Boxing fans: Mayweather vs. Pacquiao fight in 2015?

bonhommearmonica,


FM has a perfect record, but many have said his last fights over the past 2 years or so have not been much of a competition for him...almost implying that he won't take on top fighters

He is currently undefeated as a professional and is a five-division world champion, having won ten world titles and the lineal championship in four different weight classes
 
Mayweather is the WBC, WBA and Ring welterweight champion, and the WBC Super, WBA, and Ring junior middle weight champion. He is also rated as the best pound-for-pound boxer in the world by many sporting news and boxing website



A couple of the fights the decisions were very controversial
(the Boxing world is corrupt, like many other areas in sports)

 
FM will go down as one of the best boxers ever
He just does not have the heart of many boxing fans like Manny Pacquiao does and it bothers him
FM is all about the money & does not hesitate to flaunt it
His ego, attitude & arrogance taints his image IMO

He is fast with both hands and can take a punch, I'll give him that......he is good

MP is the first and only eight-division world champion, in which he has won ten world titles, as well as the first to win the lineal championship in four different weight classes.

He is the current WBO welterweight champion and is currently ranked number three on The Ring pound-for-pound list

He was long rated as the best pound-for-pound boxer in the world by some sporting news and boxing websites, including ESPN, Sports Illustrated, Sporting Life, Yahoo! Sports, About.com, BoxRec and The Ring from his climb to Lightweight until his losses in 2012



 MP is also a very humble person in the ring as well as out of the ring

His fights far out number FM

So if one were to tally the numbers up, MP record is far more outstanding IMO, even with the 5 losses
(that may have been the time where he was running for Congressman in the Philippines, which he won)

They are both extremely great fighters

MP and his trainer have called out to FM for this fight to take place
Even willing to give FM top billing and maybe the bigger purse %
(which FM seems adamant about)

If this match were to ever take place, the revenue it will bring in will beat all records
Probably will take place in Vegas and also Pay-Per-View

Okay, this just in....
And let's see if FM comes up with some BS excuse to back out at the last minute



And this from FM social site
Of course, a few weeks ago he tweeted there was no fight lined up
He's one flaky fickle dude

"What the world has been waiting for has arrived. Mayweather vs. Pacquiao on May 2, 2015, is a done deal. I promised the fans we would get this done, and we did. We will make history on May 2nd. Don't miss it! This is the signed contract from both fighters"


The purse will be split 60-40, with FM getting the 60
