MANNY PACQUAIO v FLOYD MAYWEATHER

Will it still happen?

We don't know. Manny Pacquaio is always ready to fight him unlike Floyd Mayweather who always reasons out for the fight not to happen.

Despite having 5 defeats, Manny Pacquaio is having a fantastic career because he is able to fight the worlds best of the best fighters and had knocked out most of them. Although he experienced being knocked out, at least Pacquaio showed the world that he is never afraid of any opponent.

But Floyd Mayweather? He is just doing a running game. He lands jabs then runs as if afraid to get hurt and take risks. Yes his knockout percentage his higher than 50% and he is undefeated, but is he still in a high level right now? He can only prove that he is the best if he fights Pacquaio and beats him.

But I doubt, Mayweather had never faced someone like Manny.

Statistically Mayweather fought some opponents that Manny Pacquaio also fought. He is able to beat De La Hoya by decision, knockout Hatton in 10 rounds, knockout Victor Ortiz in 4 rounds controversionally, defeating Marcus Maidana twice by decision, defeating Saul Alvarez by majority decision and defeating Marquez by decision.

On the other hand Pacquaio knocked out Dela Hoya in 9 rounds, Hatton in 2 rounds, Cotto in 12 rounds, beated Margarito by decision as well as Rios, Bradley, Mosley and Marquez although losing twice in a row.

For me Pacquaio is the braver fighter than Mayweather.

So lastly, will the fight ever happen? Hopefully.
