Fight Of The Decade Between Floyd Mayweather Jr And Manny Pacquiao Almost Finalized


UK Mirror Reports

Floyd Mayweather Junior's superfight with Manny Pacquiao is close to being sealed.

A source close to the negotiations claims that world pound-for-pound king Mayweather is edging nearer to agreeing terms.

The date of March 13 has already been pencilled into the fight diary and the Las Vegas casinos, New Orleans and Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones are falling over themselves to stage the showdown which will be the richest fight in history.

Both sides have agreed to a gagging order to reduce the chance of the negotiations being derailed by mud-slinging and talks are said to be progressing well.

Pacquiao's promoter Bob Arum of Top Rank set the ball rolling when he met Mayweather's promoter, Richard Schaefer of Golden Boy, last week.

Arum says he is now flying to see Pacquiao in his Philippines homeland to discuss the terms of a possible deal.

Pacquiao is coming off his latest win over Miguel Cotto and his showdown with Mayweather is expected to be at welterweight again.

This will be an advantage for Mayweather, who has beaten Oscar De La Hoya at light-middleweight, and two fights ago, Pacquiao was campaigning at lightweight.

Pacquiao's camp are relaxed about the 147lbs-limit for the fight because the Filipino has looked comfortable as he has moved up through the divisions.

The fight to stage the contest is already raging and Jones wants to put it on at his new home for the Cowboys in Arlington, Texas.

The Louisiana Superdome is a long shot and Arum would prefer to see the fight take place in Vegas, where he is based.

He is even looking into the possibility of staging the superfight in 30,000-seater temporary arena on The Strip.

I used to think floyd was the best boxer, but all this lying b******* about manny is p**** s***. How are you going to back down from the biggest fight that was ever going to be held in the universe. plus your the bigger man I thought you said it was easy MONEY. At first you said all he has to do is step to the plate and you will knock him out, and for him to stop saying to ask my promotors, now you are being a b**** and is letting your dad and tell you what to do like when you couldn't play basketball when you were a little kid. be a man and if you are scared of little manny ROSS will beat that ass. SO THINK ABOUT IT AND MAKE THAT PAPER.

manny's gonna bust may's ass , maywether is a stick and move type of fighter and dont like to get hit ,may's defence is great but manny is a f***** beast in the ring and dont stop coming at you, and he's just as fast and accuret as maywether , the key to this fight is that we have seen manny take a punch but we have never really seen maywether take one , and you better believe manny gonna catch him wit sum good shots , is maywether gonna be able to handle gettin hit bye a real boxer with power and speed ???
