    The only reason I hope this fight ever happens is to watch Manny be absolutely humiliated and all his idiotic *******s can commit suicide. Then we can hear all the "Manny was shot" excuses for the absolute ass kicking he would take in the ring. Mayweather would retire that man, seriously.

    "Marquez was too small for Floyd." was another good one I heard from *******s -- Note to idiots: Marquez and Pacquiao are the same ****ing size. Mayweather would have all the physical advantages over Manny, along with much superior boxing skills. Anybody who gave Manny a shot is a ****ing idiot. Another hyped up "Mayweather killer."

    The thing is Pac is the only fighter that matches Floyd for speed and he has power, also as someone stated Mayweather does not counter like Marquez does

    Not even close. Total absolute humiliation. I respectfully disagree. Manny would not only lose, but would look stupid in the process.

    Money would put Manny into retirement from the ass kicking he would receive. Arum knows this, and that's why it never happened.

    LOL! nail on the head material here! NO MATTER who Floyd fights, excuses will rain down even before the fight starts. It'll be no different with Manny.

    2009 Pac would have given Floyd problems. Why do you think Floyd avoided him?

    These days yes.

    But even before Pacquaio's losses I thought maybe PAC could AT ABSOLUTE BEST, take Floyd to a close decision in losing, based mainly off of activity.

    Sure I think the Pac that isn't currently on a losing streak would've had his moments against Floyd, but not enough to ever think he would've won.

    Still to this day I would find a Pac vs Floyd fight interesting (as long as Pac looks impressive vs Rios), and would watch, but would watch almost 99% sure Pac would lose, just as I would've expected years ago.

    Floyd avoided Manny because he was an aggressive southpaw and he had doubts. The Manny is shot excuse is lame though. He got caught with one punch.

    Mayweather made sure no one would find out.

    And hate it or love it, that will forever be part of Floyd's legacy.
