So, it looks like this is going to happen.

"I'm on vacation for about a year, about a year," Mayweather said. "As soon as we come off vacation, we're going to cook that little yellow chump. We ain't worried about that. So they ain't gotta worry about me fighting the midget. Once I kick the midget ass, I don't want you all to jump on my d---. So you all better get on the bandwagon now. ... Once I stomp the midget, I'll make that mother f----- make me a sushi roll and cook me some rice."

That's it. He's banned from NSBB.

anyone getting the fight tonight?

 

I bought it. It was a clinic. Pac felt him out for about the first round and half of the second, then went to work. The hand speed and ability to break right through Margarito's defense was ridiculous.

 

I don't see how Mayweather ducks him. This fight has to happen. I can't imagine, when it comes down to it, that Mayweather would pass on $50 million just because he's afraid to lose his perfect record.

 

Thing is, when I think about that fight, I think Mayweather could make it awfully boring. Pac would come forward like he did against Margarito, but Mayweather wouldn't just stand there. He would dance.

it's gotta happen now, pac sent the dude to the hospital, if he tries to duck him now it will be pac that is regarded as the greatest pound-for-pound and not him. he's got to beat pac.

Totally agreed, when I was reading some of the commentary this morning about the fight, there were several references to how Pac was now clearly the best fighter in the world. Dan Rafael at ESPN said:

 

When you watch Pacquiao ply his trade, you are not only watching the best fighter in the world -- and there is no question about it at this point -- you are watching one of the greatest fighters of all time.

 

It almost seemed like Rafael was trying to goad Mayweather on behalf of both himself and every boxing fan in the world who knows this fight has to happen. Hey, if that's what it takes.

Glad I didn't hand over the $65 for what, by all accounts, was a snoozefest.

 

Floyd needs to stop being a bitch and make this fight.

 

But at least if Pac fights JMM this fall, you know there won't be a repeat of Mosley's performance. Marquez is too proud for that.

Boxing needs this fight to happen.

PBF is fighting Victor Ortiz on September 17.

 

At least before he could claim he was ducking MP due to his ongoing legal troubles.

 

But Ortiz should bring an interesting fight. He showed he could handle with Berto, who probably has the fastest hands this side of Floyd.

Finally.

 

When this thread was first posted 5 YEARS AGO it was reported they'd be making around $40 million for the right now the split is looking like $120 million for Floyd and $80 million for Pac.

 

They are fighting approximately 5 years too late. I certainly no longer care. And I'm actually surprised that many people do.
