    Very interesting vid. It definitely suggests manny will have his hands full with a dynamic and elusive ring general like Floyd. First few rounds (prior to a Floyd adjustment) will be key to manny having any success and possibly winning. Might be a snoozer Floyd US but I can't wait to see it regardless.

    first 4 rounds are KEY for Pacquiao success. If he can land consistently and land enough punches to make Floyd hesitant about firing back while being punched, then it may snowball into a decision win.

    Mayweather by a 116-112 or 115-113 decision but since he's Mayweather, many will find a way to be emotionally blinded and score it the opposite in favor of Pacquiao and then ***** and ***** endlessly about it until a rematch is signed where they then downplay their obviously bogus recollection of the first bout in an effort to downplay the potential significance of Floyd winning again.

    If it sounds familiar, it's because it is.

    I do ultimately expect a close fight.

    Pacquiao will have his moments but I feel he will get carless,reckless and run into Mayweather with he's hands down like he did with Marquez and get caught with something big Mayweather wins this by tko late or ud.. As much A's I want Mayweather to lose Pacquiao is NOT the fighter to get it done, not at this point of his career.

    same way I voted for chris aligeri to beat pac I want loads of votes for Floyd and if that means me placing a mere vote for him so that after pac beats him I can look back at this poll and enjoy it that much better its all for my own satisfaction.

    I change my prediction back to Floyd. I'm too scared to bet against him because he's just so good. He's never failed in adjusting to an opponent, so I have no reason to believe he would now.

    That's one of the reasons behind me placing that vote:hey

    and also to enjoy looking at the poll and take the pressure away from the fighter I want to win:blurp

    Yeah, but that was Rios, Algieri, and Bradley. You'd have no reason to think Pacquiao would lose to them.

    This is the #1 P4P fighter in the world.

    the way I voted for rios,bradley and aligeri I am just doing the same for mayweather I have no reason to believe pac would lose by me doing this I also pile more pressure on the coward and once pac beats him up it will be even a greater win :yep
