4 more wins and Mayweather can count himself part of the invincibles :LOL:

i really wanted to see a battle :( Wheres Manny Pacquiao?

The Garcia fight was dirty, way too many low blows in that one.

Pacman has nothing left in him.

A lot of people are also questioning his decline coming right after the Mayweather talks led onto random drug testing.

Neh, no point. Another Ward vs Froch essentially. I like Froch but he's not brilliant, he's sloppy but his heart's in the right place and he gives it his all. Andre Ward is on another planet to him and Ward will dominate the division for years to come.

As for the drug testing, Usually in fights the dates for the drug tests are pre-determined in the contract.

Random drug testing would allow them to turn up unscheduled and take blood. Manny refused to this deal multiple times. There's always been a suspicion about Manny and possible cheating and drugs to be fair. Likely nothing but could be everything at the same time. It's all pointless anyway, as much as I praise the Pacman fans out there, they're way out of their depth with Floyd even with Manny in his prime. Mayweather is truly a boxing genius and is right on par with Ali. He's arrogant but that's to sell fights. He has massive respect for his opponents and is usually a gentleman after the fight and he's already booked his ticket to being one of the greatest ever.

Heh, I wish. Did you see the 114-114 card last night? Clearly something is up there and they'll not bother to look into it. Pacman was robbed by some horrid judging in the Bradley match too. Dodgy judges, weighted gloves, 'Bum fighting' and PED's are still rife in Boxing.

Infact, it was the same woman who scored Pacmans loss to Bradley.

Haye Vs. Fury is off! What a shocker!!!

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/boxing/24185997

SKY have spent a fortune marketing this fight, and producing various build up shows for next week.

To be perfectly honest only diehards would have paid extra for this fight as Haye is a has been who just want to make a extra buck while Fury is a nobody who will remain a nobody.
