Do you think we will see a significant difference in Mayweather's power?

    That's not a fact. Spouting unfounded accusations as fact should see the idiots writing this drivel banned.

    I've see both sets of fans now writing FACT at the end of opinions or out and out lies.

    I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.

    They(boxing_inbred not included since he didn't exist back then) used the "Pacquiao is small" excuse when the fight was rumored to be on in 2010. It shouldn't be surprised that it's being used again along with 10 other imaginary excuses.

    They never thought Pac could win, it was just the "hope" that he could win.

    He can, the question is will his hand hold up? If he goes for it and Pac takes it well.. Injuring your right hand early in the fight would cause Floyd the fight.

    If he's working on his power, it's probably because (i) he's old, (ii) it's part of his roiding program, and (iii) he's preparing for inside fighting as one of the different looks he'll give a quick southpaw because his defense against him will not be as good - or, or, if he gets desperate and needs to make the fight dirty.

    It all depends on how much Memo is helping him. If he's getting the same stuff that Marquez is getting, definitely.

    I have a better question for you, does Manny have a chin? You posting like Manny is some steel jawed cyborg. Pac has been KTFO three times in his career! I dont doubt Floyd has always had the power to stop Manny, especially when you factor in how Manny likes to jump into your punches doubling the impact!

    It depends if Manny leaves his feet and jumps into a counter punch along with a number of bad habits he showcases in a fight. Floyd won't even need to use his power. Roach just produces entertaining fighters a la Manny and Prodnikov. He doesn't teach defense or boxing fundamentals.

    Possibly but I don't think he has the guts to go for a kayo against a fighter like Pac!:nono

    I totally disagree. 1st off, history of Pac shows a reduce in punch output when facing counter-punchers, He does leap in recklessly at times (which i think will be the reason he get's KOed), and he generally does not have the ability to adjust or ring intelligence that Mayweather does. Floyd wins this fight no matter what, unless Manny lands a lucky haymaker.

    And yes, Floyd has always had the power to KO Pacquiao, like someone has said on this thread, He won't be the smaller guy in the ring this time, which he hasn't been only twice since coming to 147 (Hatton, Marquez) He knocked Hatton out and knocked Marquez down.
