Fans are worried about the proposed fight March 13 date of Pacquiao vs Mayweather.
Business wise, Arum said it is the best date for the fight to happen. Reasons are first, it won't interfere Pacquiao's political program (would it?) and two, Mayweather prefers it than a more politically distracted Pacquiao on May 1.
The world is claiming for this fight but since Manny Pacquiao has already filed his candidacy, it would perhaps delay the fight and pave way for tune-up fights, which people don't want to watch.
Some fans say, the March 13 fight would be a fool's decision.
I don't think it should a big worry. IF it's with Mayweather.
Before, boxers fight a lot in a year as often as once or twice a month for 15 rounds. I'm not saying nobody got hurt and damaged but if to compare it with today's advance facilities, it should not be much of a worry -- much more because it's with Mayweather.
It's not that Mayweather doesn't have power. He does because some of his punches can't be seen (like the quick left hook that Marquez received). Mayweather is a "safety-first" fighter and his intention to whoop asses is only for hyping fights.
Arum is a master of this business and he know it's the only way they can get Mayweather (tho Manny doesn't need to chase him). It's not the date. Everything is business of this MOST ANTICIPATED BOXING MATCH ... but we can't let Mayweather get the excuse because of schedules (because this is exactly the excuse he wants).
I may sound very selfish but I do want to shut the mouth of Mayweather and I know Pacquiao can. It's actually his running for congress that is untimely. If Manny then loses, it would be the political distractions that would be blamed for sure.
It's not that I don't trust Manny can do outstanding social welfare for his province, it's just the politics that I detest much. It's like you think you can get away with the foolishness that surrounds it. You can't. Politics is just like riding a motorcycle: no matter how careful you are if it's the driver of a truck who is not careful and hit you ... you will mostly be crushed to death.
