    Floyd would and will spank Pac should they finally get it on.

    He would walk him onto the right hand all night long.

    Not really true that Castillo laid the blueprint as he couldn't find the same success in the second fight. Floyd made adjustments and maintained distance. I assume at this point it wouldn't take Floyd an entire fight to figure that out. There is no blueprint.

    What 8 rounds did he win? Floyd won the first 5 rounds clearly. What is your score card? Bet you don't have one.

    Floyd would adapt at anything pac would bring. The Castillo days are long gone. But don't quit. Its with dummies like you that the PPV record will be beat.

    you are exactly right, sustained high quality pressure is how you beat mayweather. freddie roach knows this. mayweather acknowledged what a great game plan roach came up with against him in the de la hoya fight.

    canelo fought like a ******, no pressure at all, guy tried to outbox a wizard.

    Most people who say "Castillo won" didnt even see the fight. I scored that fight 116-112 for Floyd as an 8 year old kid. I rewatched it again 2 weeks ago and scored it 117-111.

    Floyd won most of the rounds in that fight, outside of the last few. He even gave him a rematch and won clearly in that fight.

    Yeah that would be a good start I guess but unfortunately Manny doesn't have a jab, can't fight in the inside nor cut off the ring so WTF we all talking about really?

    Mayweather has shown that he has an underrated inside game.
    Against Hatton, why Ricky did finally catch up to him - Floyd killed him inside.
    If a fighter does apply pressure and catch up to Mayweather, then Floyd can simply take them inside and if the other fighter can't fight inside - they'll be exposed badly.

    I think constant pressure, a good jab to keep forcing Mayweather into his defensive shell - and then staying in range to flurry him, but not too close so he takes you inside. Not too far away for him not to get out of his shell... If he gets out of his shell, jab him back into his shell, then flurry him again.

    Really? Pacquiao has gone the distance in 7 out of his 9 welterweight bouts. The two that did'nt make the distance were stopped on accumaltive damage to DLH and then Cotto.
    You really believe that gives him a punchers chance?
    You reallly think Pacquiao is a puncher at Welter? :huh
