    First of all, we have no factual basis for saying that Pac cheated, all we have is speculation. Second, Floyd wouldn't be in Cotto's position. The Pac who beat Cotto, juiced or not, would likely lose to May because the style, which is defensive boxer, is all wrong for Pac, and you can't say that about Cotto, who is at his best when he is a pressure fighter.

    Pac would likely outpoint Floyd in a somewhat similar fashion to what Calzaghe did to Hopkins.

    I seriously don't see that. Pac is just not a points kinda guy.

    Pac has only lost 1 round on all 3 judges' scorecards in his last 7 fights.

    That's 1 round out of a scheduled 84

    Not a points kinda of guy?

    No, I'm not saying that he doesn't win on points, it's that he doesn't strike me as the kind of fighter who focuses on winning on points. That's just not the way he fights, really. OTOH, May fights his fights like a fencer with gloves (to borrow a phrase from another poster here). He looks for openings to score and he scores, he doesn't look for a KO as much as he looks to beat you by a wide margin. That's the way he fights, as opposed to Pac who fights like he wants to win by hurting you more than you hurt him, which is why I don't think Pac would beat him that way if he tried to play that game.

    Coming from a guy that has cotto and clottey on his avatar. You dont come off a desperate pac fan

    by the way are you arguing that Pacs defence is as good as floyds?

    unless your six years old its pretty obvious who is better at what!

    pac better offensively and floyd defensively. you understand this ok?

    It's true that despite the fact that Pac almost never drops a round anymore, he doesn't focus on winning on points and always wants to go for the kill.

    I wouldn't be surprised to see Maywaether at some point have to make a decision between surviving on his amazing defense and losing on points or trying to win the fight and risking a stoppage loss.

    Thing is, Pac leaves so many openings through the risks he takes that I doubt it would be hard for Floyd to score hits one after another. I could see Pac hurting Floyd more than once throughout a fight and even marking the man up but still losing by UD. Really, the more I think about their styles the more I believe that it'll come down to a decision, which Floyd should win by a wide margin simply by outboxing.
