Last week it was officially announced that finally Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao will fight on May 2, 2015.
The two best boxers of their time, in our time today, will decide who is the best in the ring.
I have always contended that this fight would happen because of the huge amount of money it will generate for all.
The fight isn’t the most anticipated in my era of boxing , though ; Joe Frazier vs. Muhammad Ali on March 8, 1971 was that. Two undefeated champions at the pinnacle of their careers for the “undisputed” heavyweight championship of the world.
However, boxing will get a big fight with Mayweather vs. Pacquiao. The build up will take us back 44 years to what it was like for Frazier and Ali, and like that fight … this fight is good for boxing in this generation!
