Manny Pacquaio vs. Adrien Broner

[btcrut2017]

Pacman is somewhat pressured with this fight with Broner as he has to show to the fight fans that he still has that quality to get that rematch with Floyd.

I guess that one is already settled and Mayweather paid around $600,000 USD and additional $150,000 for DJ Khaled. That amount of $750,000 USD I guess is nothing compared to what he earned in promoting those ICO's. That guy (Mayweather) will not settle anything for less than 1 Million USD for him to promote.

The fine that is being asked by SEC is just a penny for Mayweather but still it creates a dent to his portfolio.

Yes you are definitely right, If Manny wins in this one he'll probably get a rematch, the age gap between pacman and broner is quite huge and I think its gonna be a fight against the experienced boxer against a bruiser and probably a hyped up one, I heard what Broner said, he is pretty confident in the press con, but I'm.still sticking with Manny on this one.

Floyd Mayweather will fight if someone offers a huge payout, Floyd Mayweather is not out to entertain people, he is out for the money.

Because he's for the money, he has to face this first before the rematch.

Mayweather & DJ Khaled Slapped by the SEC in Centra ICO Scam

That amount of $750,000 USD I guess is nothing compared to what he earned in promoting those ICO's. That guy (Mayweather) will not settle anything for less than 1 Million USD for him to promote.

I won't doubt that this issue on him would be fixed quickly. Yep, this amount is just a peanut to him and he can pay for him so he can take back what's taken from him which is his reputation.

Going back to the match,

Pacman is somewhat pressured with this fight with Broner as he has to show to the fight fans that he still has that quality to get that rematch with Floyd.

I don't think that he's been ever pressured with his fight. I don't know any reason for him to get pressured just because of these. That's a thing for him if this rematch will get loaded but if not, he's not bitter with it.

I don't think its nothing because Mayweather accepted the gig and was paid $600,000. For him this is a easy work, however, it turns out that Centra is a scam. So I don't know if this will affect his face value though. Obviously he is after the money and we hope those celebrities will think twice before promoting anything.

As much as I love to see Manny fight, he needs to consider to retire already, he has won as much money as is possible, he has great reputation, he has all the possible championships that he could ever want, so there is nothing more for him to win in boxing, I suppose that is very hard for someone to abandon something that they love but despite his best efforts he is getting older and it doesn't matter how good you are you cannot beat old age.

So the time has come in which he needs to seriously consider to retire, boxing is a very dangerous sport in which a single blow can be enough to change or even end a life.

Yes indeed it's a dangerous sports but we should consider the passion in which Manny has to boxing. I don't think Manny is fighting in the ring just for money alone, and I think he has other agenda. The sports he love just can't be retired so easily especially if it's the one that brings out the best in you.

[Moonmanmun]

My countryman Pacquaio will be prevailing winner.
He will beat this Boner into a blodd filled pulp for all of us to enjoy.
Make sure I bet my money early

Maybe until he has finally realized that it's time to hang up the cape until he still can. I agree he still has an excellent reputation known around the world as the Filipino Boxer. It's the letting go of the sport maybe makes it really harder. I agree that he might be in danger in a way just because of the blows to the head that could incur more injuries and he might not be coming back anymore. I think he needs to think far ahead of his future and what he is going to do.

Every person probably would arrive at some point in their lives that it's one last game or continue to play and be in danger, if we are talking about people in sports. I guess we could also consider those who are really old and still are working. It just depends on the person I think.

He will not consider the retirement because he is still winning, now he wants a better fight and if he will win this game then people will think that he is back again. Boxing is a big business and Manny although started from scratch has transform itself to a real successful man and he is very smart to continue to harvest the money while he can, retirement will only come when he is convince that he is aging and can't win fight anymore.

It's Adrien BRONER not boner mate. I'm with Manny's side but I'm not going to judge this way. The two sides are very confident on their fighters but let's all see until the match is done.

Boxing is boxing and every punch that is being thrown can change the game. I remember one match of Manny when a punch changed the match and turned the table against him, IIRC it was against Marquez.

Did you know he's also a multi-term senator (currently in office), professional basketball player, actor, and has a good shot at being president some day? I'd say he's already accomplished quite a bit, however you're right in that who knows, maybe he's only a concussion or two away from triggering some long-term cognitive problems. I could point to Mayweather as a man who still boxes despite being older than Pacman, however Mayweather dodges a lot of punches and that could be adding to his longevity.

Yes, and we know that a lot of sports figure that's know that they're aging unless they lost a fight in which they show signs of not throwing punches as they used to be, for example Manny's fight with ODLH. We see Oscar beaten to the punch and he even can't hit Manny that time. So until we see Manny getting slow and lost badly, he will still continue to fight I reckon.

Manny Pacquaio just turned 40 yesterday and obviously, no practice, no bouts, no roadworks, no sparrings etc. Yes it's a 2 day break to somehow rest his body.

And as expected, his birthday raffled cars, motorcycles and appliances. And of course the usual giving of grocery items. This was done in his town.

He will be expected to get back in sparring sessions today. No time to waste now as his fight against Broner is just a month away.

He is definitely pushing the limits to his own body. Might as well his mind also. It's just scary to think what could happen. Well, anyway, I just saw an article regarding about that and they said that he is still fast and not getting tired. Maybe he is getting into his condition but it's not the same as before, that's for sure. And I saw that he has no time to waste because it's literally game time for them.

Maybe his generosity would somehow get him pumped up by all the people who are supporting him. We will see what his training can result in the upcoming fight.

Pacman is somewhat pressured with this fight with Broner as he has to show to the fight fans that he still has that quality to get that rematch with Floyd.

I disagree. There is no pressure on Manny in this fight. I reckon Nate Diaz can stand and fight good versus Adrien Broner hehehe.

Also, Manny can get a rematch versus Floyd anytime, if the money is right and if the promoters think that it's the right time to scam the fans again hehe.

No pressure but he needs to win this in order for the fans to push a rematch against Mayweather.
Their last fight was an easy win by Mayweather as it was decided via unanimous decision and then Manny had his excused about shoulder injury.
If he is healthy and can win this fight, this will bring the attention of the fans in their rematch, as usual, Mayweather will get a big share in revenue but a $100 million is gonna be Manny's minimum earning, that's a big money in one night of fight.

[btc_angela]

Yes, I would agree that Manny has no pressure whatsoever. The pressure should be on Broner side and proved that his big mouth can deliver. We all know that he really can't back up his trash talking and if he losses to a old Manny then he will simply disappear again in the limelight and his AB = About Billions slogan or tag line won't happened and the media will be having another field day ridiculing him.

[bitgolden]

There is still a lot of time until the fight happens but this is nothing more than a warm up match for Pacquaio and that's it.

However, there are couple of stuff that boggles my mind, for what do they really fight for ? Not for the title for sure because if it was even at a risk Pacquaio wouldn't have gotten in to the ring, he is definitely so sure of himself that he will defend the WBA welterweight title that he looks at it like a 100% win.

Another weird thing is the official weights written right now are 147 for Pacman vs 140 for Adrien, wouldn't that create a problem for Adrien to begin with ? Should he pick up some muscle to at least level the ground ? With all of those things pointing out to an easy and quick win for Pacman I still think this is boxing and even during a fixed match which this potentially is, you can get a bad punch and get knocked out.

Broner was one of the options for next match. Business will continue. Manny wants to fight no matter what's the stake is.

Or is there "something" that you might want to point out?

140-147 is a Welterweight range so not a problem at all if that's the real weight once they step on ring. I mean, after weigh-in, their weight on the ring will now be different.

Well then, Broner used to fight on Welterweight division so adjusting will not be difficult to him, aside from he is just 29 years old.

Manny will entertained his fans and make this fight more enjoyable as the opponents have a big mouth and the pressure should be take from the person who loves to trash talk, Manny will be in a good position and more options to follow after this fight, its all about money when in terms of asking for rematch for floyd so this both fighters needs to entertain their  fans to pressure the money to flow around and force mayweather to fight and accept any rematch from this two respective camp.
