Who's staying up and tuning in then and who do you fancy to come out on top?

Unusually Sky have decided not to charge 15 quid and have put it live on SS1. :clap2:

Mayweather Jnr is one of the best ever, plain and simple, he may not have the big knockout power but the way he constantly dismantles his opponents in the ring time after time is just something else, a real class act.

:angry: I Sky+ it but must have been running late as it only recorded up to the end of 4th round. But from what I saw Mayweather was always going to be the winner.
There's a rerun now on SS1 so I may catch the end this time

It finished about two minutes before your post, they are showing some other fight now but I dare say it'll be on again during the day...

It was comical at the end to see a three way fight between Mayweather, Shane Mosley and the interviewer nearly kick off :lolol:

Boxing is in desperate need of 3 top heavyweights to maintain interest. If a Cruiserweight (David Haye) goes on to become world champion that will summarise the generally weak nature of the division.

Mayweather outclassed him last night. Looking forward seeing him fight manny.....

Shame he won't fight someone who actually has a chance of winning. He'll destroy Pacquiao but won't fight Williams or Moseley.

I disagree.


I think Mayweather has a decent chance of beating Pacquiao. He will fight the right fight and use his undoubted boxing skills which is best way to fight Pacquiao.
Pacquiao will do a Hatton to Cotto as for all Cotto's heart he aint in the same league

I'm certainly not saying that there's no way that PBF could beat Manny, because clearly that's possible with all the talent that Floyd has (even though I dislike him, his talent is undeniable), but there is NO WAY that Mayweather will 'destroy' Pacquiao as One True BHA asserted, Manny is too good to be destroyed by anyone.

It'd be a good fight, but I'd give the advantage to Manny because he can match Floyd for speed (which very few can) and without doubt has the power to hurt him while being tough enough to withstand what Floyd could do.

I disagree.

Pacquiao will look the same as Marquez did last night, small slow and weak. It's a mismatch that Mayweather will comfortably win I think.

Having said that, I think Cotto might knock Pacquiao out so the fight could never happen.

Ah well...its all about opinions, i think Manny will beat Cotto and if he does ever fight Mayweather there is no way it will be a mismatch on either side. Manny has the punch power and the speed to hurt Mayweather.....thats if he can get near him.......dunno how u could call it a mismatch against Manny....have u ever seen him fight?? Would love to see this fight happen. Like him or hate him though you have to be impressed by the class of Mayweather.

Other than Floyd, I would LOVE to see Pacquiao fight Edwin Valero.

That's a fight that would surely rival Hagler/Hearns in terms of being short and bloody brutal. I'd not expect it to go beyond 4 rounds, but you'd get your money's worth from every second.
