Mayweather vs Pacquiao Results, Replay


Within days of Pacquiao’s controversial win over WBO/WBA lightweight champion Juan Manuel Marquez (53-6-1, 39 KO’s) on November 12 the rumors started to fly that a breakthrough was imminent and that the super fight at long last was going to come to fruition. The Mayweather camp had already reserved the MGM Grand in Las Vegas for May the 5th supposedly for Floyd’s next fight. It was not
clear at the time who his opponent would be but when Mayweather’s adviser Leonard Ellerbe said that “Money” wanted the “little fella” next it was a clear hint that the “little fella” was Manny Pacquiao.
Then when Manny pulled out the close victory against Marquez there was a flurry of activity that Floyd was now anxious to fight Manny. The reasoning is simple. Pacquiao struggled against an opponent who Mayweather had defeated with ease. In fact Floyd pitched a near shutout against Marquez when they fought in 2009. All the hype that the new and improved, bigger stronger and now two handed Pacquiao did not translate as expected in the ring. Many boxing observers saw this as an opportunity for Floyd to take on his long time nemesis.
