Manny Pacquiao vs Floyd Mayweather Jr.

[matcar]

I was born in 84 but one fight that could come close to the hype was the Oscar http://www.eastsideboxing.com/news.php?p=7543&more=1#De La Hoya and Felix Trinidad fight back in 1999.

I grew up watching Ali and Frazier and Ali and Foreman,then Hagler v Hearns and even Leonard v Hagler. I would lookforward to this fight like some of those.

The way Paquiao got nuclear detonated by Marquez, I doubt seriously if he'll ever fight Mayweather.

Mayweather has some of the best defense I've ever seen. Add that to his hand speed, placement, and agility, and I am very confident he would come out on top. He's a terrible human being but a better boxer.

By the time a fight could happen, Mayweather will be 36 and Pacquiao 34. Floyd ducked him when they were in their primes, it wouldn't be as interesting.

Reminds me of Roy Jones and Bernard Hopkins....

Manny has obviously lost a lot of skill, even though he was absolutely handling Marquez until he walked into that punch.

Jones and Hopkins first fight was back in 1993. Jones was definitely a shell of his former self in the last fight though, no arguments here.

Strip club to give Mayweather-Pacquiao winner couch dances for life

Where are the world's great marketing minds being molded?

Why it's Las Vegas strip clubs, of course.

Deja Vu Showgirls marketing director Megan Swartz is going the extra mile to entice the winner of the May 2 match between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao at the MGM Grand. In a note directed to "Mr. Mayweather & Mr. Pacquiao" on the club website, she's offering the winner couch dances for life, in addition to a $500,000 bottle of Dom Perignon.

But that's not all.

Swartz is also ponying up four strippers who've offered to tattoo the winner's name on their bodies, a specialty drink creation to be christened either "Mayweather Mayhem" or "Pacquiao Punch-Out," a topless boxing match at the club in he winner's honor and a life-sized portrait of the winner and assembled strippers that'll be displayed in the club lobby for posterity.

"Good luck gentlemen," Swartz said in closing. "See you after the fight at the Vu."

Only in Vegas.

Sounds like it's going.

Didn't buy it but it's all over Twitter

Head says mayweather- his usual punch and dance routine
Heart says pacman - because Floyd is a giant douchecanoe who likes to beat on woman

Mayweather got The Burger King in his corner.

Disappointed Pac didn't get Mayor McCheese.
