Mayweather vs Pacquiao and the Winner is?



Less then two weeks away from the Super Bowl of Boxing Floyd Mayweather Jr vs. Manny Pacquiao. On May 2nd Las Vegas will be rocking with people traveling from all around the world to witness the most anticipated fight of the century. First Floyd Mayweather Jr who Height: 5' 8" and Weighs 151 lbs and Born: February 24, 1977 (age 38) his boxing record is 47 Wins (26 knockouts, 21 decisions), 0 Losses, 0 Draws and is the #1 Pound for Pound Boxer in the World.






Many Pacquiao who is Height: 5' 7" and Weighs 144l bs and was Born: December 17, 1978 (age 36) his boxing record is 57 Wins (38 knockouts, 19 decisions), 5 Losses (3 knockouts, 2 decisions), 2 Draws and is the #2 Pound for Pound fighter in the world.






So who will win between these 2 Legends? Easy, Mr. Floyd mMyweather Jr. who has never been defeated compared to Pacman who has been defeated 5 different times. Quick recap on Manny's last defeat. Pacquiao vs. Márquez IV Pacquiao fought Juan Manuel Márquez on December 8, 2012 the fight is for the "WBO's champion of the decade belt" at welterweight and with one second left in the sixth round Pacquaio was knocked out by Marquez who countered his jab with a ducking right uppercut punch to the jaw sending pacquaio for a minutes on the canvas resulting in a knockout giving Márquez the win to become the new WBO's "champion of the decade" while he was still behind the judges' scorecards despite Pacquaio' two knockdowns.






Now a recap on the Mayweather vs Marquez fight. On May 2, 2009, it was confirmed that Mayweather was coming out of a 21-month retirement to fight The Ring lightweight champion and #2 pound-for-pound Juan Manuel Márquez, at a catch weight of 144 lb on July 18 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas on HBO PPV. The fight was postponed due to a rib injury Mayweather received during training. HBO's sports series 24/7 was also rescheduled for August 29. The fight took place on September 19 in conjunction with Mexican Independence Day, traditionally a big boxing weekend. During the official weigh-in for their 142 lb bout, Mayweather failed to meet the weight limit at 146 lb and was fined as a result. However, it was later revealed that the contract was changed so that Mayweather could make weight within the welterweight limit of 140–147 lb as long as Marquez received a large guarantee. Mayweather won a unanimous decision after 12 rounds in a lopsided fight; scorecards read 120–107, 119–108, and 118–109. Marquez landed 12 percent of his total 583 punches, while Mayweather landed 59 percent of his 490 total punches.








With that it's just proof that Mayweather is the better fighter then Manny. Even though Floyd is older then Manny, he is also Faster and Stronger then Pacman and as long as Floyd continues to box the way he has that last 47x he will easily beat Manny by a Majority Decision. Floyd coming out of retirement with not boxing for over a year and his first fight back against Marquez, Floyd dominated him at every level in every round. Where Manny has lost to Marquez and had a Draw and many controversional decisons that favored Manny's Win. With all that said, look for Money Mayweather to move onto a 48-0 record after he beat's Manny Pacquiao on May. 2nd.
