    Pacmans style wuld be tailor-made for Mayweather...@ 147 I think Floyd easily beats Pac, maybe even stops him late

    floyd just waiting for pac to slow down... it's obvious as ****!!!

    he's just buying time. We all know the fight is gonna happen. Pac suffers more with age than floyd. Pac already is showing sign of slowing down... it's just a matter of time before scum floyd fights him.

    How much since does that make. Mayweather waiting for Pac to slow down when that means he's getting older and slowing himself smh

    Pacquiao has little chance. A punchers chance. That's all. Mayweather would whip Pacquiao. Not a fan of Mayweather the man, but the guy can fight.

    *****s in denial. Face it, a past it plodder in Cotto touched up Floyd. Now imagine someone with more snap, pop, and footspeed (and not to mention gastank) would do to him....Now you could kinda see why Twitter Queen is so hesitant to get this fight going.

    No ****ing way...Manny isn't big enough, strong enough, not as good defenively, and nowhere near good enough inside to do what Cotto did. Cotto did a good job but was able to give Floyd some trouble because he was big and strong enough to push him back against the ropes, and good enough inside to land some punches, Manyy does none of that. Also Manny's guard isn't as good as Cotto's and he would have eaten a lot of punches...Manny can't/won't beat Floyd, period.

    Makes plenty sense. Pac style isn't suited for as much longevity.

    He went against his trainers wishes and slugged it out, had Cotto badly hurt with the KO on the platter, he then clearly takes his foot off the gas and walks Cotto to the finish line, Floyd was toying all night, he needed rounds though

    To stick to the subject Manny won't be weighing 15-20 more than Floyd in the ring, Floyd would actually be the bigger man for once, if Manny was to try to swarm him at 147 he would get decapitated

    Mayweather almost dropped Cotto in the last round. Floyd retained his speed while wearing 10 oz gloves and added more power to his arsenal. Just proves how great he is when people get excited just because he bled from his nose. The only time I have ever seen Floyd in trouble is when Mosley landed that right handed and wobbled Floyd for a little bit. Floyd deserves everything he's worked for. However, he has no business involving ****** Beiber in the sport of boxing.

    I think Cotto should fight 2-3 more times and call it quits. He had a great career and should enjoy his earnings with his family and his fat pal. He's too great of a guy to take more physical damage considering the fact that Margarito likely had loaded gloves.

    Pacquiao will probably yield to Floyd's demands someway or another. He will most likely lose a close fight against Floyd, be content that he gave the fans what they wanted and be happy with his money. I really don't see the fire in his eyes anymore and he hasn't improved much since Cotto. The most technical I've seen Pac is against a weight-drained De La Hoya. I really don't see him effective against Floyd with his significant reach disadvantage. Floyd will tag Pac from distance and step back waiting for Pac to counter with a flurry, which will cause him to be off-balance and be susceptible to counters. It's sad, but true. As much as I want to root for the underdog, it's hard to believe in Pac when the guy is caught up in politics and what-not. As soon as he started making Roach fly to Baguio to train, I knew Pac's hunger for the game peaked. Plus, Roach's Parkinson's seems to be taking its toll, and sadly, he is not the same trainer who once could prepare a flawless gameplan for his fighters.

    I give Manny more of a chance than most, but not so much because of this fight. This fight showed us a few things about Floyd Pac can work with, but Manny is not Miguel, in the same way Floyd is not Juan Manuel.

    Mayweather is fast enough to keep up with Pac, but he can push Pac around as well and out think him. Mayweather will fall in with his over hand right then tie Pac up then look to bully him while getting hits off with his hand speed.

    The one thing a lot of Mayweather haters were banking on was that Mayweather was soft and didn't have a warrior spirit and couldn't trade or slug it out. Now that is out the window.

    The one variable you guys fail to realize is that Mayweather fought & beat Cotto at his own game.

    He doesn't have to give Pacquiao that same chance. He can just box ALL night long.

    Guys seem to forget that Floyd was toying with Cotto and the reason he got tagged was due to Floyd taking more risks and standing in front of Cotto rather than move around in circles against him
