Mayweather wins it for me, probably on points or with a late stoppage if it becomes a one-sided contest.

What time does it start?

Mayweather will win on points.

Shit odds though so I've got a bet on Manny in rounds 10-12 coz I reckon he'll have to go for it by then and if anyone can knock out Money it's him.

Heart says Manny. Head says Mayweather all the way. Can't see a way Manny is going to win this.

Even with a five hour advantage I can't stay up for this one - too many delays. Fingers crossed for Manny.

In terms of contest, yes. In terms of masterclass - sometimes you just have to acknowledge...

Without a doubt. Pacquiao's game plan was taken apart within the first three rounds.

I don't like Mayweather, but that reaction from the crowd is poor. Best fighter won, by quite a long distance.

hmmmm... didn't watch the fight - not interested - and would have found it hard to decide who to support...

probably on slight balance Pacquiao who is/was only a philandering homophobe compared to Mayweathers repeated (serial) domestic abuse and violence against women history...

a plague on both their houses...

however - Pacquiao has now added ungracious loser to his side of the scale...

Bailed out last night and only just watched it on Virgin.

I wanted Pacquiao to win but didn't expect him to lose so gracelessly.

Mayweathers clever yes! But he's one boring feck*. Why the ref never took away a point for holding all the time was unbelievable! Neither fighter was in trouble at any stage of the fight. Was more like a sparring match!

Frankly, it was a big let down! The Manny Marquez fights were alot more entertaining!

There's talk of Khan fighting Money Mayweather. If Manny can't beat him Khan hasn't a hope in he'll. I like Khan but I think Floyd would pick him apart

I was content to read about the fight a few I spoke to today stayed up and wished they hadn't.

not really sure where you're going with this... I don't think boxers are any less likely to be decent blokes than anyone else, are they? I don't think it is expected or normal that a boxer should be a serial violent abuser of women - to me, that IS a shock headline.. why wouldn't it be? :conf:
