Floyd Mayweather Jr vs. Manny Pacquiao Master Discussion Thread

[Nay_Sayer]

Everything I post is accurate. It's my opinion and it's also common sense. I can see by your petty name calling that you are a fanboy and not on my level to even debate. Manny Pacquiao can punch. PERIOD. Goodbye.

Pacquiao's last KO was 5 years ago.

If he can punch so hard, why hasn't he KO'ed anyone lately?

[GOD-FR33]

Not about a KO.

I don't think the proper question is WHY hasn't he had a KO in recent years. You have to look at the opponents. Mosley had blisters on his feet and practically ran after Manny knocked him down or else he would've been stopped. Mosley has never run from an opponent. Cheeto was too big to be KOing. Manny still managed to hurt him on several occasions. Clottey came to survive and not fight. As big as he was, that's a shame. Marquez took KO punches in the 4th fight but because he brought something more than his natural ability in the ring that night, he managed to survive long enough for his roids to pay off. Bradley talked all that trash about how he had the heart to go toe to toe and he promised he would; he damn near broke both of his ankles running most of the fight. Rios claims Manny didn't hurt him but I KNOW he did on a couple of occasions. Rios has never "defended" in his career, all of a sudden he was covering up like it was a tornado or something. Last time I checked, you don't KO any of those fighters. Manny punches hard enough to make a fighter change the way they fight. If any of those fighters would've exchanged with him on a regular basis, they would've been stopped. You are disrespectful to the greatest fighter of this era by asking that question, man. Everyone knows that Manny can crack. Only a fanboy who knows nothing about boxing, says otherwise. Why aren't you asking Marcos Maidana why he didn't stop Broner? You think Broner would've went 12 with Manny? Do you honestly think that Maidana would go 12 with Manny? How about Garcia? Don't believe the hype. You will not see another fighter go up as many weight classes as Manny in your life-time. All of these fighters he fights that are bigger, end up running or fighting different once the bell rings. So there's your answer. So to be frank, Manny really STILL hasn't lost cleanly in over a decade.

IMO, Pacman looses to Garcia at this moment. Garcia is one of the most underrated fighters and always come up victorious. The fight with Matthysse was not even close.

I think Floyd is better now than he was in 09 and beats current/prime Pacquiao.

FLOYD MAYWEATHER KILLS RUMORS OF 2014 PACQUIAO CLASH; EXPOSES SHADY BUSINESS DEALS:





May 2015 looks like the date for May-PAC. Pacs contract finishes December 2014.

[LeadPunch]

Hell, yeah, they want to schedule it in 2054 when both guys are in the seventies. Any plan of projecting a fight more than 9 months ahead is a bad plan, so many things can happen in the meantime.

Ok.

Pacquiao's last opponent was a human punching bag who had never fought @ 147 - and yet Pacquiao couldn't put him down.

So to be frank, Manny really STILL hasn't lost cleanly in over a decade.

Lol.

Were you not watching on the night of Dec 8th 2012?

[alembic]

Can someone confirm this?

I'm looking for the video of an interview of Floyd mayweather jr. saying he wore the red,white and blue and fought with USA on his back in the Olympics and that pacquaio is not even from America but Americans get behind him.

Anyone found it?
