Official Floyd Mayweather- Manny Pacquiao Postfight aftermath discussion

Any thoughts on Pac's sparring partners so far.
Kenneth Sims JR
Rashidi Ellis
Both throw a fast straight right and have some hand speed.
But their defense and footwork is lacking.

this why my confidence is at an all time high, Floyd is a mastermind he only takes fights he knows he is almost 100 percent sure he can win easy, he revealed this to Fight hype today, I told you Floyd is smart he even said its not about working hard its working smarter, he analyzes opponents for months before picking them.

Anyone who bets on Pac is a fool, you will lose, always bet on Floyd he only takes fights at the right time he said it the timing was right to fight Pac now, similar to how Sugar Ray fought Hagler when he saw slowing down in him.

"To me, it's just another day. It's just another fight. I mean, when you just look at the tale of the tape, I have a longer reach, I'm taller, I'm stronger, and I'm more accurate. I think I seen a major change in Pacquiao," Mayweather stated in a recent interview with FightHype.com. "He may not be the same fighter, but this is a guy that I cannot overlook. He got here somehow and some way. You never take nothing for granted because anything can happen."

You really think Floyd took this fight on his own? Lots of rumors Moonves forced it.

Not impressed.

Me neither, I hope Roach is just using them for Manny to get a feel for some punches that Floyd throws.
They're way to inexperienced.

Manny Pacquiao records entrance song for fight with Floyd Mayweather Jr

Pacquiao records song that will be played during ring entrance on 2 May
Lalaban Ako Para sa Pilipino translates to ‘I am going to fight for Filipinos’
Welterweight scheduled to fly to LA on Saturday to open training camp


Manny Pacquiao is leaving no detail unattended as he prepares for his showdown with Floyd Mayweather Jr in Las Vegas.

On Thursday, the Filipino puncher recorded a song that will be played while he walks to the ring on 2 May at the MGM Grand Garden Arena, GMA News reported.

Lalaban Ako Para sa Pilipino (I Am Going to Fight for Filipinos) was written by composer and frequent songwriting collaborator Lito Camo.
Pacquiao has recorded a song that will be played as he makes his ring entrance on 2 May.

The Tagalog lyrics from a clip of the song that aired Friday on Philippine late-night newscast Saksi translate to: “We are going to fight / I am going to fight to the world / Fight for your name / I am Filipino / We are Filipino”.

Camo said the song is not only about boxing, but a broader message about overcoming challenges in daily life to become an inspiration to others.

The eight-division champion is no stranger to the recording studio. Pacquiao released his debut album Laban Nating Lahat Ito in 2006 under Star Records and sop****re effort Pac-Man Punch under MCA Records in 2007. His English-language debut – a cover of Dan Hill’s 1977 ballad Sometimes When We Touch – cracked the US adult-contemporary charts in 2011.

Pacquiao’s near-obsessive multitasking have kept him occupied throughout his ascent to global superstardom. In addition to recording artist, the welterweight titleholder’s side jobs include film actor, professional basketball player and congressman of Sarangani province.

After a week of light training in Manila, Pacquiao is scheduled to fly from the Philippines to Los Angeles on Saturday to open training camp under Freddie Roach at the Wild Card Boxing Club in Hollywood.

The MGM Grand sports book lists Pacquiao as roughly a 2/1 underdog against Mayweather Jr, who is undefeated in 47 professional fights.

Yeah, the rumor is, it'll be like two dates. One like March 10th or 11th, and another the week of the fight.
