Pacquiao vs Mayweather Official Thread...May 2nd!!!

[Skip b]

Manny put the beats on the Russian Rocky, dropped The Ohio Powerhouse (who's much larger than Pacquiao) twice.....but yet we're supposed to believe that the same Prime & Peak version of Pacquiao couldnt hurt the china chin Khan in sparring

Roach word>Yours

 

[The Fukin Prophecy]

Floyd at -210...

Need that to drop a little lower to make that bet...

Come on pactards... Floyd's scared ! Manny got speed and power! Easy money!

Roach said on many occasions Khan dropped and stopped Manny the reason he was barred from sparring ..

Link?

SOME DUDE AT WORK WAS LIKE "FLOYD IS THE UNDERDOG. Vegas had him s the underdog". So I told him let's bet and then he went like "naaaah"

 

[patscorpio]

think about it.. If you have good sparring partners like Khan, Ghost, and Porter, are you trying to take them out..hurt them in sparring?? Or are you trying to keep them around for hundreds of rounds??

this..although there are some fighters that violate during sparring..try to turn them into actual fights instead of using to try out new moves or get some work in..and then the fukkery starts

You cant find a link cause it dont exist

this..although there are some fighters that violate during sparring..try to turn them into actual fights instead of using to try out new moves or get some work in..and then the fukkery starts

Yea and thats why nikkas like Tyson peaked so early going so hard treating a sparring session like a real fight

The only reason I prefer all access to 24/7

 

[patscorpio]

The only reason I prefer all access to 24/7

there's going to be some pure fukkery in that final episode for sure

 

[GzUp]

The only reason I prefer all access to 24/7

im guessing hbo will have there version for manny.. but i wonder the times and dates.

 

[JDee323]

I remember easing that manny doesn't go hard on his sparring partners, but I find that hard to believe... Shouldn't u be going hard in sparring?

An old trainer once told me that this is where a lot of fighters fukk up treating it almost like a real fight. Sparring is basically for learning/sharpening up. Going hard in sparring will take something out of you in the long run.

Dan Rafael chat wrap 3/27:

Mayweather-Pacquiao:

- He puts very, very little stock in Freddie Roach saying that one of his friends has a fighter from Mexico in Mayweather's sparring camp that has given Floyd that work for 2 straight days. He also does not know if Floyd makes his sparring partners sign gag orders from speaking out on what happens in Floyd's camps.

- The MGM will have hotel rooms set aside only for Media on May 2nd

- Showtime just announced a four-part series called "Inside Mayweather vs. Pacquiao." A docu-style series like 24/7 or All Access. Debuts April 18 after the Chavez-Fonfara fight. Final episode will be an epilogue and cover the fight and the aftermath.

- Says HBO has stuff planned. It won't be 24/7 and probably not even a series but at least 2 specials.

- Says "Mayweather-Pacquiao" is without question the richest fight in history in terms of economics. It is also by far the biggest fight of the generation and one of the top fights in entire history of boxing. That said, he believes that it is not the biggest fight ever in terms of significance or importance. Says a fight like Louis-Schmeling had huge politcal and cultural significance. Ali-Fraizer 1 same thing. Plenty of other fights same thing. Mayweather-Pacquiao is a massive, massive fight but it lacks the social and political element. It's really about the fight and the matchup and that's it. And it will generate sick money.

- Says tickets for closed circuit viewing shoulda been announced already. He would guess next week. CC tix were $50 when he first started on the beat and then some fights went up to $100. He thinks this one might be as much as $150 or $200.

- He's told by Tecate that will have some kind of rebate situation for the fight.

- Says who knows what will happen after May 2. He thinks there could be a rematch or both could retire. He does not think either will fight again in 2015.

- Says Mayweather has touched on it what he plans to do when he retires at times. He has spoken about remaining involved in boxing with Mayweather Promotions.

- Says hasnt gotten the impression that Floyd will be fighting with more strength and power. Says Floyd is who he is. He's not going to change much for this fight other than perhaps more focus and intensity.

- He's surprised that many of the details of the Mayweather-Pacquiao fight have still yet to be announced (tickets, ppv cost, closed circuit tickets, etc).

- Thought the fight poster was decent. A little disappointing for a fight of this magnitude.

- Says as far as weigh-in's go, his understanding is that HBO and Showtime will both put on the same weigh-in telecast together but that ESPN will also do its own 30-minute live weigh-in broadcast from 5:30 pm ET to 6 pm ET, leading into SportsCenter. This is not official, just what he has been told the plan is.

- The PPV will begin at 9 pm ET.

- Says unlikely Mayweather vs Pacquiao is shown in theaters.

- Says it is not unfair at all that MGM is hogging all the closed circuit viewing. MGM is the exclusive outlet for the fight and has every right to make it available via closed circuit in Vegas exclusively at its properties.
