    Mercers KO of Morrison was the most brutal KO in boxing history IMO .

    Morrison was already completely out in that corner , and Mercer just continued to batter him with heavy powershots and showed absolutely no remorse .

    In the last 10 years. Floyd has a better resume than Pac.

    And if you wanna talk about "cherrypicking slow fighters".

    Who has Pacquiao been in with that has real hand speed? NO ONE. Bradley is has good speed, but nothing crazy. he's never been in with someone as fast or faster than him.

    Floyd's speed would trouble him. He has a hard time getting out of the way of Marquez and Bradley shots. You're telling me he wouldn't be right there for Floyd's laser right hand?

    The reason Pac would lose this fight is mainly because of his defense.

    Spotty Defense vs Elite Boxing Sniper= Bad News. He'd be there to be hit.

    Floyd would have Manny second guessing everything he does. He would make Manny fight his fight. Manny is an action guy not a thinker. Mayweather by UD.

    They needed mountains of smelling salts to wake him up, top 3 for sure.

    He was knocked senseless. He wasn't moving for 5 minutes.

    I think Pacquiao would have to take every single round that Mayweather is chilling out in. I actually had Alvarez winning a good few rounds because Mayweather just hung back and did nothing, despite being all round the much better fighter that night.

    Pacquiao's left straight would also have to be catching Mayweather. As much as we can all use other fights as an example, we aren't 100% sure if it would work or not. That punch would be pivotal. If he was able to connect with it, then Mayweather might get frustrated, especially because it's his major rival and he knows that he NEEDS to win.

    I genuinely thought pacquiao was dead, could t work out what had happened as from the broadcast angle you couldn't really see the punch land first time around. Looked like PAC had been shot from the crowd or something, not nice to see.

    In boxing terms, you would be the same size and fight in the same weight class. This is how "boxing defines divisions," by weight. Not by dimensions. Remember, we're talking about "boxing terminology."

    Stop being obtuse.

    Paul Williams was more brutal to me bc of the angle and the eyes wide shut he had going on there. But there are brutal Ko's every year.

    What it means is that you two would be in the same WEIGHT class if you boxed. Even if Floyd is bigger, its so small it wouldn't even matter.

    Floyd fighting Pac is not like Maravilla fighting Floyd, Canelo fighting Floyd. There is no weight between them.

    You're starting to look like a troll frank

    The only chance Pac has if that left connects then May would be in trouble then its whether Pac could capitalize were Mosley could not.

    I agree I never once said the difference is that big all I said was that Mayweather is bigger.
