Andy Murray tips American to win defeat

British tennis star and huge boxing fan Andy Murray has tipped Floyd Mayweather to come out tops against Manny Pacquiao.

Murray says American Mayweather has two things in his favour- his home support and his ability to use his superb defence to build up points if it goes the distance.

“That’s his hometown,” Murray said of the Las Vegas in a quote gotten from AFP.

“He’s spoken a little bit about how much he means to the economy of the city.

“If it goes to the scorecards, I would think it would be tough for Pacquiao to win," Murray revealed.

Murray is not the only celebrity that has weighed in on the May 2 fight.
