    And I'm still not convinced that's impossible!

    That's really the big question, in my eyes. Does Floyd still have the legs to keep it in the middle of the ring for 12 rounds?

    Agreed, if I thought it was, I wouldn't even bother watching ;)

    I'm hoping Pacquiao is fighting for his legacy more than the money etc, is more motivated than ever, and can pull out a vintage Pacquiao, high energy performance.

    Both men are highly motivated for this fight. Each will do whatever ittakes to win. That's why it's all but guaranteed to be a classic. Pacquiao will not let Floyd win a boring fight in this one.

    Like some guys are knockout proof, I think Pacquiao is beat easily proof. He'll win some rounds.

    Win or lose, I have a feeling this is the beginning of the end for Mayweather.

    The guy is a 38 year old former super featherweight champ currently shuttling between welter & junior middle.

    Don't go out on a limb or anything.

    Shit, who's swami? I'm nervous now too and I don't even now who swami is! lol

    Truthfully, I' a little nervous about my pick now too after rewatching the second maidana fight. Floyd looked shaky in that one. Not the Floyd of old (young) by any stretch. Still, I have to pick mayweather..he's better than Pacquiao and both are getting old so the age factor should even out.

    I'm telling you guys.. This dude picked fights where he would pick the underdog and we would all laugh,,


    He is up to like 65 fights picked correctly.
    Funny I heard the reasoning was not a boxing point, he said "nothing in boxing science etc. but shitting on Ali...he crossed the line. " LOL

    Spence is a welter. Mayweather has to have moved up to at least super middle by then if he cares about his legacy

    "To truly appreciate were we are, let's start from the very beginning. On an island on the other side of the world. On streets were a boy sat everyday for hours, peddling whatever he could find for spare change, desperate to find a way out. And then he discovered a better way. It nevertheless defies belief, that from that boy's forgotten corner of the map, he could reach the very top of the world, that boxing could turn a man into a miracle."
    Ladies and gentlemen, regardless of the outcome of this week's fight, Pacquiao already won. More confident in my pick. The miracle by decision.

    Have you sold your CC seats or are you using them. Curious as to how much of a mark up there is on them.

    We have a choice on what to believe. The other guy is telling you he is TBE, the other is telling us his life story, where it all began. One will fight anybody and everybody, ducks no one, the other carefully picks and chooses his opponents. One is beloved, the other is difficult inside and outside the ring.

    I thought the infomercial was well written and even for both sides, Showtime on the other hand...

    $500 for fight tickets or CC tickets? Where are you staying? Hotel prices are sky high too.
