Fight’s Over Bob

For what? Seriously.
Just as we’ve suspected, Bob Arum continues to hold up the Manny Pacquiao-Floyd Mayweather fight. He hasn’t been the only problem, but he’s become the biggest 1. Remember, he hates Mayweather.
As Oscar De La Hoya says, for the sake of boxing Bob, step aside and let saner heads prevail.

Though Pac Man won the 3rd fight between these 2, his star dimmed a bit.
Manny Pacquaio is taking more of a beating outside the ring than he did inside it Saturday against Juan Manuel Marquez. Despite earning a majority decision, it seems a majority of writers and fight fans believes Marquez won the fight. Interestingly, Pacquiao threw and landed more punches than Marquez, but that hasn’t stopped many to claim Marquez was robbed.
But a 4th fight between the 2? I don’t think so.
Thoughts?

Many folks believe Juan Manuel Marquez won his latest battle with Manny Pacquiao in Las Vegas Saturday night, but others believe Marquez didn’t do enough to beat the champ. Regardless, will this be enough for Pacquiao to lure Floyd Mayweather? Plenty of boxing fans believe after this performance, Pac Man is made to order for Mayweather. Best counterpuncher in the business, they say, meaning Pacquiao doesn’t have a chance. It seems curious that all of a sudden Mayweather would drop Manny like a bad habit.
So why does he keep running?

It Won’t Go The Distance This Time

Much was made of a buffed Juan Manuel Marquez at today’s weight-in in Las Vegas. Doesn’t matter. Manny Pacquiao will drop him like a sack of potatoes since Marquez insists he won the 2 previous bouts. Just another notch in Pacquiao’s belt.

Wake us.
We should be talking about a trilogy here, but again we’re fantasizing about the 1st time. Boxing. It’s like being in love with a whore sometimes.
Speaking of whores, Bob Arum, in an interview today with ESPN radio in L.A., wants to raise those pay-per-view prices for Manny Pacquiao-Floyd Mayweather Jr. to at least $70 or more.

Will Floyd Ever Come Out To Play?
-
As Manny Pacquiao prepares for his Nov. 12 bout against Juan Manuel Marquez in Vegas, much of the talk continues to center around whether Floyd Mayweather Jr. will find the balls to fight him. Bob Arum says the fight will never happen, but we believe Mayweather, like he frequently does, will duck the Filipino wonder until he ages another year or so. Mayweather rarely fights another quality boxer in his prime.
Regardless, the “People’s Champ” gets the Playboy treatment in a good read by Kevin Cook.

That means you too Larry Merchant. While some believe Floyd Mayweather Jr. was unfairly harsh on the HBO boxing analyst Saturday night, we believe he was on the mark as he was with his punches that dropped Victor Ortiz.

An Interesting Theory: Mayweather Loss To Ortiz Could Produce Big Fight With Pacquiao
-
Writer Eric Raskin believes a huge upset by underdog Victor Ortiz over Floyd Mayweather Jr. on Saturday in Las Vegas might eventually lead to a bout with Manny Pacquiao. By Raskin’s logic, and he offers some compelling reasons, Mayweather’s obsession with his unbeaten record (and a possible ass kicking) is why he keeps running from Pacquiao.

All Eyes On He

Floyd Mayweather Jr. opened camp today in Las Vegas in preparation for his Sept. 17 bout against Victor Ortiz, who must feel like the most overlooked and disrespected fighter in boxing now. Of course talk writers and and broadcasters didn’t want to talk much about Ortiz, so the conversation quickly turned again to Manny Pacquiao. Amir Khan, who pounded Zab Judah Saturday night in Vegas, also has made his way on Floyd’s radar.
Roger Mayweather, Floyd’s uncle and trainer, believes Mayweather-Pacquiao will happen next year. He apparently is weary of all of the talk that Floyd is afraid of Pac Man. “I want to see it so they can shut up,” Roger Mayweather said. “I already know what is going to happen. Everybody knows the truth. Everybody knows what time it is. People keep saying Floyd is scared of Pacquiao. But we know that’s not true.”
