Default Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground

http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/box...ory?id=4705330

They have agreed to terms and are deciding on a date and venue for a fight. It will be at 147 pounds (welterweight). I cannot wait for this

hopefully it will be better than the last big money bout i watched between david haye and nik valuev, it was piss poor and haye was very very lucky in my opinion, it was his good last round that won it

I might actually consider paying money to watch this event. Failing that, I might convince a bunch of friends to come together at our B&M to pay for the fight so we can smoke and watch. That might actually be a better endeavor.

Nope, but what was the last time a big fight was held outside of Vegas? The other alternative is Atlantic City but it has been a while since I have seen a fight there.

Pacquiao has the heart and the drive, the will to win...Mayweather has the face of a baby and is a lame boxer, he boxes for points...I hope Pacquiao crushes his face

I hate Pretty Boy Floyd, but he is hardly a "lame boxer". He may not be a brawler or entertaining, but he certainly has serious boxing skilz.

Looks like the fight may not happen now. Paq-man won't fight with a olympic style drug testing. One source sited Pacquoiao is a little squemish with giving blood.

Mayweather is being a total sissy, trying to find anyway to get out of this fight. Pac said he would test right after the fight, but he doesn't want to have his blood drawn while he is training.

Default Re: Pacquiao-Mayweather bout gaining ground

For as much as I like Pacquiao, his class, his integrity in the ring and outside. At this point I'm questioning why he won't just say the hell with it and do the olympic style drug testing. The amount of blood they take is miniscule and will not effect oxygen levels in the body.

And being that Mayweather is from Michigan I might have to switch sides
