    If he beats Pacquiao? Pacquiao may be past his prime, but he's still an elite fighter and in the top 5 P4P.

    It'd be his best win.

    I think either fighter could count it as their best win. It's amazing that this fight holds as much significance as it does considering these guys are 38 and 36 years old.

    Whoever wins, it's the best win on their record.

    If Floyd is able to dominate Pac, it's because Pac is shot and that should be factored in when assessing the victory. Floyd's fault for ducking 5 years.

    Stop with the mild undercutting of a possible win.

    Mayweather is going to be 38 himself by the time the fight comes around and hardly looked stellar against Maidana.

    Whoever wins deserves massive credit for winning the biggest fight of a generation

    Yet Pac is the younger fighter and hasn't been boxing as long as Floyd.

    His best win, which like his other best wins, is a win against an over the hill great fighter. Similar to SRR over Armstrong.

    Pacquiao's offensive style and penchant for going to war is not conducive to longevity.

    2 years ago, at the end of his creer, Pacquiao suffered one of the most brutal KOs in the history of the sport.

    Y'all crazy if you don't think Pac is shot.

    :hi:

    I still pick a shot Pac to beat Floyd, for the record.

    :deal

    No you're crazy for thinking Pac is shot

    Do you even know what shot means? :nut
