ESPN: Most of Public Thinks Manny Pacquiao vs. Floyd Mayweather Won't Happen
According to a new poll from ESPN SportsNation,ย 60 percent of people feel Manny Pacquiao vs.ย Floyd Mayweather will never happen.
The exact question was: "Will Manny Pacquiao Ever Fight Floyd Mayweather?"ย Currently, out of the 700 people who voted, 60ย percentย voted "no" and 40ย percentย voted "yes."
The next question was: "Who Would Be the Best Match Up For Manny Pacquiao?"
Currently, here are the votes as they stand, out of 1,279 votes:
Juan Manuel Marquez: 39ย percent
Shane Mosley: 35ย percent
Andre Berto: 26ย percent
Just as much of the true fight fans have been saying they would much rather see a rubber match with Marquez than a fight with the now over-the-hill Mosley.
Then the question was: "Who Will Manny Pacquiao End Up Fighting On May 7?"
Currently, here are the votes as they stand, out of 620 votes:
Shane Mosley: 58ย percent
Juan Manuel Marquez: 20ย percent
Andre Berto: 10ย percent
Someone Else: 17ย percent
It is interesting to see that 17ย percentย of the people believe Manny will fight someone else rather than these three fighters and even more believe this than a fight with Berto.
When asked: "How Would A Manny Pacquiao-Floyd Mayweather Fight End?"
Currently, here are the votes as they stand out, of 541 votes:
Believe Pacquiao will knock out Mayweather:ย 33ย percentย
Believe Pacquiao will win a decision:ย 28ย percentย
Believe Mayweather will win a decision:ย 28ย percentย
Believe Mayweather will knock out Pacquiao: eightย percent ย ย
Believe it will end in a draw: threeย percent ย ย
When asked: "Who Will History Remember As the Better Fighter?"
Currently here are the votes as they stand, out of 636 votes:
Pacquiao:ย 75 percent
Mayweather:ย 25ย percent
What does this say about the general public? It may imply that they are frustrated and have given up on the biggest fight of our lifetime.
It may also indicate that right now Pacquiao is the more popular fan-friendly fighter between him and Mayweather, probably mostly due to Floyd's inactivity.
More importantly, this poll proves to us that we would much rather see a rubber match with Juan Manuel Marquez than a fight with Mosley or Berto.
So Bob Arum, Oscar De La Hoya, Juan Manuel Marquez and Manny Pacquiao: Let's give the fight fans what they really want for May 7th.
