By Dan Ambrose: On May 2nd, boxing fans will get a chance at seeing the huge difference between the styles and likely the intelligence of the two superstars Floyd Mayweather Jr (47-0, 26 KOs) and Manny Pacquiao (57-5-2, 38 KOs) when the two of them trade blows for the first time in their fight at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Mayweather has a lot of respect for Pacquiao and his boxing skills and power. But Mayweather also sees a lot of wasted movement and aimless moves that Pacquiao makes. He feels that is reckless of Pacquiao, because he puts himself in position where he had to put faith in his ability to take his opponent’s best shots each time he goes on the attack mode.

pac644By Babatis Banda: In just about two weeks, we are going know the truth about Floyd Mayweather Jr and Manny Pacquiao. It is either Mayweather cements his status as an All-Time Great (ATG), or Pacquiao assumes the undisputed P4P status that Floyd has held for years and years.

by

pac777By Yannis Mihanos: The Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Manny Pacquiao fight for many will decide boxing history when the two of them go at it on May 2nd at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Mayweather, Pacquiao not talking to the media, mainly Roach hyping fight

by

roach5By Allan Fox: After six years of waiting for the mega-fight between Floyd Mayweather Jr and Manny Pacquiao, boxing fans are finally getting the chance to see the fight on May 2nd. However, the fight may ultimately bring in less pay-per-view buys than what some had expected it to do.

The major problem is the lack of interviews that the fighters are giving. The whole build up to the Mayweather-Pacquiao fight is largely being carried on the shoulders of Pacquiao’s trainer Freddie Roach, who seems to have adopted the responsibility of giving pretty much all the interviews. This obviously isn’t a good thing, not if you’re talking about wanting to break PPV records and such.

by

roach67By Chris Williams: Floyd Mayweather Jr (47-0, 26 KOs) has feasted his entire career against fighters that attempt to hit him combinations and flurries. For some reason Mayweather just does incredibly well against fighters that come after him trying to overwhelm him with punches, yet his opponent always seem to try and use this same plan every time they face him.

On May 2nd, Mayweather will be facing Manny Pacquiao, a fighter who typically beats his opponents by hitting them with small flurries interrupted by and out attacks.
