Update: Mayweather vs Mosley Poll

The website of Golden Boy Promotions released an interesting update on the "Who R U Picking?" Mayweather vs Molsey poll. It shows a statistical information on who among the two boxers will win on the May 1 boxing event from the people of East and West coast to male and female data. On my previous post (A Lot of Fans Believe That Mayweather Will Win via Decision), I said that majority of those who participated on the poll choose Mayweather but I based it on HBO Boxing's poll.

The poll result provided by Golden Boy Promotions is quite different because it shows that Mosley got an even vote against Mayweather. This mean that many believe in the boxing skills and technique of Mosley and will definitely see a really great fight .

Here's the poll result from GoldenBoyPromotions.com:

Mayweather > East Coast: 59% = West Coast: 46%
Mosley > East Cost: 41% = West Coast: 54%

For the detailed result of the poll, you can proceed to GoldenBoyPromotions.com.

Now what do you think about this result of the Mayweather vs. Mosley poll? Will Mosley can really make Mayweather get the first lost of his life? Let us find out on May 1, 2010 at Las Vegas, Nevada.

Pacquiao Thinks Mosley Can Win on Mayweather vs Mosley Fight

Who R U Picking? This is the marketing slogan of the upcoming Mayweather vs. Mosley fight this coming May 1, 2010. A lot of boxing fanatics already cast their votes and even the pound for pound king selected a fighter already that might win on this boxing event. Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao chose Mosley to win on this event based on his interview at Yahoo Philippines.

"I pick Mosley to win that fight because he can throw a lot of punches compared to Mayweather who's a very defensive boxer. Defense can't win fights, especially against a fighter like Mosley who relies on speed," said Pacquiao.

However, Esteban Garduno of BoxingNews24.com disagreed with him regarding his statement that "Defense can't win fight." and said that "Actually, defense wins fights all the time in boxing. Just mindlessly throwing punches doesn’t win fights." He also added that Pacquiao's performance on his previous fight against Joshua Clottey was "awful" and said that if it was Mayweather then Pacquiao might have picking up his teeth on the canvass and might be asking what has happened.

I am just thinking if that is the case that Mayweather can make that happen against Pacquiao then why does Floyd Mayweather Jr. keeps on docking Pacquiao by a foolish claim of cleaning the boxing world with unnecessary tests that is not part of any rules of boxing commission? Why just can't fight him without any conditions? He is a boxer not a member of the board of the boxing regulations.

Ah let just see if he can do it with Mosley. I hope Mosley will not be affected by any kind of "pressure" or "boxing politics" that will cause his "unnecessary defeat" against Floyd. I hope not!

Floyd Mayweather Jr. on Pacquiao is Amateur after "The Event"

I first read this statement of Floyd Mayweather Jr. from a local newspaper here in our place and since I'm busy this morning I wasn't able to read his full statement with regards to Manny Pacquiao's performance against Joshua Clottey on the March 13, "The Event" welterweight championship.

Luckily I found his full statement from the web and at least I (we) could react on this. Here's what Mayweather said

"Personally, I think Pacquiao got exposed in that fight for being one-dimensional. You can have all [the] offensive ability in the world but with no defense you're not going to last long against a good counter puncher such as myself. Look at the way Clottey was getting through, each time he threw something it landed. Then at the end Pacquiao's was all busted up, when’s the last time you’ve seen my face all messed up like that? That’s the difference between an amateur and a true pound for pound boxer."

"The attendance numbers ain't nothing compared to what I have drawn in the past or what I would have drawn if that was me in the ring that night, everybody knows that. Half those seats were empty in the back and people say Pacquiao is a draw? Let's not forget who generated 2.5 million PPV buys in one fight alone. The only reason why he’s popular is because he's an ethnic minority and from the Philippines so it's something special. If he was from Africa he would be just another boxer."

Personally, I agree that Pacman did exposed himself during the fight on Clottey but I believe that it is part of his strategy to lure out Clottey from his defensive shell. Boxing is not a beauty contest but a strategic action-packed sports that involves faces to be inline. I agree with Mayweather that his face is not messed up every time he fight (like Clottey) because he is a defensive fighter and loves to run around the ring with his pretty face. I believe that its not true that Pacquiao is one-dimensional, the Pacman can adjust to any situation given to him for different fighters.

Regarding the number of audiences to attract for the fight well I can't comment on that, I got no statistics about this but if you will asked me if I will watch Mayweather vs. Mosley, well, the answer is YES. Not because I am a fan of Mayweather but because I like to see Mayweather prove his point that he is really the true pound for pound king and at the same time, I like to see if he can loose to Mosley and what will be his reactions (what will be his pretty face) will look like after a defeat. A scene that I think a lot of boxing fanatics love to see.

Well if Mayweather will lost on Mayweather vs. Mosley on May 1 then there will be no hope for future Pacquiao vs. Mayweather fight.

How about you? What's your reaction about the statement of Mayweather about Pacquiao?

Official weigh-in came yesterday and Manny Pacquiao is much lighter compared to Joshua Clottey having a 145lbs compared to Clottey with exactly at the welterweight limit of 147 lbs. Both fighters are excited and having fun during the weigh-in but it seems that Clottey didn't bring his supporters. Manny on the other hand got a roaring audiences and almost threw his shoes to his fans because of excitement.

Based on what I have seen, I think the Pacquiao vs. Clottey will result in a win but not that as easy as other expect. I think Clottey can go the distance and finish the 12 round. If he still the Clottey that got a hard core shell defense that we know.

Good luck to you guys and have fun watching this fight!

Why Pacquiao vs. Clottey is an Interesting Fight?

A lot of buzz happened when Top Rank Promotions announced about the upcoming fight involving the underrated but skilled fighter Joshua Clottey. Some boxing analysts (as they claim), said that Clottey will be a sacrificial lamb for Manny's political career. It will be a waste of time for the "king" of the ring to fight somebody who have lost to someone he had beaten last year (I'm talking about Cotto that beats Clottey on their previous fight). They keep on saying the fight is not that interesting to watch. But why they have sold over 35 thousands tickets (as far I have known today, maybe its more than that) to watch Pacquiao vs. Clottey in Cowboys Stadium? Why a lot of fans still wants to see the said first ever welterweight defense of the champ?

Here are some of the reasons why I think it is very interesting and based on what I have read on the world wide web:

• Joshua Clottey is a dangerous fighter. He got 3 losts but doesn't convince the boxing audiences that he was really beaten. All fights that he losts of underscore. He got a long, heavy jab and he uses it relentlessly as he presses forward behind a solid defense (source: http://www.ringsidereport.com/?p=1458).
• Audiences want to see if Manny Pacquiao can deliver the first knock-out for Clottey. Never on Joshua's career that he has beaten kissing the canvass sleeping. 
• Clottey is really a strong fighter and even when he was injured during his fight with Margarito still he wasn't KOed but prove to all the audiences that he is worth to challenge any welterweight fighters and that includes the Pacman.

Now what do you think? Do you find this March 13 "The Event" interesting or not? Leave your opinions below.

Pacquiao vs. Mayweather Possibilities

After the successful win of Floyd Mayweather Jr. against Juan Manuel Marquez, boxing promoters, analysts and fans are thinking of who will be his next opponent. Its a lot of buzz that roaming that the biggest fight that might happen will be Mayweather vs. Pacquiao. Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao of the Philippines is currently the number one in different ratings and rankings of the world while the undefeated Mayweather falls only on 2nd but still claiming to the world that he is number 1. Pacquiao is currently training to face Miguel Cotto this November 14 for the Pacquiao vs. Cotto welterweight championship. This Pacquiao vs. Cotto fight should be concluded and conquered by Pacman before the Pacquiao vs. Mayweather should be discussed by both camps (which I am positive that he can defeat Cotto).

However, despite this possible million (or maybe billion) dollar fight, both camps still don't show any confirmation or big possibilities that this match up will continue. As Pacquiao is running for a political post in the Philippines this 2010 and planning to retire. While Mayweather is still very difficult to talk to when it comes to sharing in the generated future earnings of the fight.

What do you think about this fight, is it possible? If in case it does happen, are you excited with it already? Leave your reactions below.

Mayweathers Reunited

The HBO 24/7 series featuring the Mayweather vs. Marquez fight this coming Saturday shows how the family Mayweather reunited again and supports each other as Floyd Mayweather Jr. will come back on the ring to fight Juan Manuel Marquez. This is what I have read from the Canadian Press today regarding the said reunion of the Mayweather.

Mayweather (39-0, 25 KOs) was estranged for most of the past nine years from his father, Floyd Sr., who first taught his toddler to punch and later drove his early career. Mayweather Jr. then rose to the sport's apex under the direction of his uncle, Roger, who has his own slate of issues with his nephew and siblings - and the occasional battery charge.

But in the months leading up to Mayweather's comeback fight against Juan Manuel Marquez on Saturday night, the father and son reunited. Floyd Sr. now joins Roger in the gym, eager to add his two cents on Little Floyd's training. - Canadian Press

Well will this last until the end of the fight? Let just see how this bond enough to make a victory of the match.

Bob Arum Said Fans Will Not Spend Watching the Fight

Floyd Mayweather Jr.'s come back on the boxing ring on his fight against Juan Manuel Marquez was something that fans are looking into be the next opponent for Manny Pacquiao of the Philippines. However, Bob Arum in an interview said that the fight will not be patronized by a lot of boxing fans because the fight "stinks." Bob Arum said that Mayweather's being a defensive fighter and he doesn't engage his opponent makes it a stinking fight. He said that fans will not pay for running but for a showdown of punches and action-packed fight of a real fighter.

"He's a boxer and he has to entertain. Outside the ring, Mayweather entertains but in the ring he doesn't." - Bob Arum said in the interview.

Well, this is the same story that I have heard from my friend that watched the previous fights of Mayweather. He is a running boxer :) and it seems that he is scared to get hit, added by my friend. What do you think about this comments of Bob Arum? For me, it is in the hands of Marquez now on how the fight will go on the ring, if he will give a show for fans to watch or something that both of them will regret later.

Who will win the Fight? The Poll Says...

Well, who do you think will win the fight between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Juan Manuel Marquez on their boxing showdown this coming Sept. 19 at the MGM Arena at Las Vegas, Nevada? Is it the undisputed and undefeated Mayweather who claims he is the real king of the ring or the Mexican fighter Marquez that said that he is the man born to destroy the records of the latter?

Both of this fighters are great on their fields and been showing an impressive records. Of course, people are comparing them to Pacquiao who is very silent about the fight and we already know their buzzes. Now, if I will base it the poll on the right, as of today, a lot of people believe that Marquez has it takes to beat the retired champ and he is even ready to challenge Pacman again.

What do you think, cast your vote on the poll and let us know how you feel about this.

Mayweather - Marquez vs Pacquiao - Cotto Match

It seems that the buzz about the upcoming Pacquiao vs. Cotto covered the Mayweather vs. Marquez fight on September. Despite the noise and buzzing of the upcoming match of "Dinamita" Marquez and "Money" Mayweather, the fans are more likely more interested about the mentioned upcoming November match. Well, it seems that they still lack the "people power lurer."

What do you think, fans of Dinamita and Money, do you believe with this stories or are you still interested to watch this match at all? Let us know by leaving your comments here.

Fight Analysis of Mayweather-Marquez Match

Its almost two months before the fight between two Golden Promotions fighters namely Floyd Mayweather, Jr. and Juan Manuel Marquez. Both fighters will fight to protect both interest: Mayweather protect his comeback to the boxing world while Marquez his honor and righteousness of being a worthy opponent for Pacquiao. My personal analysis about the fight is that Mayweather might beat Marquez if he hits the latter on the body as he usually does. However, Mayweather should maintain his defenses against the counter punches of the Mexican fighter.

I think Marquez will loose against Mayweather if he was unable to knock him down. If he will let him stand up to the end of the rounds, it will be Mayweather's advantage.

What do you think, how can each other beat each other?

Why Mayweather wants Marquez on his Return?

Mayweather's come back on the boxing world has been one of the talked buzz on the net and on the sport news in TV or radio. A lot Twit about it and made special website for this return. Now, people are asking why Mayweather preferred Marquez to be his opponent than anybody else. One of the quoted statement of the latter from HBO's official announcement of the continuation of the Mayweather vs Marquez: Number One / Numero Uno match, is that:

"I didn't want to fight a has-been when I came back. I wanted to fight one of the best in the sport, and that's what Marquez is. I'm not overlooking him and, hopefully, he's not overlooking me even though he might be thinking I'm a little rusty." - Mayweather, HBO Boxing News.

Well, I think he is right with his statement that Marquez is indeed one of the best boxer in the sport. He proves it a couple of times including his recent match with Juan Diaz and his close match fight against Manny Pacquiao. What do you think, is Marquez really can cope up with Mayweather?
