Random Ramble: April 13, 2014

 

Manny Pacquiao is once again getting on the top of the foodchain as he regains his WBO welterweight title from once-undefeated Timothy Bradley. Whether he faces his critics (religious or not) or busy with his politician life, he never forgets that he is one of the greatest fighters in the world. However, there’s still one question: will he ever face the another undefeated warrior by the name of Floyd Mayweather, Jr.? Only time will tell.

Top 5 Reasons Why We’ll See Pacquiao-Mayweather Encounter

1. From day one, people were asked who’s the best fighter and the answer lies inside the squared ring.

2. The money! Let’s face it: anyone who’s in charge of that said event will gain more revenue, not just boxers, coaches, PPV company like HBO and those who gamble for the win.

3. In any event that will happen, Manny will definitely taste Floyd’s first defeat.

4. Trending on Twitter, Facebook and other social networking sites. I’m pretty sure these will get more traffic in a good way.

5. To prove that Manny isn’t using performance-enhancing drugs Floyd Sr. mentioned before.

Top 5 Reasons Why We Won’t See Pacquiao-Mayweather Encounter

1. Manny Pacquiao’s getting old and is on the verge of retirement. If you search that term on Google, many people persuaded him to retire even by his Mommy Dionisia.

2. He’s a politician from Saranggani Province. What’s the point in winning event after event when he has his hands full on politics.

3. There are new breed of boxing professionals who will end Mayweather’s undefeated record like Nonito Donaire.

4. He gains more revenue outside boxing like product endorsements. Like most sports professionals, Manny has a lot of endorsers after he gain victories at the hearts of people outside his country.

5. As of now, Floyd hasn’t accept the controversial offer from Bob Arum. Like the old saying, what he wants is what he gets.

Regardless of many reasons, we shall see if the fight between them will happen.
