Manny Pacquaio is a King

There's no question Manny Pacquaio is a king. But the man does not excite me anymore.

Perhaps because MP is so strong that sometimes his fight became monotonous. He always wins so there's no suspense factor there. His opponent will just change, but it's the same fight as before and Pacquaio will always be the winner. The bet will no longer be on who's gonna win (because it would always be MP), but on what round or on what decision. Can you see my point? It's because MP is unbeatable, the sports becomes dull and less exciting.

Manny Pacquaio is king. He's getting stronger and stronger. But His fight will be just like an old movie being replayed for the nth time unless a real opponent as mighty as him comes. And by that, I don't really mean Mayweather!

Pacquaio vs. Mayweather fight continues

The super fight every boxing fans dreamed of between Manny Pacquaio and Floyd Mayweather on March 13 continues. This time not in the boxing ring but in pay-per-view buys.

Previously, both fighters did not come out to a compromise which prompted Top Rank's Bob Arum, Pacquaio's promoter, to schedule a fight for Pacquaio with Joshua Clottey on March 13 at the Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Two days after Team Pacquaio's announcement, Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer also issued a press release via ESPN.com that Mayweather will fight also on the same date against an undisclosed fighter. Some of the potential names to fight Mayweather include former junior welterweight titlist Paulie Malignaggi, former lightweight titlist Nate Campbell, former welterweight titlist Kermit Cintron and junior welterweight titlist Timothy Bradley Jr. The fight will be staged at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, the original venue of supposedly Pacquiao-Mayweather bout.

With both of the world's best fighters fighting on different bouts, the real winner will be determined in the pay-per-views sales of respective fights. This is a really difficult time for boxing fans.

Pacquaio-Mayweather superfight off

The superfight every boxing fans awaits is off. In a press statement, Team Pacquaio's promoter Bob Arum said that both parties did not come up in an agreement on the issue of Olympic-style drug testing. Pacquaio vs. Mayweather dream fight slated on March 13 would have been history's biggest and richest and might not happen again in the next decade. It would have guaranteed each boxer $40 million each (including pay-per-view sales). But principle, over money, is the issue here. I think both camps have their own reasons (but honestly I think Floyd Jr and Floyd Sr. were just chickened of Manny's strength). As a boxing fan, I wish future negotiations will make this fight possible.

Maybe March is not just the right time. Please don't disappoint us, Manny and Floyd!
