Floyd Mayweather vs Manny Pacquiao: It’s Time

Who will win? After years of anticipation, “The Main Event” has arrived. Tonight in Las Vegas Nevada, Floyd Mayweather goes against Manny Pacquiao in what many anticipate as being the greatest boxing match in a very long time.

Manny Pacquiao is one of the greatest fighters of all time. His legacy will be an awesome one, and he’s doing a nice job of portraying a good guy. He has the inside, hard-punching style that could possibly hand the undefeated Mayweather his first professional loss. However, Mayweather will come out on top.

Both of these fighters are the real deal, and they both fight with styles that will make it difficult for the other fighter.

However, Mayweather is closer to his prime than Pacquiao. Also, Mayweather is a master at counter punching. Not to say this will happen tonight, but we have already seen a counter punch knock Pacuiao’s lights out.

Manny Pacquiao will have to get inside and knock Mayweather out if he is to win. The longer the fight goes, the more it should play in to Mayweather’s favor. The size and the reach also go to Mayweather.

My choice on paper is clear, but in this sport one actually has to fight the fight before a decision is made. Whatever the case, this should indeed be one for the history books. And no matter who wins, I hope they do it again.
