But it looks like the fight is going to push through despite Broner having personal problems. But it's crazy though, $1 million for jewelry alone? That's why boxers really need to be careful with their finances otherwise all the money they got will just be wipe out in just a couple of years.

Yeah, many boxers are already bankrupt because of their own fault they are living a one day millionaire and don't even think about their future. Well, Manny Pacquaio already owns a lot of business here in my place, so I think he can survive in the long run even if he retires from boxing and of course he's a politician.

Anyway, the fight will push through for sure but I don't believe on this kind of fight anymore because I know there's a big money behind this fight so its hard to choose who will win on this fight because even if you are on the right side, if there's a big money involve you can still be lose.

I am thinking this fight again is all about money and fame, Remember the fight between Manny and May Weather, The bets all around are higher than the price of the winner. But still its entertaining and proud to watch your countrymen fight for your country.

I don't know why people are still saying that this is just about the money.

Every time there are a bout like this, people tends to say that money is the reason, well, it is included in their reason obviously since that is what they do for a living, to entertain people using their might to knockout their opponents. Manny Pacquiao is a title holder, it is obvious that he will be defending it and he is still a boxer, if he wsnt to defend his title, he will if he wants to challenge title holders he can.

I think Manny really did go to boxing to get out of poverty, so obviously it's about money for him. Do you think they fight because they want to prove to their opponents which one is the better? Maybe if you're just beginning in boxing, but if you become a veteran and you know the ins and out of boxing world then definitely everyone is here for the money and not to prove which one is the better, imho.

You are right every fight is all about money its business indeed like any other popular games like nba, football etc, We are always entertained when pacman is on the ring because he fought with a heart unlike mayweather fought like a runner lol this match between manny and broner will be more entertaining in my view than of mayweather I expect solid punches on both sides.

Boxing is a business so everyone is here for the money not just the boxers, but sports programming network as well. That's why we haven't seen superfights, the handlers are carefully handpicking the champions next opponent so that they can build them overtime and chase money fights instead of the belts.

Money is part of it. Business as usual. But this upcoming bout between these 2 boxers is not just all about money.

If does, there are lots of others boxers that team Pacquaio can pick which can gives create more "money".

He maybe want to prove that he still has the power and he can beat younger guys with good record.
This guy also has a good knockout ratio and it's gonna be an exciting fight but as a Pacman fan, I would love to see him winning this fight.
Regardless of the outcome, they still both make a ton of money.

The serious matter is when you do jump or step up on a new division which adjusting your own weight on specific requirement would really give some affect.

Definitely agree..

But honestly going down on a previous weight level is way more difficult than jumping on another division.

Another weird thing is the official weights written right now are 147 for Pacman vs 140 for Adrien, wouldn't that create a problem for Adrien to begin with ? Should he pick up some muscle to at least level the ground ?

140-147 is a Welterweight range so not a problem at all if that's the real weight once they step on ring. I mean, after weigh-in, their weight on the ring will now be different.

Well then, Broner used to fight on Welterweight division so adjusting will not be difficult to him, aside from he is just 29 years old.

About weight adjustments it wont really be a problem yet those are only few numbers to be patched up.The serious matter is when you do jump or step up on a new division
which adjusting your own weight on specific requirement would really give some affect. Being young is already an advantage but it wont work out as long
you're opponent is more experienced than you.

Yes, I would agree that Manny has no pressure whatsoever. The pressure should be on Broner side and proved that his big mouth can deliver. We all know that he really can't back up his trash talking and if he losses to a old Manny then he will simply disappear again in the limelight and his AB = About Billions slogan or tag line won't happened and the media will be having another field day ridiculing him.

Manny will entertained his fans and make this fight more enjoyable as the opponents have a big mouth and the pressure should be take from the person who loves to trash talk, Manny will be in a good position and more options to follow after this fight, its all about money when in terms of asking for rematch for floyd so this both fighters needs to entertain their fans to pressure the money to flow around and force mayweather to fight and accept any rematch from this two respective camp.

Saying he will entertain is just like saying that he is gonna dominate the fight.
I'd love to believe that manny will win because we cannot underestimate his opponent which is also a good fighter and younger than him.

..for what do they really fight for ? Not for the title for sure because if it was even at a risk Pacquaio wouldn't have gotten in to the ring, he is definitely so sure of himself that he will defend the WBA welterweight title that he looks at it like a 100% win.

Broner was one of the options for next match. Business will continue. Manny wants to fight no matter what's the stake is.

Or is there "something" that you might want to point out?

There is still a lot of time until the fight happens but this is nothing more than a warm up match for Pacquaio and that's it.

However, there are couple of stuff that boggles my mind, for what do they really fight for ? Not for the title for sure because if it was even at a risk Pacquaio wouldn't have gotten in to the ring, he is definitely so sure of himself that he will defend the WBA welterweight title that he looks at it like a 100% win.

Should he pick up some muscle to at least level the ground ? With all of those things pointing out to an easy and quick win for Pacman I still think this is boxing and even during a fixed match which this potentially is, you can get a bad punch and get knocked out.

Pacman is somewhat pressured with this fight with Broner as he has to show to the fight fans that he still has that quality to get that rematch with Floyd.

I disagree. There is no pressure on Manny in this fight. I reckon Nate Diaz can stand and fight good versus Adrien Broner hehehe.

Also, Manny can get a rematch versus Floyd anytime, if the money is right and if the promoters think that it's the right time to scam the fans again hehe.

No pressure but he needs to win this in order for the fans to push a rematch against Mayweather.
Their last fight was an easy win by Mayweather as it was decided via unanimous decision and then Manny had his excused about shoulder injury.
If he is healthy and can win this fight, this will bring the attention of the fans in their rematch, as usual, Mayweather will get a big share in revenue but a $100 million is gonna be Manny's minimum earning, that's a big money in one night of fight.

Manny Pacquaio just turned 40 yesterday and obviously, no practice, no bouts, no roadworks, no sparrings etc. Yes it's a 2 day break to somehow rest his body.

And as expected, his birthday raffled cars, motorcycles and appliances. And of course the usual giving of grocery items. This was done in his town.

He will be expected to get back in sparring sessions today. No time to waste now as his fight against Broner is just a month away.

He is definitely pushing the limits to his own body. Might as well his mind also. It's just scary to think what could happen. Well, anyway, I just saw an article regarding about that and they said that he is still fast and not getting tired. Maybe he is getting into his condition but it's not the same as before, that's for sure. And I saw that he has no time to waste because it's literally game time for them.

Maybe his generosity would somehow get him pumped up by all the people who are supporting him. We will see what his training can result in the upcoming fight.

As much as I love to see Manny fight, he needs to consider the retire already, he has won as much money as is possible, he has great reputation, he has all the possible championships that he could ever want, so there is nothing more for him to win in boxing, I suppose that is very hard for someone to abandon something that they love but despite his best efforts he is getting older and it doesn't matter how good you are you cannot beat old age.

So the time has come in which he needs to seriously consider to retire, boxing is a very dangerous sport in which a single blow can be enough to change or even end a life.

Yes indeed it's a dangerous sports but we should consider the passion in which Manny has to boxing. I don't think Manny is fighting in the ring just for money alone, and I think he has other agenda. The sports he love just can't be retired so easily especially if it's the one that brings out the best in you.

Maybe until he has finally realized that it's time to hang up the cape until he still can. I agree he still has an excellent reputation known around the world as the Filipino Boxer. It's the letting go of the sport maybe makes it really harder. I agree that he might be in danger in a way just because of the blows to the head that could incur more injuries and he might not be coming back anymore. I think he needs to think far ahead of his future and what he is going to do.

Every person probably would arrive at some point in their lives that it's one last game or continue to play and be in danger, if we are talking about people in sports. I guess we could also consider those who are really old and still are working. It just depends on the person I think.

He will not consider the retirement because he is still winning, now he wants a better fight and if he will win this game then people will think that he is back again. Boxing is a big business and Manny although started from scratch has transform itself to a real successful man and he is very smart to continue to harvest the money while he can, retirement will only come when he is convince that he is aging and can't win fight anymore.

Yes, and we know that a lot of sports figure that's know that they're aging unless they lost a fight in which they show signs of not throwing punches as they used to be, for example Manny's fight with ODLH. We see Oscar beaten to the punch and he even can't hit Manny that time. So until we see Manny getting slow and lost badly, he will still continue to fight I reckon.
