Floyd Mayweather vs Manny Pacquiao May 2 MGM Grand Las Vegas

Is there anywhere taking bets on the amount of moaning fans after this fails to live up to expectations? That's about the only element of this fight I think is nailed on :p
 
Impossible this fight will be a major letdown, pac doesn't do boring fights and mayweather was struggling with a plodder like madaina. This will be epic

The realisation it's happening sunk in at weigh in, hype!!!
 
I'm not a boxing fan but I won't miss this fight. There hasn't been anything like this since Klitchko vs Lewis, I can't wait to see it. :D
 
I'm not getting excited just yet, the fight is too far off. Come 3am though, i'll be break dancing.

This is the biggest fight of probably my life time, no way am I missing it.

Unbelievable amounts of money for a fight so few people will be watching. If nothing else a great job has been done by the money men to get so much for a fight only 3-4 million americans will watch. Especially when you consider...

From the bbc article

It all seems a far cry from 1995 when 28 million Americans tuned in to see Mike Tyson beat Buster Mathis on Fox. Or 1985 when 19 million TV viewers across Britain watched Barry McGuigan become world champion.

I decided I'd never pay for boxing again after Nigel Benn gave himself a payday and quit on his stool.
 
What a muppet, been avoiding all internet/facebook/news all day so I could acquire the fight and watch it later............just realised.....:p

You'll only hear him for half the announcing as well as I think him and Jimmy Lennon Jr are sharing the announce duties (due to this being a Showtime/HBO duel presentation). If it's like the weigh in Buffer will announce Pacquiao and Lennon Jr will announce Mayweather.

He'll do the 'lets get ready' bit for sure though which is the main thing :p
 
I would love to see Mayweather dropped on his arse, but he's too good. Shane Mosley proved Mayweather can be hit, but his resiliance is incredible. Pac has some power so who knows?

Yea mayweather answered a lot of questions in that fight, Mosley hit him with 2 bombs that would have probably flattened most other fighters. Solid chin and great recovery.

But the interesting thing is mayweather didn't normally get tagged like that, madaina wobbled him too so he is there to be hit, well more than he used too anyway.

I don't think pacs power is on the same level as Mosley, who is big guy and a big puncher, but pacs power comes as a suprise given how fast he is and his punches appear from no where.
 
4am is ring walk time, subject to the undercard fights etc.

I suspect it's more like 4.30 or so as almost certainly Mayweather will leave Pacman in the ring for 20 mins or so before he comes out.
 
If Bieber and Lil' Wayne are coming out with Mayweather again it'll take a good 30 mins for him to get to the ring. *****.

Will have to 'download' this in the morning as I don't know of a legit way to watch it online. Hope it's already up in HD at 8ish.
