To all of us true fans of the sport, this could be the most anticipated fight of the decade. We have Floyd Mayweather, who in many eyes is the best fighter of our time. We also have Manny Pacquiao, who cleaned house in six weight divisions and fought the best opposition placed in front of him. If these two collide, it would settle once and for all who the true pound for pound king really is. But will it happen?
Mayweather signed on to fight Juan Manuel Marquez this July. During the official press conference, Leonard Ellerbe said that Mayweather was back and had a hit list. But just who is on this hit list? Obviously Marquez is the first. A future hall of famer, Marquez is a test for anyone, but having only fought above 125 pounds once and signing to fight at a catch weight around 143, the legitimacy of this fight is in question.. Yes, he is the one man to give Pacquiao some real problems, but Floyd is bigger and fighting closer to his natural weight then Marquez. If Mayweather can get past him, and most of us suspect that he will, who is next? read more
