Now that the Juan Manuel Marquez-Floyd Mayweather fight has been reset for Sept. 19, it also need a new nickname.
Calling it “Numero Uno” is totally ridiculous. The entire world ranks Manny Pacquiao as Numero Uno among all boxers.
As always a helpful fellow, I hereby offer free of charge to promoter Golden Boy these possible replacment names for the JMM-Money May bout.
Btw, big sigh of relief from the IRS bean counters who will be first in line to get paid in front of both Marquez and Mayweather come fight night in Vegas.
NEW MARQUEZ-MAYWEATHER BOUT NICKNAMES:
1. Second To One
2. On Deck Circle Near Numero Uno
3. Between First Place And Third Place
4. Hey, Wait A Second
5. So Close To Pacman Yet So Far
6. Who’s Better Other Than Pambasang Kamao?
7. Sure Manny Owns The Bus But We Can Sit In The Back
8. The IRS has Mayweather Ranked Number One
9. If Juan Ma Wins, He Wants A Third Chance Against Numero Uno
10. Wonder What Shane Mosley Is Doing Tonight?
Finally this reaction from Pacman as to the rescheduling was fairly mild.
“I am a better swordsman than both of them combined,” Pacman said.
