Didn't see a thread for up to 4 pages in OT so made this.

I got the old guy who's not as over-the-hill as the slightly less old guy.

MW can't just stand and defend all night. If it goes to a D, pac will outwork him. MW has to bring the heat. This will be an amazing clash of offense vs defense.

Pac man. Hope he pounds the mayweiner Jr.

From the OP: so this fight is entirely organized by mayweather's production company?

Amazing clash, yeah right, typical Lameweather boring ass 12 round decision. I do hope I am wrong and Manny knocks the fucker out and into a coma.

No, a lot of opposing forces had to come together to make this fight happen. If I remember correctly, even the commentary team is half-HBO, half-Showtime.

 

[Cal166]

The fight's total purse is estimated to top $200 million. Mayweather gets 60% of that and Pacquiao gets the rest, no matter who wins, according to the contract.

Both Wins in a way.

Exactly. It's amazing this even happened.

In general this is why MMA is much more exciting than boxing. Literally anything can happen since you can have infinite more scenarios due to NOT just using your arms for punching.

Especially if the outcome is really close and controversial. Then it will generate $250 million or more for a rematch. But that's pretty unlikely. Mayweather ducked Manny long enough for Manny's fighting style to catch up with him. He's taken a lot more punishment than Mayweather and it shows. I don't think he has the intensity or hand speed to get through Floyd's defense. So it will be, as mentioned above, another "typical Lameweather boring ass 12 round decision". And that's probably for the best. If it's a one-sided snoozefest at least we'll be spared the hype of doing this again. Too bad Mayweather is such a pussy, it would have been a good fight 7 years ago.

I think Pac has enough to out point MW if he tries and defend all night.

 

[clamum]

I hope Pac wins.

 

[AznAnarchy99]

It's gonna be like how everyone said Canelo would knock Mayweather out until he gave him a boxing lesson.

TMT baby all day.

 

[smackababy]

I think, regardless of what happens, I am going to lose this one. I am watching it with a Filipino family, so I am prepared for my ears to bleed from screaming. =( It makes it even worse they don't watch boxing, so every punch thrown by Manny will get a scream and every punch taken by Manny will get a slightly louder scream.

Of close to 40 boxing people speaking their opinion on who will win the Mayweather-Pacquiao fight, an overwhelming 38 said Mayweather. There was only one dissenter. When asked, under the cloak of anonymity who they wanted to win, if given a choice, the group responded overwhelmingly in favor of Pacquiao -- with no dissenters. That is a spotless 39-0 for Pacquiao.

Agreed.

BWW makes a shit ton of money and they can't spend $5100 for the fight?

Depending on the location, each franchise might not actually make that much money. The one in Montgomery, AL shut down (even after the Hooters shut down) due to the ridiculous building rent that was being charged. Even being the only place one could watch sporting events and have a beer wasn't enough to sustain an incredibly high rent and slow times (at lunch, there would be one or two tables on most days) in a city of 350k. A few local bars ended up spending to get fights and such because there was literally no place to watch it outside your home.

That sounds like a lot just for one location.
