I didn't even notice Triple H. I was trying to figure out if it was actually Beiber :lr He's gonna need to do more than that for some street cred.

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Justin Bieber/Triple H/Fiddy Cent. I'm deferring to Cookie Monster on this one.

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

50 Cent :confused:

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Those who know me know I am not a fan of Floyd Mayweather. That being said, he came to fight last night, did not run away, and soundly beat a good fighter.

But I still hope Manny knocks his block off.

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

I do appreciate Pretty Boy for calling out Arum as the reason the fight can't happen. :hm

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

He was really trying to change public opinion about himself personally in the 2 post fight interviews.

Didn't change mine, he is just a manipulator and a self-absorbed doucherod.

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

He finally fought a fight I wasn't pissed for watching, but he is a complete ass. I think he realizes that the public isn't buying all his BS about why he won't fight Pacquiao any longer, but I am not ure where he is going with this recent change of attitude. In the end, he still probably comes up with a new excuse. :hm

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Hopefully 20 years in prison. :r

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Eh, I'm not really excited to see the fight anymore. Pacquiao's last fight seemed like it had no heart in it. I'm thinking he's becoming more of a politician than a boxer. I also think that Mayweather is just looking to retire with a super big payout, win or lose. Winning would just be the icing on the cake.

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

I'm not a fan of Mayweather never have been but in this case I think Manny keeps dodgeing him, why not just take the blood test and fight.. if you got nothing to hide take the test. I'm sure there is a lot more going on but thats just my Opinion

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Pacquiao agreed to random bloodtesting over two years ago. His one stipulation is that he wouldn't on the day of the fight.

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

I know but still get it done for gods sake before boxing get totally engulfed MMA :gary

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Another thing Manny hasn't agreed to is the fight money Mayweather had offered. Mayweather offered him $50M of the take, which could exceed $400M. Not exactly a fair split. :sh

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Manny is dodging Big Mouth? Please. :rolleyes:

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

:tpd:







;s

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Yeah, pretty much what I was thinking.

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Yea no way Manny is dodging Mayweather. Mayweather needs to concede on a few things to make this fight happen. Problem is I don't think Mayweather thinks he needs this fight, when in all actuality his legacy will be tarnished if he doesn't fight Pacquaio

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Mayweather goes to jail today. Can't say I'm not a little happy because he is getting what he deserves but it also means for the next 87 days we won't get any closer to seeing the fight everyone wants to see (except Mayweather)

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Can an Admin change the thread title. It is just patently false. This fight isn't getting closer and never will. Every time this thread pops up again it is false advertising. :D

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

I will leave it, Jason, and we can call it "irony". :r

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

I'll arm wrestle you for it ! :su


On second thought, better pick a better admin for that, maybe Tyr. :r

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

C'mon, Jason....you crap bigger than him!

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

I was taught never to pick a fight I couldn't win. I think Mayweather was taught the same lesson.

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Maybe he won't have that option in jail? :sl :lr

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Lol. Well in the words of my CO brother, "That scrub is sitting most the day in the LT's office talking boxing and having lunch, and that is IF the warden isn't a boxing fan. Then they will escort him back to his private cell".

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

I bet he is probably right, Jason. And the rich get richer....

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Yahoo Sports:

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Pops just read the same article on ESPN potential fight

We will finally see if Mayweather is serious about facing Pacquiao

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Not holding my breath, Son. :(

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Same. If it does happen watch the PPV fee be through the roof though. I would'nt be shocked at something well over a $100.

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

And I will be one of the suckers paying it.

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Me too cause it will be like seeing a coworker with wings ;) :r

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Not a Pacquiao fight but Mayweather will be fighting Canelo Alvarez 9/14 at a catchweight of 152 :wo

http://espn.go.com/boxing/story/_/id...lvarez-sept-14

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

My money is on Canelo :tu

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

This is going to be good!!!! finally worth the money you will pay for it... I hope

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

I will be rooting for Canelo for sure, but no way would I bet money against Big Mouth Floyd. :2

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

:r I think they both have the same punching speed but I also think Canelo hits harder. Bad thing is I think Canelo is too young and will try to go for the knock out early and that will be his downfall. :2

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

I would pay big money to see Canelo knock Big Mouth on his arse, Jason. :tu

On the other hand, I would wager a 5'er of good cigars on Big Mouth if it came down to it. ;)

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Voting with my wallet - no mayweather ppv dollars from me till he fights Manny. Although sadly I think time may have run out on what should have been.

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Agreed on the window possibly being shut, I am not sure Manny is the fighter he was a couple years ago....sad that this fight didn't happen then. Canelo may have the best chance at this point, but he will need to fight a super intelligent fight.

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Canelo vs Mayweather next weekend. I will definitely be watching.

I don't think we will ever see Mayweather vs. Pacquiao now. Looks like the time has passed unless Pacquiao fights someone, wins, and that is enough to bring interest back to this fight.

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

I agree with you, Son, I think the time has past.

I know Big Mouth is a big favorite...that being said, Let's Go Canelo! :bx

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Lol this thread again? It has run off circled around and came back up more than Mayweather himself during a fight.

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Just when you thought you were out....Big Mouth pulled you back in.

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Man I love boxing but I just can't push the buy button on a big mouth fight. Too much dancing around the ring without enough punching. I watched my DVD of PAC man vs margarito last week and that was a great fight. So Tom and anyone else, let me ask you. Am I missing something by not watching this guy dance around? Do I need to appreciate his boxing skills in another way? Does Canelo actually have a decent chance of winning?

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

John, the price for the Big Mouth fight certainly gives me pause. When I bite on his fights, it's just hoping this might be the time he hits the canvas. I know he is an excellent "boxer", but his fights usually leave me cold.

Bar in town is showing it for a $10 cover, I will likely go there to watch rather than pony up $75 to see it at home.

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

I can't stand Mayweather's personality. I do appreciate his boxing skills though.

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

John there probably is somewhere near you that plays it or invite 10 friends over and split it :)

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Broke down and paid the scratch for the fights, that Garcia - Mathisse fight might end up being the sleeper.

Going to fire up an Edmundo Dantes for the headliner in hopes that Canelo pulls off the upset.

Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground
 

Watched the fight with a brother and some good cigars. Witnessed Floyd tactically breakdown another fighter. The Money Team!!
