch the for free on Utube.

                  He gained only 7-10 lbs the rest was normal dehydration weight , thats nothing for a guy thats 6 ft 2 and been keeping his weight down for years .

                  Everybody is on roids according to this forum , its the new silver bullet fired by ignorance .
