Would a Mayweather-Pacquiao fight be possible at last?

hi there. based on the latest reports from the manny pacquiao-bob arum camp, pacman's next fight won't be with mayweather. instead, they are looking at three possible opponents, bradley, marquez, and possibly miguel cotto. there are certain challenges to each possible match-up. for miguel cotto, it is highly unlikely that he will go down again at 147 pounds. getting an agreeable catch weight for both fighters is the main obstacle here. plus after the pounding that cotto got the last time these two fighters met, i doubt if it will generate much buzz among boxing fans. for bradley, although it can generate a lot of buzz and interest because pacman did not win that fight in a controversial split decision, promoters are worried that it will not generate enough pay per view buys. that match between pacquiao and bradley was one of the fights with the least ppv buys and this certainly has economic impact for both fighters. after bradley's 'win' over pacquiao, i doubt if he will still settle for the 5mil pay that he earned the last time out. so from a business standpoint, this match doesn't really make sense for the boxers and boxing outfits involved. now, let's go to the possible marquez-pacquiao match. this will be the fourth installment between these ring warriors and let me tell you that i'm a big fan of the trilogy. honestly, i can say that pacquiao won the first two matches but i think the third one was a draw at best. now, pacquiao did say and this is also supported by boxing analysts that marquez is a good fit against pacquiao's fighting style. pacquiao's main advantage back then was his speed. his power was a bonus that he had in his arsenal but it was his speed that lead him to all those previous wins. now, pacquaio ain't getting younger and he ain't getting faster. he is a step or two slower nowadays. plus, marquez, has been saying all this time that he won that last match against marquez, in fact he has a book out about it. so there is buzz and there is interest about a possible marquez-pacquiao IV plus this interest can readily translate into money by way of ticket purchases and ppv buys. also, pacquiao needs a big ticket fight to get leverage against the mayweather camp. if he ends up with a not so impressive fight next outing he might get the short end of the stick in the mayweather which for sure pacquiao doesn't want. as for the best time for the mayweather-pacquiao fight to happen? most likely summer of 2013 is my bet. cheers and happy mylotting!!!

Even me, friend. I want Pacman and Pretty boy to fight. But the problem was Mayweather didn't want to fight Manny, but only fight for words. If Mayweather, really want to fight Manny. There is no more condition or alibi to make the fight possible...

It will be next year if the two best pound for pound fighters will agree. This is a long awaited much around the world. I do not want to heard Mayweather trash talking during boxing match. Manny Pacquaio should be wise during Maywether's fight. Pacquiao should be serious in training and forgot the word of God. Just think Floyd Mayweather. Both are very good speed and tactics. I hope the match will be happen.

Hi, Sometime ago, I used to anticipate the fight but what happened lately put an end to my enthusiasm. I feel I have been fooled all along, what with the rigging of the results to take the best advantage of the promoters to get the most money from the event. Now I don't really care if Pacquiao win or lose, I'll have to stay in front of my TV set and go to sleep if I have nothing better to do than watch the whole mindless shenanigan. Just a waste of time really.

This will not occur as long as Mayweather is still Gayweather! It is only Mayweather who is dodging the fight against Pacquiao. I sure hope this fight will happen.

that would be difficult to for both of them to meet in the ring many factors are being discussed on that fight and for now Pacquiao possibly have rematch on the last fight.etc. and for Mayweather is at jail for now :D, 2-3 years i think they will meet at the ring if Pacquiao will not retire from boxing.
