President of Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Dana White wants Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather to win in their upcoming bouts. Mayweather will be facing Miguel Cotto on May 5 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, whereas Manny Pacquiao will face undefeated Timothy Bradley on June 9.
Mayweather vs. Miguel Cotto will have Cotto’s WBA junior middleweight on the line whereas Manny Pacquiao will defend his welterweight title in the June 9 bout.
While both the fights have already gained much hype, promoters are still trying hard to get fans more excited. This time, it was not Mayweather or Pacquiao who commented on their bouts but UFC President Dana White who jumped in. He was asked who his favourite is for the Mayweather vs. Cotto bout, and he said, “respect Cotto. I don't know, I just think Floyd's too good, too fast. It's gonna be an easy fight for Floyd. I'd bet three houses on that fight.?br /> Similarly, on Pacquiao’s fight, he said, “A lot of people are judging Pacquiao now because of his last fight. That Marquez fight was a stylistically bad match-up for him.?br /> Many analysts in light of his last bout with Marquez, which he did not win convincingly, are judging Pacquiao. This is the reason why it is being considered that Manny has lost his charm. However, White says this is not the case and Manny still is the tough fighter he was once. White believes Pacquiao will return to form and put up a better fight against Bradley. Showing his confidence over Pacquiao’s skills, White claimed, “Pacquiao is the real deal and he's going to win this fight in spectacular fashion.?br />
As of now, both the top-notch fighters, Pacquiao and Mayweather, are heading towards starting their training sessions for the fight. Timothy Bradley is a tough fighter with an undefeated streak, whereas Miguel Cotto has exposed his softer side quite a lot. This is the reason why Bradley as an opponent is more dangerous for Pacquiao than Cotto for Mayweather. When it comes to Bradley, chances are 50/50 of either’s win, whereas in Mayweather’s case, 70 percent chances are that Mayweather will win.
