    Manny is already not in his prime. Pacquiao's style is extremely athletic and boxers with that style don't last nearly as long. Defensive counter punchers generally improve with age, so long as their bodies hold up and Floyd's has, well enough. The ship of Floyd fighting a prime Pacquiao sailed years ago, but it would still be an interesting fight and a good win for Floyd, who I think would win 8 out of 10 fights with this Pacquaio.

    No. They are very close in weight. Pacquiao may even be a pound or two heavier on fight night. Floyd has a pretty good reach advantage on him though.

    No. The fact that Manny is broke and Bob is the most likely culprit is ******ed. You fans just don't want to see Manny fully exposed. Why would Manny or anyone want to see Manny stay with Bob after all the money that was taken from him. You're all a bunch of pussies like I said who don't want to deal with the truth that Manny gets exposed as soon as he leaves Bob.

    Mayweather is far more athletic and coordinated than Pacman.

    Manny can't even keep both feet on the ground when he throws his left.

    That's how size is usually measured.

    Lol... Drain La Hoya could barely move in the damn fight, and needed IVs to rehydrate. Yes, Pac looked impressive...good speed and pop at 147 (basically, his walk around weight). But, he was in there with a much more depleted (due to weight drain, age, etc) version of Oscar than Floyd moved up to 154 to face, 2 years before, in 10 ounce gloves, etc.

    Can't really fault Pac for Oscar not being able to lose the weight in an effective manner. But, it is what it is. Because of this, Floyd's win against Oscar was better, IMO.

    Floyd could have stayed at 140 too.

    It proves he's not very coordinated.

    Who else in boxing can't keep both on the floor in boxing besides Manny.?

    I can't think of anybody that goofy.

    Manny chooses to throw the way he does. If anything it takes more coordination to throw the way Manny does. Especially to throw as well as Manny does. That left hand has beat the **** out of a lot of people.

    Pac would have likely cleaned out 140. But, Marquez would've eventually moved up too...and, I presume, slowed the momentum to a screeching halt.
