The hysteria has been building for years. Now it’s go time for Floyd “Money” Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao, two of the best boxers in the business today. Actually, these fighters would cross genres in the game of boxing. It is The Fight everyone has been pointing to for ions. The finally came together to officially announce their upcoming bout on May 2 in Las Vegas. The undefeated, outgoing Mayweather going up against the quiet, hard-charging Pacquiao.
So what do we do now that te mega-fight has finally arrived? The better question would be where does boxing go once Mayweather get it on at the MGM Grand Garden Arena ? I guess those questions are for somebody else to answer down the line. But for now we can all get all excited and giggly about The Fight. The Fight really does not need any real introduction as it does become an official act of mayhem about to be unleased in the boxing ring for one of these two fighters to self-proclaim themselves as the best of the best, regardless of era.
Both men couldn’t be any different from one another except for their ring ambitions. Mayweather is the cool, confident and outspoken and undefeated ringmaster looking to looking to cement his claim as a boxing all-timer. Pacquiao fights for a purpose, a man seeking to do more for his homeland as a Congressional representative in the Philippines. Either way it goes, The Fight will surely be something worth remembering for decades to come.
