    Canelo isn't passive dummy did you see the way he lit up angulo? Pbf shuts guys down and makes them look average a good defense will always beat a good offense that's what troll s like you who know nothing about the sport fail to realize. All these flurries you're talking about Pac wouldn't be doing that against pbf abd if you don't understand that you need to learn the sport before saying it. Pbf would limit pacs offense and outbox him to a ud win.

    Pac's style is not that hard of an adjustment for Mayweather. When you talk about needing a rematch to adjust then you have to be talking about the average fighter, not Mayweather. Mayweather will make that adjustment before the end of the first round. Pac has never fought a fighter with the speed,accuracy and versatility of Mayweather. The question is not weather Mayweather can adjust but rather can Pac adjust. Here's the rub, Pac would have to readjust every round. He don't have it in him. He's not gifted like that.

    Floyd's own dad scored it for ODLH. Of course you're gonna think the fight wasn't close, the fight was a lot closer than *****s make out. I thought ODLH took 4 rounds.

    Face it, everyone is acting like its a foregone conclusion that PBF shuts Pac out, the other greatest fighter of his generation. However everytime he's fought an elite opponent not even on the level of Manny, he's looked more vulnerable. ODLH, Castillo, Judah, Cotto - coincidence? The best fighters he shut out were JMM who stylistically is made for Floyd, just look at Bradley-JMM, JMM-Casamayor, JMM-MAB, basically JMM hates counterpunchers and he fought just about the best counterpuncher , possibly ever. Canelo maybe elite too but time will tell.

    Not gifted like that yet managed to win titles in 8 weight divisions and beaten every single man he's face past 122. C'mon, please. That's not down to pure talent alone.

    Not all champions held 8 belts in different weight divisions. Thats what the guy probably meant.

    The way to do it, I dont know if there is a way to measure this, but one way to do it is really by total bone mass. I would think since Manny is definitely the smaller man, he would have less total bone mass than Floyd, although floyd's lack of a spine may surprisingly make his total bone mass come in lower

    Who gives a fcuck? Pbf and his dad hated each other back then. With that said anyone who scored that fight for Oscar can't be taken seriously.

    He miggt not shut Pac out but the fight wouldn't be close. Pac gets hit too much and fights in spurts now.

    Well, floyd has made a lot of money, at least. balls or no balls. the *****s can always sit back and think about floyd sitting in his mansion and feel good about that I guess. weird that, but if it gets you through the day I guess its ok
