Mayweather-Pacquiao Fight Still Wanted

As much as I have given up on a Pacquiao-Mayweather fight, there are still people who wish to see that fight happen.

If you take ESPN's sportsnation survey as to who should Mayweather face in his next fight, it is clear that a lot of people want Pacman to challenge Money.

Obviously, Mayweather camp would pick the one who could help them make more money and can be expected to favoring a Mayweather-Canelo fight.

I hope that Pacquiao too have seen and understood that many people still like to see him and mayweather fight. I hope that would mean more motivation for him to come out spectacularly on top of the coming Pacquiao - Rios bout.

Pacquiao - Mayweather Mega Fight on November 13, 2010?

Pacquiao - Mayweather, the megafight every boxing fan is drooling to witness, may finally push through on November 13, 2010.


Bob Arum said that Manny Pacquiao will certainly fight in November and promised that he will do his best so that Pacquiao's opponent on the other corner will be Floyd Mayweather Jr.

The Pacquiao - Mayweather is touted to become the biggest fight in boxing and will also put to rest who is the better boxer in this generation.

Arum's return to US may be even called Pacquiao - Mayweather negotiations II. The megafight should have happened in March but negotiations bogged down due to the unresolved issue of drug testing.

Congressman Pacquiao sounded very traditional-politician when he said that he will give in to the voice of the people. And the people wants to see the best boxers slug it out on the ring and not take other opponents that they will just dominate.

As a Filipino, I commend Manny for not giving in to the whims of Floyd Mayweather then. But now, I believe that if Manny Pacquiao surrenders his pride a little and beat the crap out of Mayweather, it is definitely worth it.

I am marking my calendar for the Pacquiao - Mayweather megafight. I am praying for a Pacquiao victory.
