So what is the best bet on this boxing match?I have just received a free £5 bet on this.I know nothing about boxing but really I want to choose a bet that has some good odds,such as will there be less than 2.5 rounds,the bookies seem to think it will go the distance but in boxing there are always surprises.

This will be one a well of match, two big fighters with this huge promotion and show, probably in the end the two will win a lot of money, for betting games and for promotion, if they not win now when they have anounce the match months ago. But for me Mayweather will win, so if i make bet, i bet on he. But because i don't know to much of betting, maybe see forums and stuff on the internet is a better thing to choise a good betting for this match.

This is going to be one hell of a fight between two of the best from their generations that is the century , they already labelled it the fight of the Century and i think it will be fixed and the match will end in draw so as to preserve both guys reputation, anyway it might be i am just biased as i think boxing is fixed lol.
Anyway i will be betting and trying to watch this fight live hope it just goes the distance and we see a great fight between the two of them!
Posted by TheMachineQC: Mayweather is the safe bet. He has enough money to buy the arena, the reffs, the judges and their families. Boxing is like the WWF, it's all staged
But Pacquiao is a very very religious man, so maybe he will have god on his side. lol
The REAL big cash will be in the re-match. Re-match only happening if Floyd will loose tomorrow. So there is my reasoning to pick Manny, besides God.

I was talking to someone else who was thinking about a possible re-match and if the fight was really close or maybe a dodgy decision there could be another fight which would be worth 200m again. A lot of boxers are saying the Vegas judges may be biased towards Mayweather so maybe Manny will have to go for the quick knockout and at least a couple of good rounds early on will quiet the home crowd.

I haven't seen this fight yestrday because i had to get up early to work today but everyone was talking about this, as the fight of the century, for joining the two champions from USA and Filipines. I heard the american won, but it was a very nice fight. I've got to go look for some images on this, at least i will watch some of the best moments! Hope everyone's bets were ok! I guess the odds were tending to what happened in the ring!

'Super fight'? I think there are two things that typify the mind set of those involved in arranging this fight!
1. There were lots of boos at the end of the show. 2. Mr Mayweather claimed in interview that they had achieved what they wanted by making the fight worth 9 figures! $100, 000,000 (at least then!)

So no real surprises in tonights big boxing match,a points decision to the home favourite which appears to be the correct result,a few grumbles from paq about his shoulder but nothing major.Mayweather says he will have one more fight before retirement so the rematch is a possibility.
It was underwhelming but these things almost never live up to the hype. Also welterweight boxing is not my kinda thing besides the fact that both of these guys are passed their prime a good couple of years. Glad I didn't need to pay for this on PPV.

thats it .i think we are the true losers for waiting 5 years without any exact judgement,people will no longer interested watching boxing games so much.who ever will be crown as champion remains but no more payperview over its top price.
It's sad but it's true. Boxing seems like it's dying. There's no big draws to attract the casual fans except Mayweather mostly because of his record and his cocky attitude (people wanna see him lose). Even Klitschko who's been dominating the heavyweights for so many years or Kovalev in the middleweights dont attract many viewers.
Every Klitschko game ever are a borefest. He is slow, he is bland, his games are uneventful. Even the MMA have many barely watchable, boring matchups all the time - but at least those aren't always the overhyped, over-promoed ones...
Yeah. Good fights are usually the ones involving fighters who still believe they have something to prove.
Mayweather and Pacquiao were motivated by the money and that's about it in my opinion. You don't fight with an injured shoulder in boxing if you really wanna win... Plus Mayweather doesn't try to hurt the other guy, he fights not to lose.
Agree. Besides Floyd's tactics are always just 'suck out the life from your opponent' by the 7th, 8th round and on this game both of them come out as a well-fed, satisfied boxers 'cuz the huge sum of money they've gotten pre-game. They showed no risk, they showed no heart.
