Let's do it!!!!

Love my man Manny!!! Filipino power!!! lol...

Would be a great fight I think... too bad it couldn't have come off a few years ago when they were both younger.

I suspect Mayweather would spend the entire fight running - just like he's done in avoiding a matchup to begin with.

Way to late in their careers sadly...Mayweather is a punk ass bitch and ran from Manny in his prime. Because of that he will never rank with the likes of Hagler, Leonard and Duran. NEVER.

Manny is still the best pound for pound fighter IMO - granted I'm biased though.

He walked into that fluke punch by Marquez which was unfortunate, he was winning that fight and would have won; and most everyone thought he won the 1st Bradley fight - he took care of business in Bradley II, so other than that, he's been Manny right along.

At least he takes all of the toughest challengers he can, and has gone well above his comfortable weight. Mararito was 17 lbs heavier when they fought, and Manny simply destroyed the guy.

I like this Showtime 360 after the Mosley fight... LL Cool J and Jamie Foxx outside the dressing room pumping Mosley up, lol... Mosley wanted to quit after the 10th round, but his manager wouldn't let him.

This match up is past it's time.

That's another sad tale of the fight game.

Looks like this one might be on for May 2nd!!!

All it needs for Mayweather to sign - Manny has agreed to Mayweather's demands, 60/40 split for Mayweather... what a punk, lol...

But Manny wants the fight, and Bob Arum thinks it will get done this time.

Lot of trash talking going on...

Pacquiao having some probs with leg cramps during training... hope that passes quickly. Still a little over 5 weeks to go...

Perfect fight?? Manny by TKO in 10th round :)

T minus 3 days...

Wife and I were planning on watching the fight at a filipino friends house, but we've since decided that it will be far too crowded... so we're going to watch it at a local casino with some other friends.

We could just as well buy it, but we want to get away from the kids, lol...

Should be a great fight... hoping Mayweather will fight instead of just backing up and trying to steal rounds. Manny is Manny... he'll be coming forward and applying pressure. Styles make fights, so let's hope this is a good fight!!!

Go Manny!!!

This would be the match of the century in 2007. I don't have a dog in the fight but my guess is Floyd manages to pull it off somehow.

No surprises there. Floyd did what he has always done....stick, move and avoid heavy confrontation.

floyd fought for 1 or 2 rounds, ran for the other 10 and won on points

manny was the aggressor all night, but couldn't land the punches to "outpoint" jr

i remembered why i lost all interest in boxing about 15 years ago

Manny was not aggressive at all in my opinion... Certainly more than Mayweather but he doesn't look anything like his old self. Manny looks much older than Mayweather, which is weird.

My guess is they fight two more times. The shoulder injury had to be known for awhile and they went ahead and did it anyway.

My guess... Pacquaio wins the next one 18 months from now, after Money May goes 50-0.

Then they do a third where Mayweather wins.

There is too much potential money on the line, especially after the shoulder injury. Imagine the 3rd PPV if Manny won the next fight. It'd shatter all the records.

Boxing is like the wrastlin' without the entertainment of not knowing who'll win a match. Has been for the better part of 20 years now.

The last boxer I pulled for was David Tua.
