Lol that'd be good too. I think the commentators are more entertaining than the wrestlers.

 

Not these days. Commentary sucks the life out of almost everything thats good now.

 

Like Max Landis said, when wrestling's bad, it is TERRIBLE, but when wrestling's good, IT IS *EXPLETIVE* GREAT(ex, Seth Rollins cashing in MITB to win the WWE World Heavyweight Championship from Brock Lesnar in his match against Roman Reigns at the main event of Wrestlemania 31 not long ago, watch reactions to that on Youtube, its beautiful).

 

I think the storytelling and drama behind wrestling(on top of the fact its more than just punches) drew me in to it as compared to boxing.

 

Pac and Mayweather are some boring *expletive*s compared to some wrestlers.

 

And years ago a friend of mine(a rather attractive lady) was modeling for Pac's cologne or something like that(it was new). She had to stand next to him. She said he smelled terrible.

 

I bet The Rock never smelled terrible. /African baby oil made from pure African babies

The Rock smells like coffee beans and pine trees.

From experience I can tell you that fighters like Mayweather are just the f*cking worst to deal with unless you have Tyson-like levels of skill, stamina and head work.

 

As I mentioned before, I usually don't follow boxing all that much so I just know a little bit about each fighter, but I know more about Mayweather than Pac-man.

 

I think Pac-man is best keeping his distance just enough so that mayweather can't score too much and that he can throw some in. Trying to get inside whilst Mayweather is fresh off the first round is dangerous.

 

However you could also tire him out.

 

It's a contest of stanima as well as power.

 

Experience? Are/were you a boxer? I'd like to hear more about that if you're willing.

 

Anyway, I'm almost certain Pac-Man will attempt to punch a hole through Mayweather's face in the early rounds, but especially in the first. The only thing a fighter can't fight is his nature, and Pac is naturally aggressive. He's become a more patient boxer in recent years, but he's still incredibly aggressive when he's on the attack. As I said, I think Pacquiao will make Mayweather fight in his traditional "feel out" rounds and I believe he'll have enough stamina to go 6-8 more rounds if the initial onslaught doesn't put Mayweather down. I'm not so sure Manny should worry about getting inside on Mayweather, either. I don't think Mayweather has the punching power to make Pacquiao pay for it with a KO, but if Mayweather manages to evade Manny and hit him with those one-twos like he has done to so many before, you'll probably end up being right. I still think Pac needs to attack Mayweather, for better or worse.

 

This is a fascinating, multilayered fight you could debate until May 2nd finally arrives. Both of these guys are training like it will be their last, so I hope it's a classic fight. The sport needs it, because this might be the last true "mega-fight". There certainly aren't any stars on the horizon in any weight class, much less two that can fight in the same weight class. Adrian Broner thinks he's a star, but that's about it with him.

He'd beat both of them(in storyline, :P) if he could put their spine on the pine. Goddamn the old days were fun.

He had that tendency.

All I know about Mayweather and Pac is that the first is a douche nozzle and the other smells bad.

And beer. Though looking back as many cans as he went through in a night I wonder how much of it ever actually made into his mouth. I mean he sloshed half the can just trying to open the damn thing lol.

Punches bore me. More interested in kicks, holds, submissions, grapples, other strikes(knee, elbow), such and such.

 

Wrasslin' does it.

 

Matter of fact, lets get Mayweather at Wrestlemania again, Pac for the first time, and they can have a match. Loser of the boxing match gets their revenge in a wrestling match, then the rubber match is in the octagon.

 

Then thats a draw so they finish it in a game of musical chairs.

That means something totally different where I come from. 

 

But I approve regardless.

Only 2 pages on the biggest fight ever?

*shudders*

I'm totally going to watch it, even though I rarely watch boxing. That is, unless they let me pay the same ridiculous price they have to pay in the USA ($100). I'm not gonna pay a $100 to watch 2 dudes punch each other at 4 or 5 am. But if it's more reasonable like the UK prices (20 pounds I think), I totally will.

Well Sim apparently regretted making this thread and as such deleted his account.

 

I'm placing a bet that one of them will end up with early onset Alzheimer's!

Who cares?

Humans aren't built to last past age 40. Every year after is a bonus given by medicine and other modern influences.

There's several genetic diseases that do absolutely nothing detrimental to us at all, and quite possibly even give us benefits... until we are around our 40th year of age. Huntington's disease being a good example of this.

Hell, every disease associated with old age is a good example of this.

Honestly, 20 bucks is too much for a Mayweather fight especially one that came 5 years too late.
I'm expecting him to hug, potshot and elbow his way to a comfortable decision.
