Maidana proved how downhill Mayweather has gone of recent. Fair play, Maidana did destroy Adrien Broner, but if you watch the Amir Khan v Maidana fight, you'll see that Khan was always in control, a lot more than what Mayweather was against him. Mayweather doesn't look the best anymore.

I don't think it's fair to say this fight will favour Mayweather now they've aged. Mayweather has slowed just as much as Manny.

Still want Manny to win though.

Didn't look in control in the 10th!!

Manny lying spark out on the canvas against Marquez and losing on points to Bradley before that and not KO'ing anyone since Cotto and Hatton in 2009

Pacquiao didn't lose to Bradley, worst scoring decision ever. Marquez gets a lucky punch in after 42 rounds of boxing. If you think that losing makes you not the best then look at Ali, Robinson, Armstrongs etc records. He's an 8 division world champion. Battered all before him. Mayweather unbeaten and 5 division world champion. They are the best of their era. And they fight in just over a weeks time, if you don't watch it you're not a boxing fan.

It's a fight past its time no matter what the hype says , like seeing Ali v Frazier 4 in 1980

Did you dream a 4th Frazier vs Ali fight? Ali fought Holmes in 1980.

Manny and Floyd are hardly both past it, both are world champions and Floyd is still undefeated and ring pound for pound best boxer in the world.

Both past their best but I think Mayweather will win on points but both would easily beat that horrible little man from Bolton and possibly force him to retire but as a very rich man.

I think that Amir Khan is boxing gold. I absolutely love watching his fights, he will genuinely fight anyone. He's pure entertainment in the ring. He either gets sparked out cold or knocks out his opponent. Whether you like him or not, i'd always tune in to his fights.

He has not knocked anyone out since 2011! Can't stand the man, ducked the fight with Brook.

Just watched the weigh in, Manny only 1 pound lighter at 145
At the face off after he said thank you to Mayweather, not sure what to make of that.
