    In my opinion Pacquiao's only chance is a toe to toe battle at midrange Pacquiao will knock Floyd out. At close range Pacquiao will be ineffective and at long range the lead right from Floyd will landing a lot.

    I dont know about a knockout, if he was gonna get Floyd out, it would have to be a TKO from sustained damage, or Floyd not defending himself. Floyd's chin is too solid for a one punch KO. He's taking shots from bigger punchers than Pac.

    Toe to Toe is not punch for punch. People confuse that.

    Toe to toe is different to a fighter operating in his OWN pocket

    Going toe to toe with pacquaio and you'll get your face busted up

    Having a thinking match with mayweather and you'll get picked apart

    it's all wrong for Floyd to engage a volume puncher like Pac ... he might as well counter and potshot his way to a decision just like he always does.

    ... but Pac is more accurate than Maidana it will be hard for him to dominate Pac by points

    Floyd fights off the ropes better than anybody in the sport.

    It doesn't get more toe to toe than that.

    That fight is either going to go one of two ways.

    Pac being dominated or Floyd being overwhelmed. I dont think that theres a middle in that fight. It'll be one of two.

    I just dont know how Pac would deal with Floyd's speed/Accuracy/length.

    It would be the first time that Pac faced someone just as face/athletic, but longer and smarter. It would be nice to see.

    I could see Floyd knocking Pac out too.

    Pac's chin is suspect to me right now.

    Bradley isnt a big puncher at all, and he damn sure doesnt hit harder than Floyd.

    Pac got rocked here, and damn near flew off the ground. Floyd would land those right hands often and harder and sharper.

    thats terribly bias. He won all 3. Maidana and Cotto were CLEAR wins.

    Castillo is debateable.

    The variable that you're missing is that they all BULLIED him.

    Castillo came in at 147 to Floyds 135 and he has a torn rotator cuff

    Cotto came in 165 to Floyds 150.

    Maidana 165 to Floyd's 148.

    Floyd VS Pac they would both be 150. He wouldnt get bullied.

    He'll make it a tough fight for himself by doing that. Mayweather can outbox Pac by using reach foot work and timing. It would be wise for him to fight him accordingly.
