    ESPN 30 for 30: Mayweather vs Pacquiao (future episode in the making)

    When all the smoke and dust clears from whatever happened (or didn't happen) I think this will easily be the best episode from the sports documentary series.

    -5 years in the making
    -Bob Arum vs. Al Haymon
    -The Miami Heat meeting
    -Ticket prices
    -PPV price
    -Fight of the century is a dull affair
    -Manny's shoulder-gate/salt water
    -Floyd's IV-gate/USADA-NSAC
    ... to be continued

    I suspect the 30/30 for the fight won't even be about the fight lol. I think the 30/30 is about the talks from 2010 to the NBA game stuff. The actual fight might get discussed in the epilogue. The IV stuff won't be mentioned cuz it'll be a non-issue by them. Thomas Hauser articles rarely if ever stand the test of time. No one is gonna care about Manny legit or not injury or mfing saltwater. But the focus of it will be on the talks before the fight not the fight or anything that transpired from it.

    And randomly I'd love to read a book about all the random nutty **** that went down with this fight getting made. I think that'd be a interesting read to see all the behind the scenes stuff from an impartial observer or as impartial as one can be.

      there will be an espn documentary about how floyd was a drug cheat and how for years usada and nsac covered it up. guaranteed. he'll be the lance armstrong of boxing.

      - 3 failed tests swept under the rug
      - abnormal t/e ratios
      - iv therapy for "rehydration"
      - floyd close with don hale who owns trt clinics
      etc. etc.

        I hope they wait another five years. When Pacquiao and Mayweather are both done and retired. I feel like much more info is going to come to light as time goes by
