chai, weldone

you for repackage am and create a new thread. Nice one. Its still early and trending, try it!

Money plus TV ratings won the match hands down and Mayweather was just the best assistant to those two.

I also wish Amir Khan got this slot.

I think with good training and preparation, he can pull a win against Mayweather.

Khan is very fast and good with his punches (when he's focused).

I never knew Khan avoided fights against Mayweather. I thought it was the other way round.

@post

It's tricky. Pac might win this but my money is on mayweather.

luckily you kept your dough where it should be

Amir is up next!

Floyd says last match should be september-is Khan the opponent?

Floyd is wiser than tyson in terms of saving for age 58! Assets everywhere. But seriously the hype is killing boxing. Seems its slowly tilting towards bad times.

If Khan is the one, i want him to KO floyd, but mock Floyd with the same tactics of running round

SO ACCORDING TO U ALL WOMEN DONT ENJOY SPORTS
U BETTER COMOT FOR MY SIGHT WITH UR MYOPIC REASONING.AM NOT IN A GOOD MOOD THIS MORNING

so isn't it true....majority of our guys are far more intelligent than our girls.....so the youngman is correct to conclude.....weda u d good mood or not e no change Nada...so go find ur mood and come back and be reasonable

At last! The matter of who is the greater boxer has been finally settled! Well done Mayweather!

So it looks like I'm going to laugh at that guy at work. I told him that Mayweather would win - as much as I dislike the man outside the ring, you've to admit he is a great defensive boxer, he always picks fights that he knows he will win. Plus, this match was years late.

But u knw khan aint as tough as manny
Manny has the speed but may is very calculative
This wasn't may's best cos manny is equally a king in the ring
May will murder khan I can bet my life's earnings on it

JoeCutie:
My brother, that's the kind of life I'm striving to build for myself. Not a reckless or a wayward life, but a life where I'd spend money without having to think my brains out, simply knowing that more money is on the way. That's the real deal. Not a life where you'll have to check your account (airtime) balance, contemplate and pray over it before you make a minute phone call. Isn't that frustrating?

If you're in "MTN Zone", you'll have to wait all your life, or more to that, trek oooooo...until you get to an area where the call rate is relatively low. I know a guy who does this. Chai! That one na life?!

Imagine... Mayweather, in one of his interviews, said he buys houses and cars for fun. That they are like toys to him. What impudence! Money! Owo!! Ego!!!

One of the loveliest things I admire about you is how simple you make things look, with your great sense of humor. You always pass a serious, insightful, sensible message across in a very funny way, and trust me, it's absolutely spot on. Always.

Whenever I come online, I always know where to catch fun and learn lessons too. I just need to go through your comments, laugh, learn and go. You always make my day. You're good.

More thoughts to your unique head.

SirShymexx:
You can't stop him.

All you have to do is keep hating and paying money to watch him.

And he'll keep beating everyone you put infront of him.

Glad I saw the best of this legend - the ring genius with supreme intelligence and greatest defensive fighter ever!!!

Salute to the King, man!!

Why is Mayweather proclaimed the best Pound for Pound in the world? I didn't see any evidence of that in him jumping around,holding down the other guy and always on the defense. I wont pay a dime to see the re-match if there will be any. The only thing I got from that fight is that Mayweather is an entertainer in Boxing while Pacquiao is a genuine fighter. Anyway the fighter was not as great as it was billed most partly down to tactics of Mayweather.

If I may add, that match was like Chelsea(Mayweather) and Barcelona(Pacquiao) and I'm a Chelsea fan. Mayweather is NOT a great boxer,only a good one at finding ways to win no matter how it makes the sport of boxing look bad. No wonder interest in boxing had dwindle since Tyson,Holyfield and Lennox Lewis era. I wont bother watching another boxing match again - Kolawole Ali

Rashdimuh:
Mayweather offered manny 40m dolls in 2012 to fight but manny refused. May has neva lost a fight in his career even at amateur level but i dnt knw why he is not loved by his people. May is winning by decision.

Point of correction bro...May lost to Serafim Todorov of Bulgaria @ the 1996 Atlanta Olympics,in a semi-final bout.

Nihilist:


I got knocked out during an amateur fight.

3 rounds, only 150 pounds for the winner.

Woke up concussed and realised that I was risking my life for nothing.

About the fight, Manny is old and a politician and a basketballer.

Floyd can smell victory cos like like Anthony Joshua, he picks fights he can never lose.

Pac lost to Marquez and then got beat by Tim Bradley. Granted Pac came back strong in the rubber, but it already obvious that we're looking at a great in decline

Plus Kennny Bayless is the ref...That's like having two floyds in the ring.

This your tactical analysis just came to pass...Good one bro!

It's BOXING not BRAWLING - the sweet science.

Respect the ring scientist and stop hating!!

Hi hater!!

as in......after watching Cinderella Man, I realised boxing isn't about being aggressive, but patient and calculating.....

A lot of people mistake boxing for a street fight or even MMA. That's why they're not the judges

I agree bro! I will put my money on Khan over Manny

Nobody knows yet who his next opponent will be but Khan wants to fight him real bad and it's been wanting that for over a year now.

Khan can deliver fast punches. Very fast! For that reason, a KO with a bloodied nose for Floyd is very possible although Khan would need to work on his defences.

I think the hype is great for boxing. That's the only thing that is keeping the sport alive.

British boxing needs some "legal high" which is why a fight as big as one with mayweather will do it some major good.

I want to ask you something, Joe: Why are you so f*cking funny?

Thanks for making me laugh jawe. My weekend has been poor. Very annoying and heartbreaking.

I wish you are/were here...at least I'll laugh. I'm very sure of that.

LWKMD!!!

Many people may not be bothered about this but can the mods kindly correct the wording of this thread's title? It should read Mayweather DEFEATS Manny Pacquiao... not WINS. Manny Pacquiao is not the prize here he is the opponent. You do not win your opponent, you win a prize, the opponent is defeated.

Cheers

In moments like this, I find myself speechless. I just don't know what to say other than... Wow!

Thanks, dear. I'm honoured, humbled and happy.
In fact, I was waiting for 'Sunday rice' to get done so I could eat, but hey! I'm not going to eat again. I don't need extra food; this is enough.

Thanks again, and happy Sunday.

Well I guess you should direct that question to the supreme creator. "No one takes this upon himself", you remember...

Awww! I'm happy I could make you happy and laugh from a distance. Don't worry, God will send an angel-like Bovi down your way, to keep you going.

What happened? Hope he didn't break up with you?

Smile!

Mrval20:
For everyone saying Floyd was dancing, running etc, etc.... CRY ME A RIVER!!

No matter how boring those tactics might be, we all know it's Mayweather's way of fighting; Pac's team inclusive.
Now, I have a question for Pacman and his trainer- "whatever happened to common sense?!!"
As super naive as I am in boxing, I always knew that dancing to the tunes of Mayweather would be disastrous for Pacman; just can't understand why his team could not foresee something this simple.

Pac fans, accept defeat in good faith and stop being some bunch of sore losers.
Pacman should've won that fight only if he applied a little wisdom!
Stay put and wait for Mayweather to come out from the ropes and fight you right at the centre. If he tarries, rest assured the crowd would boo him out of the ropes(I mean you got majority of the spectators on your side!)
Lesson for Pacman:
Brawl - Brain=FAILURE!

This is also applicable in real life situations:
Hardwork - Smartwork= FAILURE!

ALL HAIL THE SMART WORKER.... THE MONEY MAN!

#tmt

...... Don't mind the bunch of Pathetic sad ol' loosers. They can't stomach the fact their man got taught a boxing lesson

yeah thats true

british boxing- when last did they have a powerhouse? Only that floyd seems to know the angles of the ring better than Khan. I hope to see something.

Besides the promoters just reignited boxing with this duel.

SirShymexx:

JoeCutie:
Who knows... He might be into investment too. I think he is. Something like Estate business or so. I think I've read it in one of his interviews.

Hahaha investments? Oga abeg make I no laugh

daveP:

No matter how much khan prepares floyd will KO him in d 2nd round (na kingtom talk am oo)

If the tables turn na cave sure pass ooo

For those beefing Floyd for no just cause, here are some photos from the arena.

For those also comparing him with the Chelsea team, I'd rather you compare him with Jose Mourinho. Floyd studied his opponent. He planned. He prepared. And then he adjusted. PacMan was fast, Floyd decided to dance to contain the speed. That to me is preparedness. Winning can never always be attractive.


Notice where Floyd's few punches landed all through?

Fans of PacMan should share photos of his direct hits, if any.

It was Mayweather's day all along.
