“I’ll finish him off,” these were the strong words of Manny PacquiaoFloyd Mayweather after Mayweather defeated Shane Mosley last May 1st in Las Vegas. Pacquiao saw on television Shane Mosley’s right punch that staggered and almost knockdown Mayweather in the second round.

What surprised the pound-for-pound king was the failure of Mosley to follow it up, allowing Mayweather to recover and eventually dominate him the rest of the 12-round battle. I think Mosley is already exhausted after throwing so many punches and he unable to finish Mayweather.

Pacquiao said “If I can hit Mayweather like that, I will finish him off. I will attack until Mayweather is knockout.” Well if that really happens then the undefeated record of Mayweather is also knockout. THis is everybody want to see the Mayweather vs Pacquiao match.

Pacquiao, the pound-for-pound king, has the figures to support his claim. Meanwhile, the Mayweather-Mosley tussle fell short of the pay-per-view expectations of its promoters. According to Kevin Iole of Yahoo.com, initial reports indicate that the fight generated 1.1-1.2 million buys, way off to the original projections of from 1.5-4 million buys. I think some of the fans didn't watch the fight because they were already knew whose going to win on that fight, or maybe they're are not interested anymore and they want to see Mayweather vs Pacquiao fight. I know that Mayweather vs Pacquiao will definitely create a new record for PPV buys if they face each other.
