    Mayweather v Pacquiao

    So the fight is tomorrow. What does everyone think? My thoughts are Pacquiao will possibly win by knockout late in the fight.

    Mayweather on points. Possibly a very late stoppage if Pac gets reckless although it's been a while since he stopped anyone.

    Expect Pacquaio to start fast, Mayweather to figure him out fully by round 4 or 5 and control it from there.

    I fancy Pacman myself.

    Will just wait and see the highlights tomorrow though as I'm not forking up for it on Sky!
    Madness, as you know, is a lot like gravity. All it takes is a little push.

    A little like baseball, I like to listen to boxing on the radio. I see 5 Live is broadcasting it. So I'll move my radio next to my bed and wake up at 4 to listen.

    Can't see past mayweather. If pac man is going to win, he'll need to chin him and do it early.

    Fingers crossed for manny, but just don't see it.

    Mayweather for me, think he will knock Pacquiao out in about the 8th round, maybe earlier.

    Mayweather for me alothough I wouldn't be surprised if Pacman turned him over. I'm going with Mayweather on points. #TheMoneyTeam 😎

    If Pac's going to win it's going to have to be by KO and it'll need to be within the first few rounds. Mayweather on points for me although hope the wee man can do it!! Then we do it all again in September

    It would make sense for Mayweather to loose this and double his money in a rematch, since he's all about his cash.

    Hoping for a good fight!

    Floyd started better. Looks like manny is out for a ko in 6,7,8.

    Agreed.

    Pacquiao needs a KO. Which is unlikrly imo, Floyd is a lot quicker than he gets credit for.

    I wanted Manny to win but I just don't think he's good enough. Floyd is techinally excellent but he take a good dig. Manny needed a ko.

    Mayweathers fight.

    If there's any controversy here it's a farce.

    That was very comprehensive. I expected manny to push more but he couldn't get near him.

    Think manny must have been hit hard as there is no way he could seriously think he won.

    You have to remember that I'm an American, but yes I do.

    You obviously don't sit there and listen with your full attention on every word of the commentary. But it's good to have on while driving or working on something at home.

    I watched about half an hour of a baseball match on the telly while in a restaurant in Florida last summer and i think they managed to actually hit the ball twice in the entire time.........its basically cricket with hot dogs
