Since you insist:shaq:

On some real shyt In my life i had the ability to dream dreams, expect for my personal life where emotions effect perception, it scares me at times, because at times i see things about people i care about i dont want to,..Since this fight has been on my mind for years, i dreamt it

I forsee Manny getting tko´ed around round 8, he will get picked apart so bad before the tko, people will wonder if he laid down or if he took the fight seriously at all, around round 8 he lunges in being desperate and eat a fierce left hook which wobbles him, floyd side steps shift and lands a right body uppercut which drops him, he wont recove he gets up but Freddie stops it after a barrage....

Floyd will beat his nemesis, but get little praise for how he destroys manny, this will be a man handling, like a man beating a boy even him himself will feel sorry for the whooping he puts on Manny, so he gets no glory from the win...Manny after crying like a baby post fight in the ring tailspin is quick and drastic, roach will turn on him and imply hes washed up and needs to retire, Manny fans and Arum will question roach decision on stopping it....All in all there will be no winners, not the fighters or fans, both will contemplate retirement post match...:demonic:

This is why I wish this fight was 49th or 50th instead of 48th.

I see Floyd sitting back waiting for manny to step in/ludge and time him... Through the whole fight just do that and be cautious.

Manny doesn't fight inside though.

but he has quick feet to land his punches if he was inside, as in take a quick step out or to the side or whatever his range is.

if hes completey outside not in range of landing on floyd he has a slim chance of landing anything... thats where floyd will keep him tbh.

be like this.

Master boxer Chris Algieri: Mayweather's Counters Will Be Key To Victory

Former WBO junior welterweight champion Chris Algieri disagrees with the experts who believe that Floyd Mayweather's defense will be the difference against Manny Pacquiao on May 2nd at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

Algieri fought Pacquiao last November in Macau, China. He went down six times and lost a twelve round decision to the Filipino superstar.

Mayweather is known as a defensive wizard who rarely takes any punishment during his fights. He often dominates the competition with a combination of speed, defense and counter-punching.

Defense aside, Algieri expects Mayweather to use his physical advantages to box from outside and counter Pacquiao all fight long. Over the years, Pacquiao struggled in four closely contested fights with Mexican counter-puncher Juan Manuel Marquez, who lacks the speed and defense of Mayweather.

"I don't think Floyd defense is what's going to present all of the problems, I think it's going to be his counter-punching. If Floyd stands in front of him and tries that shoulder-roll defense, he is going to get hit. Pacquiao's punches come from very strange angles It's not so much that you don't see them, it's that you don't expect them to come from those angles and still generate power," Algieri explained to Grantland Sports.

"Sometimes you stay in a position where you know if you get hit with that hand it won't be a danger. Pacquiao is not that guy. If Floyd stands there and tries to picks shots off, Manny's speed and punching variations will present him with a lot of problems. But I don't think its going to get to that. I think Floyd's ability to counter-punch from the outside will be the difference."

Heading into this past weekend, if you asked anyone to post a pic or show you proof of having a ticket to the Mayweather-Pacquiao fight they couldn’t do it. Because the bottom line is nobody actually has them. Literally, nobody.

The fighters, the hotel, the promoters, the networks.

Also, tickets – all dozens of them which should be available to the public – still aren’t on sale yet.

Last I checked, the fight is less than a month away (now, the pay-per-view price was reported to be $89.95 – plus 10 more dollars for the HD version – but has it been decided how much the promoters are going to gouge the cable and satellite operators for their share of the pay-per-view cut?).

I’m hearing that a lot of loose ends are still yet to be tied up in regarding this promotion. There was such an emphasis on having this fight take place on Cinco de Mayo weekend that this was inevitable. It’s the classic case of putting the cart before the horse.

But I’m just wondering: Would this fight have suffered in any way if it were scheduled for mid-June?
