PACMAN vs MAYWEATHER, JR: To be or NOT to be?
It sure is getting "REALLY HOT" between these two camps and as of date, confirmation of the much awaited fight, which is expected to be the highest-grossing bout in boxing history, has come to a halt over a dispute over drug testing.
One Yahoo (basketball)sports columnist Dan Wetzel deduced that "PACQUIAO can’t afford to pass on megafight".
But from another point of view (MINE), Mayweather JR (who is currently in brief retirement since June 2008)do need a BIG BANG for his comeback to the boxing scene.
Stats shows as follows:
Manny Pacquiao
Record: 50-3-2 (38 KOs)
Title: WBO welterweight champion
Last outing:: TKO12 over Miguel Cotto on Nov. 14
Previous ranking:: 1
Up next: Negotiations on for March 13 fight with No. 2 Floyd Mayweather
Analysis: Big fight may be sunk by drug testing dispute
Floyd Mayweather Jr.
Record: 40-0 (25 KOs)
Title: None
Last outing:: W12 over No. 6 Juan Manuel Marquez on Sept. 19
Previous ranking:: 2
Up next: Negotiations on for March 13 fight with No. 1 Manny Pacquiao
Analysis: Speed demon, defensive wizard
So...Will it be PACMAN vs MAYWEATHER, JR OR PACMAN vs Paulie Malignaggi comes March 13, 2010?
Well...I guess we'll have to wait till (this)Thursday next week for THE VERDICT.
pacquiao vs malignaggi if confirmed is a one sided game in favor of pacquaio. theres no way malignaggi can win over pacquiao. it should be pacquiao vs mayweather. its the megafight of the century in waiting
38KOs of Manny,
surely Mayweather does not want to be the 39KOs.
And after those silly talks of Mayweather camp, If I were Manny, I'll do the 39KOs in the 1st round.
there won't be much talk about it like the PACMAN-Mayweather bout...tsk tsk tsk
The boring boxing style of Mayweather will surely become the most exciting event on his entire career, the pound for pound king will make this fight so exciting, this could be a record-breaking PPV subscription of all time. This will all happen if Mayweather's team will just prepare and think for the fight and not on excuses. Malignaggi needs to prove more before a match to Pacman.
