Breaking news on son Floyd v PAC man may 2nd...

Just seen this, it's about time as well! Won't be as great a spectacle as it could have been 5 or so years ago, but should be a great fight nontheless. Really wanting Pacman to end Mayweather's perfect record, but not too sure it will happen tbh

Bit gutted about this tbh, as I cannot see how Pacquiao can really compete with Mayweather anymore. If this fight had happened when it should, have it would have been a belter, but Pacman has been in so many proper fights that he has just been worn down in a way that Mayweather hasn't. I'd love him to win, but I don't think he's anywhere near the level he was at when he could have genuinely stood a chance. Mayweather seems to have ducked him untill he was confident that he'd easily win, now Pacman is worn down he wants the fight so he can claim he was better all along.

Bittersweet really. Only one winner in this fight now, pity it wasn't 5/6 years ago.

 

[conormcfc]

About 6 years too late!

Having said that, still the defining fight of our generation.. and everyone will still watch.

If this was a football match it would be a bore 0-0 with Floyd parking the bus and winning on a penalty shootout.

Dont really follow boxing but saw a title fights about to start on sky news so switched over to see it but think i have the x factor on instead. About 20 minutes in so far and nothing but music and overly long ring entrances then national anthems. Bored now do switched over lol.

Murray's got so much bottle. Brave performance.

 

[JoeMercer'sWay]

After some of the farcical fights in 2014, this is a really positive fight for boxing, Murray is brave as hell.

 

[city saint]

brave defeat

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

Respect to martin murray, brave performance.

Impressive by murray, gallant performance in a fight I predicted would be over well before now. Golovkin is a machine

 

[without a dream]

Be interesting if Golovkin could drop down whether Mayweather would take a fight. I reckon he wouldn't...

 

[oldius]

Golovkin was relentless. A very interesting boxer to watch; he's solid in all areas, very aggressive and very powerful.

Think he's more likely to step up a weight. And there's no way mayweather would fight him if he went down.
The avoidance of opponents in boxing is so frustrating.
