Reports about Pacquiao vs Mayweather have been going around for so many years already but nothing happens. This time, however, things are looking up again for boxing fans, as Pacquiao expressed his intent to finally fight Mayweather and get it over with. According to Sky Sports: "Speaking during a promotional trip to Hong Kong, said: 'I'm crossing my fingers - hopefully that fight will happen by next year.'"
It has been reported by sources that if Pacquiao wins his upcoming fight with Chris Algieri, there will be a One Billion Dollar offer on the table if he fights Mayweather. That's right, ONE BILLION DOLLARS. If that doesn't encourage Mayweather and Pacquiao to finally fight against each other, we dont know what will.
As previously reported, Floyd Mayweather has recently concluded yet another match victory. This time, with opponent Marcos Maidana.
According to sbnation,
"Floyd Mayweather's rematch with Marcos Maidana played out in the way most expected, with Mayweather taking a decision as he played it smart defensively and didn't allow Maidana to get in extended offensive flurries against the ropes.
With the unanimous decision victory, fans are left wondering 'what now?' for boxing's pound-for-pound king.
The answer seems to be a return trip to the ring in May--Floyd fights around Cinco de Mayo weekend and Mexican Independence Day weekend and only those dates--and likely against Amir Khan or Miguel Cotto.
Khan is on a three-fight win streak since dropping a decision to Lamont Peterson and getting TKO'ed by Danny Garcia. He's a big name and that's what Floyd needs. There are some who think his hand speed could give Mayweather fits, but his chin is a big liability. Still, Mayweather vs. Khan would draw, and Khan does have some skills."
Although the Mayweather Vs Pacquiao fight has been the talks for many years now, it seems that Mayweather is just too scared to fight the Filipino boxer, despite Manny's recent defeats. Fans are still convinced that Floyd will never allow Pacquiao to fight him, merely because he knows that there's a possibility for his to lose, and he just can't take that.
