Well at least those two would put on a good show


Their first fight wasn't the most entertaining one.


I agree. I've never liked Mayweather's style. He usually controlled the outcome of his fights before he got in. It's all about the money with him and I don't doubt he paid off a lot of people for his wins. He could be the next Don King.
His defensive style tactics is boring and he only connects to make points.

Reminds me of that farce fight between Sugar Ray Leonard and Hagler where Leonard just ran away all the time with occasional rabbit punching flurries. Leonard was a heroin junkie at the time too.

Boxing back then follows the money and Media.

Pacquiao should just stand his ground and tell Mayweather to engage, rather than chase him around.

I lost all respect for Ali when he fought Ernie Shavers. Ali just ran away show ponying, staying away from Shavers big hits. The crowd even booed Ali for his gutless tactic of just waiting for Shavers to tire, who hadn't gone past 8 rounds, with Ali just darting in jabs to fill the scorecard.

the bigger guy usually wins

a punch from a heavier guy has more heft to it.
the smaller guys punches do not have as much impact.
the bigger guy can take more thumping anyway.
the smaller guy is punching upwards

You're right Sprint. Tyson & Usyk are good examples.

Moses Itauma's rise to prominence has been sensational,
blowing heavyweights away spectacularly.
DAZN look at the heavyweight sensation's rise up the ranks.

They should match him up against Tyson Fury.
Put an end to Fury's big mouth.
