    "Floyd Mayweather knows when to pick his opponents. He knows when the right time is...my question is...why did it get made now...Floyd sees something in Manny that he can capitalize on...I'm going with Floyd in winning a relatively dull fight,"

    Oscar asks why did it get made now?

    Sounds like someone is afraid Mayweather is going to school Pac..

    I hope not, but if it happens it looks like you already have your excuse in place.

    I understand that, but will what Oscar said become truth to you if Mayweather schools Pac?

    I thought it was pretty clear that both Mayweather and Pac have slowed a bit, didn't Roach say the same about Floyd basically?

    So? He fought Floyd because he was p4p#1 and wanted to recapture that title late in his career albeit being 5-7 years past his prime. Give the man credit. He didn't duck anyone. Every one got on him for taking Pac over Marg, meanwhile marg was a bum and Pac was a wrecking ball. And went up to face the bigger Hopkins and Sturm. That would be like Floyd fighting GGG now, but we know floyd would NEVER do that.:lol:

    No way, Floyd has slowed down more. How in the world could a slow, plodding fighter like Maidana almost beat him? :patsch
