Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather should give the public what they want - AND pocket at least $300m between them by boxing in the richest fight in history
The initial reaction when Manny Pacquiao announced that he will quit the ring in 2016 was to despair that the fight against Floyd Mayweather which the world has been waiting an eternity to see had been scuppered once and for all.
The reverse may be the case. Not least because the Pac-Man was actually deferring his retirement date.
The last time I discussed the matter with Pacquiao he talked of going into full-time Philippines politics next year.

Bowing out: Pacquiao has deferred his retirement to 2016, raising possibility of a fight with Mayweather
Now speculation is on the rise in the US that Floyd Mayweather may be preparing the ground for a spectacular climax to both his and the Pac-Man’s career.
First, as he agreed to his September 13 rematch with Marcos Maidana, Mayweather went public with a teaser for us to expect a surprise announcement for his ensuing fight, scheduled for next May.
Since Amir Khan is hoping that will be when he gets his overdue shot at the Money man, nobody got over-excited.
But an alternative scenario has arisen from the fall-out following a huge promotional upheaval in American boxing.
Golden Boy Oscar De La Hoya, after splitting with long-time partner Richard Schaefer, has brokered a peace with Bob Arum’s Top Rank outfit which should lead to big fights between boxers in each of those stables. Read full Story >>>

My nose is a little bruised and bent but only I can tell how bad it is,” Amir Khan says as he smiles ruefully when reminded that nine years ago this summer he made his debut as a professional boxer. Khan tweaks his fighter’s nose gently as if he cannot believe how much he has endured since joining the paid ranks of this battered old business as an Olympic silver medallist and teenage sensation in July 2005.
“So much has happened since then,” he says. “I’ve come back from losses and won world titles. I’ve boxed in the UK and America, won fight of the year and moved up three weight classes. I’ve achieved so much and I’m still only 27. But I feel fresh, which is amazing when you think of all the hard fights and hard training. I’ve been boxing since I was eight and that’s a long time to take punches day after day.”
Khan is engaging and eloquent and, like most boxers, he prefers a genuine conversation to a conventional question-and-answer routine. Being hit in the face also instils a rare candour in fighters like Khan. “I’m in a sport where one punch can change your life,” he says intently at his gym in Bolton. “I understand why my mum and my wife can’t bear to watch me fight. There’s a lot of blood, a lot of pain. I’m a fighter but I find it very hard to watch my brother [Haroon – an unbeaten super-flyweight with a professional record of 5-0] because there’s nothing you can do to help him. It must be hell for my mum.” Read full Story>>>

Bernard Hopkins vs. Sergey Kovalev on November 8th, possibly in Atlanta City or NY
Now that Kovalev’s light work is out of the way, his unification bout against the 49-year-old Hopkins will be taking place on HBO on November 8th, either in Atlantic City, New Jersey at the Boardwalk Hall, or at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, according to Dan Rafael.
Hopkins signed the contract for the fight last Friday and the fight is a done deal. The only thing that needs to be determined is the venue.
“He [Hopkins] can teach me because he is very experienced,” Kovalev said to Dan Rafael of ESPN.com. “I am not scared to fight him, even to lose to him. He’s an ‘Alien.’ But I am the ‘Krusher,’ and I will send him to mars.”
You have to see this as being a potentially difficult one for Hopkins, because even if he wins, he’s probably going to need to go the full 12 round distance to get the victory. Hopkins hasn’t knocked out an opponent since he stopped Oscar De La Hoya in the 9th round in their fight in 2004. De La Hoya was moving up in weight to face the bigger Hopkins at middleweight, and he didn’t have the size to fight at a high level in that weight class.
Kovalev is a natural light heavyweight and a lot younger and stronger than Hopkins. Even if Hopkins beats Kovalev, he’s going to need to take 12 rounds of heavy shots from him. As good as Hopkins’ defense is, he’s not going to be able to make Kovalev miss for 12 rounds. He’s going to get hit with a lot of solid blows to the head and body.
No one has ever gone the full 12 round distance with Kovalev during his career, and it’s going to be asking a lot of the nearly 50-year-old Hopkins to withstand 12 punishing rounds to beat Kovalev by a decision. This isn’t Kelly Pavlik. Kovalev is a better version of Pavlik with more close range power. Pavlik was a long range puncher and didn’t have an inside game like Kovalev.
You’ve got to give Hopkins a lot of credit for taking this fight, because he’s not fought a good fighter since his loss to Chad Dawson in 2012. He’s won his last three fights against Karo Murat, Beibut Shumenov and Tavoris Cloud, but those are flawed fighters that aren’t anywhere near the same talent level that Kovalev has.
