Comments Thread For: Like it or Not - Mayweather-Pacquiao II is Back on The Radar

[Larry the boss]

I don't think we need Mayweather vs. Manny 2! The fact that it's a popular question is sad itself. What we need is Canelo vs. GGG, Khan vs. Brook, Wilder vs. Fury, DSG vs. Broner, Loma vs. Walters, Ward vs. Kovalev, LSC vs. Rigo, etc. Boxing is loaded with talent! Floyd and Manny have done there part, now let's move on!

AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..i wanna see this new generation mix it up..the problem here is some of these posters only followed the sport to suck off Manny and now that he has loss they dont know what to do...notice they literally NEVER post about anything else

[GrandpaBernard]

Man people refuse to let these 2 go....its like these are the only 2 boxers they know..the only people who wanna see it again are the p@ctards because after all those years of **** talking Manny failed them.

They just can not believe he lost to Mayweather, hell anytime Manny loses they refuse to acknowledge it and demand a rematch. They even called Juan a coward for not fighting him a 5th time after he almost killed Manny.

These 2 need to retire, and let the new breed of boxers take over, the **** is stale and old. Time stands still for no one.

They won't be happy until manny dies fighting Floyd.

I think its possible too. Mayweather said he ordered the Pacman fight. My guess is he wanted to see if Manny still has anything left to sell a rematch. Its clear he misses the spotlight. And there is still so much money left on the table for a rematch.

Is there interview for this?

Hatred and bias set aside? Ready? Barrera vs Prince Nas was a boring fight. Barrera fought a tentative, safe fight which Nas was totally unprepared for, and not to mention totally drained, injured and mismanaged by Suarez and Manny (RIP). Barrera, himself, said to Merchant he didn't want to engage lest he gets knocked out. Marquez vs Pac 4? Anyone who follows boxing knows Marquez was roided to the gills to render Pac unconscious. Landed the same punch previously...nothing, but all of a sudden he's a KO artist GTFOH.

Pacquiao had two knockdowns, full of energy and exciting. Mayweather was like a wet turd against Berto. That little shuffle and then collapsing to his knees at the end was beyond pathetic, I had to sell my TV and get a new one, I felt so dirty and violated afterwards.

you do know he has more ko's then Manny right?? all of the sudden? he has 40 ko's in his 56 wins

Punch out put was low in both fights. Its also common sense too. You have your arsenal, your game plan. Now you're hurt and you cant let your opponent know so they dont increase their output. Thats a lot of shlt tot think about in a mega fight...while in pain. So you do the best you can with what you got because you only have one good arm to use more of. Of course that reason unfortunately is gonna decrease an out put of punches. Then the amount of landed with floyd is gonna be significantly low because Floyd is good at slipping punches.

Manny Bradley...Manny even said himself what he did in this fight. He was way more cautious. Punches were more crisp and conservative. Didnt have to throw as manny punches. Big difference in choosing to throw and not being able too throw what you want when you want or need. Age i agree plays a good roll. Manny fighters get more conservative and wiser as they keep fighting. My point stands the same. Two different fights two different circumstances. Output of punches has nothing to do with each other.

Hold on, according to the same posters, Floyd already knew Manny was hurt, so the point about not letting your opponent know seems like an excuse. Manny threw with conviction late in the fight, he just wasn't landing. That is not a sign of an injury.

Yes they are 2 different fights, but in both fights he had career low punch outputs for 12 rds. Now it is fair to suggest Manny knew he didn't need to throw a lot to beat Tim. Beating him 2x before (imo) does give you insight and makes a gameplan easier to develop.

In the end, this (alleged) major injury that (allegedly) cost him time in training camp for Floyd, thus making training more difficult cost him a total 10 punch difference. This is less than 1 per round.

It defies logic that one chooses to throw 1 less per round in the fashion you suggest in this post.

the way these two hold their money loosely, albeit spending it differently, only the need for more money would make these two come out of retirement. not the drama, not the buzz. not the intrigue.

Yes, compared to his previous fights it was boring. Barrera wanted to kill Hamed, but had to stifle all that anger or he'd play into Hamed's game and face the same fate as Kelley. When he felt his had had the fight in the bag in R12 he thought, "**** it.." and unleashed his rage and banged Hamed's head against the turnbuckle. Also, compate Hamed's body and face to his previous fights, he looked half-dead against Barrera.

Not trolling, but come on...Marquez's PED abuse is so obvious and hardly disputed by anyone.

You seem to have forgotten that Barrera also knocked out Kelley.

So Marquez's PED abuse, and Lampley crying that his win over Pac was glorious, the same HBO network, where Lamply cried recently because Pac beat Bradley? Apparently Lampley cries because Marquez was PED cheat.

the excuses aren't even original.

Only Mayweather fans lie to themselves about this. Ignoring all the obvious sht. Marquez is(atleast was) nowhere near the puncher Pacquiao is.

Marquez has alot of KO's because he has a relatively weak resume.

In the context of their trilogy, the KO in the fourth is "sudden" and highly suspect.

Well, that's the problem. When it comes to Naseem, Americans don't watch all his fights prior to Kelley and Barrera.

OJ killed his wife, but not according to you. Some white guy framed him. That is all.
