Well. it looks like the Pacquaio and Mayweather fight may not materialize this year like many fight fans wanted. If it ever does happen, it probably will not happen until sometime in 2010. It seems that he damaged cartilage in his ribs and has been told by his camp to stop training until a doctor gives the go ahead. This also means that the fight with Juan Manuel Marquez will also be moved up maybe later this year. So what do you fight fans think? Maybe, what has unfortunately to Floyd may all be for the best. In addition to his injury healing, he will also be afforded additional time to train for both Marquez and Pacquaio, which will be two tough fights for him. At least his ribs are not broken and hopefully his recovery time will not be lengthy. I am sure that his corner want him at the top of his game and most fight fans do also.
No one wants any excuse when he fights Marquez and Pacquaio. Marquez is definitely a tough cookie and Floyd will have to be at his best. And if he gets through Marquez, he will definitely have to fight Pacquaio. All I know is one thing is that he better be ready because there is no doubt about it, this I feel will be his toughest challenge. He will be fighting a beast of a fighter who is exceptionally aggressive and will not back down. If you look at Manny's fights, not once have you seem him back down, always coming forward to punish you and like DeLa Hoya beat you into submission. I am sure Mr. DeLa Hoya does not want anymore of Pacquaio. He really got embarassed.
It will really be an exciting fight as they both are excellent fighters to watch. Manny has been labeled as the Mexican assassin and he pulverized Ricky Hatton. What will he be called if he defeats Mayweather? Floyd seems to think that when he fights Pacquaio, it will be a cakewalk for him, but best he be beware. This young man hits exceptionally hard for his size and there is no doubt that he made a believer out of DeLa Hoya. Anyway fight fans we all will have to wait until sometime next year to see this upcoming masterpiece of a fight.
