The same bragging mouth of the last Mayweather is still dominating in his every interview today and he is not really convinced that Pacquiao is the best fighter of all time. He claims that he have never been lost ever and the fighter that can produce millions in every fight. This fight between them will be the trigerring device for the coming future Pacquiao vs Mayweather match, if ever he wins this July fight against the Juan Manuel Marquez which is also aiming to fight again Pacquiao.
I am really one of those who really loves to watch boxing and actually one of those who jump for joy when Pacquiao wins his latest fight. That’s why you might see some of my posts here discussing about boxing every now and then instead of the usual SEO tips and advices. Well, I just can’t rid myself from not saying anything about the fight and the things that I can provide for my fellow boxing fanatics. This is the reason that I will cover the Mayweather vs Marquez match here so you will find here the schedules, news, results and updates about the upcoming fight between these two Pacquiao rivals. I will also provide information on how to watch the said fight on pay per view (PPV), on the ring via tickets sold or via online streaming. As of now, I haven’t heard of any news about who will be the official media partner of the fight between Mayweather and Marquez in the Philippines.

I will update this post regarding this anticipated boxing match, so stay tuned guys!

I dont know about all you guys, but Marquez is still the better boxer for me even if he lost to Mayweather, The thing is that it wasn’t a match to begin with. As much desire that Marquez had to win, it was to tough to achieve because Mayweather is very strong (not a good boxer), he toughens up like a rock when waiting for the counter fighting, so when Marquez throws punches it’s like hitting a brick wall. To me, Mayweather made it difficult to watch because he wasn’t giving Marquez a fight, he only boxed when he saw Marquez wearing out, then he gives a couple of punches and thats it. LAME! what the hell man. His style and weight were’nt a match for Marquez alltogether. Marquez has by far better techinique for boxing, he just picked the wrong fighter. He gave it all that he possibly could, and I give him props for that, and he won with dignity. Mayweather did not knock him out, or left him beat up. Marquez was a super warrior till the end.

Mayweather is so f*cking boring to watch… Not my kind of boxer. Waiting for the counter… talking sh*t but not bringing it… He sucks donkey b@llz.

He is still undefeated, but in real life, he wouldnt stand a chance. I bet he wouldnt even beat a lightweight in the UFC.
