Mayweather thinks Manny's juicing and wants him to take an olympic style drug test, and Manny doesn't want to because he claims it'll make him weak before the fight.. the drug test would take place 3 weeks before the fight, so they're in a stalemate. The Mosley fight was sposed to be Manny..
If this fight ever takes place, it could possibly be the biggest fight of all time.. but Manny's running for a political position in the Phillipines right now, so who knows what'll happen. |
1. No, that was a while back. Manny has now agreed to any test Floyd wants.
2. Manny has already won the people's vote. He is a congressman. |

| You know, I thought that Pac was doping at first, but PBF is scared. Even after Pac gave to ok to drug tests, PBF is making more demands aka excuses to not fight him. |

No, you just don't know anything about boxing. Joe Calzaghe retired undefeated and he had 46 fights, so Mayweather definitely hasn't got the record there. In fact, I have no idea what the undefeated record is, but Calzaghe was the first undefeated fighter to pop in to my head. |

I didn't follow Calzaghe until after the Kessler fight. I read/heard comments about him not fighting any real talent through out his career and not fighting in the US. He did fight an old Roy Jones and Hopkins in NYC and Vegas; respectively.
Kessler was the best of those three opponents. How about his previous 43 fights? Just wondering if u followed him. |

If Mayweather is going to lose, it will most likely be to an early round KO or stoppage, say in the first 3 or 4 rounds, because it usually takes him 3 rounds to get into a groove against people, if his chin holds up he could be seriously dazed early on and end up loosing to a decision. He is very cautious early on, almost every fight I have seen of him (old and new) shows this but against Manny it will be dangerous.
After seeing Sugar Shane Mosley make Mayweather's knees buckle twice in the first 2 rounds, left me giving the favor to Manny who is an offensive fighter that KO's or knocks people down in the first 3 rounds.
But Mayweather can roll his shoulders better than almost any current boxer which means not all these punches of Manny's will hit flush. If Mayweahter doesn't get stuck in defensive mode like Clottey always does and as Clottey did against Manny then he should have a shot at winning this fight because I think the Manny camp will focus too much on knocking Mayweather out which might be dangerous.
Off the top of my head for the win
52% for Manny
48% for Mayweather |
