Pacquiao is no where near his prime and is playing basketball now (lol). Mayweather has arguably the best defense in the history of boxing. Its either mayweather or no bet imo

Fight should have happened 4 years ago for maximum relevance.

At this point both have slowed to some degree but Pacquiao has declined further. But Floyds age could be an issue as fighters often look fresh one fight and then old the next when they get up in age. Often it's not a gradual process. So perhaps this could be the case with Floyd who is now pushing 40.

Yeah i would agree 4 years ago wouldve been nice, but I would go with Mayweather on this one, Pacquiao is too distracted by other commitments these days. I'm looking for KO Mayweather 8th round ....ding ding

-280 / +240 $1,000 max bet @ 5Dimes.

For noobs and Google traffic visitors, this means:

Can bet up to $2,800 to win $1,000 on Mayweather
Can bet up to $1,000 to win $2,400 on Pacquiao

After making a max bet you can bet again right away if the line moves, or wait a few minutes for limits to reset. Can make multiple max bets.

mayweather is the most overrated athlete in the history of sports and I hope he gets put in a coma by pacquio. Too bad it wont happen but still.

Im not a boxing expert but who has he beaten?? Hes like at least a 9-1 favorite in every fight that Ive seen. Hes made a very calculated career decision to never really take a challenging fight, and has avoided pacquio (the only real legitimate threat) for his entire career. Plus hes a complete scumbag and I just hate the guy.

He isn't the first great fighter to duck the most threatening guys but that's most ever guy today. Champs don't want to fight with any real threats. They want to fight guys that they can have a good fight with but who provide no real threat.

Didn't Pacman have a solid amateur career... I don't remember him fighting in the States at anytime before 18, or is that incorrect?

Just thinking different peaks within a boxers career, and if he already peaked in which I believe he has then this fight is done.

Grumpy & Prop Player let me know where theres solid lines to take this throughout next month PM me when it pops up

It's been a while since there was a big PPV. Does anyone have a rough time frame of how the night will go?

I'm mainly looking for what time the undercard will start, what time the main event will start, and how many of the undercard fights will be televised (either on the PPV or somewhere else?)

Pretty Boy vs Golden Boy had nine fights on the undercard! I can't imagine they all aired.
