To Fighthype.com for that recent exclusive video of Floyd Mayweather, Jr.
Mayweather, Jr. has spoken the most revealing part of himself. Call it a sincere message, he sure has given all clues. Manny Pacquiao should have no excuses this time.

It’s clear the tide of demand has shifted to Mayweather, Jr.’s favor. Report has it Mayweather, Jr. will do evertyhing to make the bout with Pacquiao a reality. Advertisement
I do not know what set of excuses Team Pacquiao has, as of this writing. It looks like the son of Grand Rapids, Michigan has put Pacquiao on the spot. I thought Pacquiao still need to address his controvertial win over Marquez on May 5, the biggest Mexican holiday. I still believe Marquez won that trilogy by at least 2 points; I was by the ringside and, sure, so as the judges. Watching it through television is really different. With it, you hear American sportscaster Jim Lampley’s profusely praising Pacquiao and more biased shades of exposure. But, just as majority of my colleagues by the ringside, I saw Marquez landing rather clear and substantial punches than Pacquiao – numerically more. Pacquiao’s defense was broken. Yes, Pacquiao was the aggressor. But, he was ineffective. His ring generalship was in question. How could he command over Marquez effectively when he was ambushed rather more effectively.
Let me tell you this: no need to debate and backpedal my arguments about who really won the Pacquiao-Marquez trilogy. It’s enough the majority of the boxing public has spoken. Time is now to move forward.
Now, I see Top Rank in the midst of unclear disposition. The relevant call for Cinco de Mayo is a fourth encounter of Pacquiao with Marquez. At which time, I believe Pacquiao will overwhelm Marquez.
Then, the final consummation of Pacquiao versus Mayweather will be carried out.
Let’s bring it rather onto the neutral arena: Cowboy Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
Another plus for this site is that it offers 80,000 seating capacity and can flex to a maximum of 110,000, inclusive of standing and party rooms. Las Vegas offer definitely is too limited for such a boxing event as Pacquiao versus Mayweather, Jr., except that this same bout can boast Las Vegas economy sky high.
But, I am sure both fighters’ promotions will have the best financial offer if the fight is held in Las Vegas.
Stay tuned for more!
