Kentucky Derby, playoff hockey, & Mayweather-Paquaio.
Gonna be one heckuva sports day.
Fight should've been 5-6 years ago but still going to be something special to watch. I'm a Pacman guy but have always felt that Mayweather was/is the better fighter. My initial feeling is Mayweather by decision.
Both fighters still looks like they are at the top of their game. If anything, all we lost from 5 years of waiting is a little bit of hype, since Floyd didn't want to fight Manny when he was white hot and Manny went to sleep against Marquez.
But from the previous fights of both men, it looks like they still are the best of the best, pound for pound. Should be worth the wait.
I think that a few years ago, Manny would have had a great shot. At this stage of their careers, though, I think that Mayweather is going to kill him.
I disagree.
And that's no bias. There's a reason Floyd ducked Manny for 5 years. And Manny looks like he hasn't lost his hand speed and is still showing that tough chin.
Manny will put Floyd down, maybe not to sleep, but Floyd will kiss the canvas.
I don't know, man. Pacman hasn't knocked somebody out in five or six years, and he's lost twice since the Mayweather hype began. (Granted, only one of those losses was legit.)
And that legit loss was caused by being too careless, he was, in your own words, killing Marquez until he landed that beautiful counter.
He has been careful ever since. And sure, the power may not be there anymore, but looking at his last three fights, c'mon. Timothy Bradley was eating gloves, Chris Algieri was eating gloves. Those two have strong chins. I don't know if Floyd has a tougher chin than the other two that Manny fought last...
And Manny will go all out on this. He won't be the careful Manny that was what we saw in the last three fights. He's going to go back to reckless, yet entertaining Manny. This is could be LAST fight, could be his last payday (big one at that), I doubt he's going to hold back.
