#MAY-PAC Big Event FIGHT OF THE YEAR LIVE

Floyd Mayweather vs Manny Pacquiao - all the latest news and reaction from the weigh-in at MGM Grand, Las Vegas, on Friday, May 1, 2015, 11pm BST

Is what everyone would call his undefeated record if he did not fight manny. Is just really surprises me it took Floyd so many years to get the judges in his pocket. Now that he’s been assured he won’t lose a decision he’s finally ready to fight. The fight will go the distance and even though the majority of people watching thought Manny won the judges will give to Mayweather. YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST!

I have to say, I was a tiny bit cynical about that beforehand but my God what an atmosphere! Seeing as we were just watching two blokes weigh themselves. I don't get that reaction when I do that in our bathroom, I'll tell you what. More sighing, really. But the scenes were just electric. I suppose lots of people were hoping that there would be a bust-up, but both men handled themselves like the present-day sporting legends that they are. The winner of this will be able to call himself a genuine all-time great. I, for one, cannot wait to see who it is. So please join us tomorrow when, finally, Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao GET IT ON! Cheers.

That was the most amazing atmosphere I've experienced here. Five and a half years of frustration finally giving us all chills. Even Mayweather looked a little hurt that he had to play second fiddle in the popularity contest. Manny milked it. But it won't make a jot of difference once the first bell tolls.. Been a long, long two weeks for me covering this night and day in the USA. But I can't wait...

I take every fighter serious. That is why I am 47-0. I only got one more fight left, I have had a great career. I have been swimming in this camp, I have been chopping trees. Earlier in my career I had a lot more knockouts. After 30 years of fighting, there is a lot of wear and tear on my hands. Manny is a future hall of famer just like myself. We will see how everything goes.

When he isn't talking about money, Floyd actually comes over as a decent and thoughtful interview.

Manny confirms: "I said thank you, yes. For making the fight happen. The fans deserve it. I have been fighting bigger guys. It doesn't matter to me. Tomorrow, the Lord is always with me and He will deliver him into my hands. Either you are a fan of Mayweather or Manny Pacquiao, the fans deserve this fight."

Floyd: "I don't know what he said. My thing is that I have to focus on what we are doing tomorrow. I did not respond. I just have to listen to my father. Without my father I would not be here. I have dedicated myself to the sport of boxing for 20 years. I am ready to fight. Any predictions? Anyone who is watching, buy Pay Per View."

Pacquiao has already proven himself, at one time, to be the very best flyweight, featherweight, junior lightweight, and junior welterweight in the world. Mayweather, on the other hand, holds his crowns in the junior lightweight, lightweight, welterweight, and junior middleweight divisions.

This means that, for Mayweather, he has only his legacy on the line. Pacquiao, on the other hand, has a chance to make boxing history. If he wins, he will become the first man in the history of the sport to wear the crowns of five weight classes, a feat which may never be surpassed.
