Floyd Mayweather Jr vs. Manny Pacquiao Master Discussion Thread

[Bull24]

Manny already has the mental edge, Mayweather has been afraid of him since Manny knocked out Ricky H.

You said Floyd fights guys at their best weights and doesn't need catchweights.

Saul is still undefeated.

A loss is a loss, no matter the weight. Canelo agreed to fight at a catch weight probably because he didn't believe it would hurt him. He may have even thought it would help him gain speed, but Mayweather was still too fast for him.

REALLY? Cotto BEAT up Floyd? It wasn't a close fight at all! Cotto fought really hard and made Mayweather work, but come on now bro. I guess people really do see whatever they want...

Cotto did land more punches on Mayweather than we have ever seen before. The only other guy who even came close was Castillo.

So tired of this...

Pacquiao challenges Mayweather anew - for charity



GENERAL SANTOS CITY, Philippines — World boxing eight-division champion Manny Pacquiao dared undefeated American boxer Floyd Mayweather, Jr. to face him in the ring and donate all the proceeds of the fight to charities around world.
“I’m not desperate to fight him just for the sake of money or material things. I’m not the one seeking this fight rather it’s the boxing fans all over the world,” Pacquiao, also Sarangani’s legislator, told the Inquirer by phone Saturday night.
Pacquiao said he was willing to fight Mayweather anytime, anywhere – and even without receiving a single centavo as prize money.
“I am ready to submit myself to any kind of stringent drug testing. Above all, I challenge him to include in our fight contract that both of us will not receive anything out of this fight. We will donate all the proceeds of the fight – guaranteed prize, should there be any, gate receipts, pay-per-view and endorsements – to charities around the world,” Pacquiao said.
Pacquiao added that if Mayweather is not afraid to fight him, the latter should agree to tangle with him in the ring.
Pacquiao said he has nothing more to prove in the world of boxing.
“I have carved my own niche in the annals of boxing. There’s no reason why should I be desperate to fight him? But since the boxing fans worldwide are seeking and demanding for Pacquiao-Mayweather fight, I don’t want to disappoint them,” he said.
During his trip to South Africa last Wednesday, Mayweather suggested Pacquiao’s renewed desire to make their mega fight happen came out of desperation after the latter’s back-to-back losses to Timothy Bradley and Juan Manuel Marquez in 2012, and his tax problems.
Pacquiao, however, clarified he has moved on from that losses as proven by his classic ring performance against Brandon “Bambam” Rios in Macau, China last November.
“As to my tax problem, my lawyers are fixing it already. I’m paying my taxes religiously. It is just a matter of reconciling our records with the tax agencies both here and abroad. Should there be any discrepancy, rest assured, I will settle it. I’m a lawmaker and I’m a law-abiding citizen,” Pacquiao said.
As to the reported retirement of Mayweather in 2015, Pacquiao said that is the American boxer’s tactic to avoid facing him in the ring.
“The public clamor for Pacquiao-Mayweather bout is getting stronger. The only way he (Mayweather) can avoid facing me in the ring is to retire from boxing,” Pacquiao said.
Pacquiao challenged Mayweather, saying “Floyd, if you’re a real man, fight me. Let’s do it for the love of boxing and for the fans. Let’s do it not for the sake of money. Let’s make the boxing fans happy.”
