Lennox Lewis Breaks Down Mayweather vs. Pacquiao
Former undisputed heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis weighed in on the super-fight, Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Manny Pacquiao - scheduled for May 2nd at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
Lewis, like most fighters as of late, is siding with Mayweather to get the victory.
Lewis told BBC Radio 5 live's Sportsweek - "Floyd is the best at side-stepping and movement and he's very quick and hard to hit. Pacquiao is a great guy when it comes to offence and trying to break a person down - he's trying to knock you out, so it's a great match-up between styles."
"I think Floyd has so much talent and quickness, that natural ability to win. It really depends on his heart. Pacquiao has a lot of heart. It's difficult but I think Mayweather has all the advantages, that natural ability and rhythm. Pacquiao, you never really know how he's going to come out because he's boxed differently on different occasions with different opponents."
Lewis himself has often pondered about the idea of coming out of retirement for a major fight. At 49-years-old, he quickly comes to reality and talks himself out of it.
"If I came out of retirement now and boxed Wladimir Klitschko I'm sure we'd make more money because we're heavyweights and command a lot more attention. People love heavyweights," Lewis said.
"I have dreamt about it - then woken up and talked myself out of it. My friend Razor Ruddock is coming back at 51. His last fight was 14 years ago and he's making a mistake. I don't think it's necessary to come back at this point."

Despite his upcoming megafight with Floyd Mayweather, Filipino ring icon Manny Pacquiao still played for Kia Carnival which pulled off another upset by beating the Talk ‘N Text Tropang Texters on Wednesday at SMART-Araneta Coliseum.

TMZ Sports ran a report last Tuesday night, claiming Pacquiao would discontinue his basketball play due to the upcoming Mayweather fight on May 2nd at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

That was wrong. Pacquiao entered in the second quarter of the game and stayed on the court for nearly seven minutes. However, he still failed to register his first career field goal after missing two three-point attempts.

Kia trailed by as much as 17, but fought back for the remainder of the period and grabbed the lead for good thanks to the Carnival’s superb three-point shooting led by Hiram Bagatsing who drilled six triples en route to 21 points.

It was the fourth game that Pacquiao played in and just last week, he finally scored his first point through a free throw line split in their upset of Purefoods.

Pacquiao said he will play for Kia once again on Saturday against fellow expansion squad Blackwater, according to Sports5′s Mara Aquino, before flying to the United States to continue his preparations for his fight against Mayweather.

SRL did it
after a long layoff
Against a better fighter than GGG
You don't see him running around calling himself TBE
Same here it happened to me during the middle rounds dude showed some serious heart.

“Floyd Mayweather,” Sanchez said to Fightnews.com when asked who Golovkin would be willing to fight at a catch-weight. “He’s [Golovkin] a small middleweight who doesn’t have a hard time making 160. So to make 154 I have said if I have enough leeway that I can start him a little sooner on losing weight. He comes to camp and he’s 168/169 pounds, we don’t start until the fourth or fifth week to shed one pound at a time.”

the only thing with this argument is floyd has a history of going up to that weight class while as the a- side (cotto) and as the b-side (cotto)Notice how all that catch weight talk hushed up after the Canelo fight
All of a sudden it became a "smart move.....Canelo shouldn't have said he would fight at a catch weight then"![]()
) floyds team took advantage of it
i mean come onfloyd aint getting credit if he beats ggg at 154GGG has also offered to fight Floyd at 154....a leisure that Marvelous wouldnt extend to SRL![]()
the only thing with this argument is floyd has a history of going up to that weight class while as the a- side (cotto) and as the b-side (cotto)
and hes gone up to fight people in his weight class his whole career
canelo and his team were running their mouth and being arrogrant (demanding floyd sign contracts before he appears on his under-card and shyt) floyds team took advantage of it
and let em know whos running shyt.
we cant ignore canelo outweighing him by damn near 20 pounds on fight night anyway
but you cant possibly compare that to manny pacquaio
this guy is fresh off catch weighting chris "zach ryder" algerii mean come on

All of a sudden it became a "smart move.....Canelo shouldn't have said he would fight at a catch weight then"![]()
