    That's because you floyd fans have gotten used to seeing him dominate tomato cans for the past 8-10 years. This is a vastly different fight, mark my words, like what's his name above does LOL

    Only a complete nutcase would use the term "exposed" against either of these already proven ATG fighters.

    This fight has all the makings of this. A supposed ATG who toots his own horn too much, gotten used to his handpicked fights, now gets his ass handed to him by another fighter on or possibly above his level. Common opponents with exception of Marquez, all got wasted by Pac. Floyd recently says he's the best ever, only to lose to a man everyone is picking against. Floyd is aging, getting hit more than ever, fighting a guy that throws more than ever. Pac is a recipe for disaster for Floyd at this stage of his career.

    Losing to Pacquiao throws back the curtain and reveals all of Mayweather's erstwhile accomplishments to be smoke & mirrors?

    Is that honestly what you're saying?

    Maybe he will if legitimate drug testing takes place post fight. Exposed as a cheat.

    How do you figure? Floyd hasn't faced anything like Pac before, in fact, floyd hasn't even faced another ATG that isn't washed up. That's a huge factor here IMO. Fans get used to seeing him box circles around inferior fighters, only to ignorantly think he's going to do this vs Pac? LOL
    This fight is a massive step up for Floyd, coupled with him aging and slowing down, facing one of the quickest, hardest hitting fighters he's ever faced, that's a southpaw?
    Oh boy. I've said anything can happen in this fight, and floyd being soundly beaten or KO'd is one of them. Pac exposed Oscar, at that point in Oscar's career he was finished, pac exposed that. Floyd is slowing down, aging, hasn't faced a great like Pac before, and pac potentially can expose this in Floyd.

    WHO HAS FLOYD BEATEN that's a great? Please list these names. Hernandez was his closest and who Floyd claims is his greatest victory, an Oscar left over! LOL And you wonder why I say Pac may expose Floyd! LOL

    One thing that keeps creeping in my mind... is Pacquiao's foot speed. The main problem with Floyd Mayweather is an opponent's inability to close the distance on him [be fast enough to land before he reacts] and then get out [be fast enough to get out before he counters].

    No one. Not a single opponent has had the ability, simply put because there aren't many who have the ability. But... Pacquiao does. Pacquiao could very well be fast enough to close the distance, and more importantly, get out... and if it turns out he CAN (which we will know within the first two rounds), then I could very well pick Pacquiao to win.

    That's why I love this fight so much. You always see how amazing Floyd is defensively. I wonder if we'll hear Lampley say something similar from Pac's last fight, "First round shows that Manny Pacquiao can find Floyd Mayweather and land on him."

    If Manny can't land on Floyd though, then it's over. But it's amazing. You've never seen Manny not land on someone consistently and you've never seen someone consistently land on Mayweather. Something's got to give, and I wonder if Manny's superior footwork can do the trick. I wonder if thats the missing piece.

    Manny may not have the skills to beat Floyd, but he may have the style.

    You're an Oscar***ual of course you want PBF to lose, the truth is that you're worried. PBF fans aren't worried why because he holds the advantages in all the factors that will be key. Mainly the ability to make adjustments reach advantage counter punching and defense. Your ****ysis is so one sided that it's laughable. You play up all the things you feel PBF can't do and play up everything you think Pac can do. Come fight night you'll once again be ****ed off and look for the next guy to bring PBF down like you've done since May 5th 2007 AKA Cinco De Mayweather.:hi:

    And Pac isn't used to getting out of the way of a right hands he had 4 fights with JMM and he still hasn't solved it yet, he's a sucker for them.

    PBF's speed is more usable it's more of a factor. Even Roach said PBF was faster in his breakdown of the fighters and this shocked Pac****s but not people who know boxing.:deal I wouldn't expect you to understand because your technical knowledge of the sweet science is limited. All that stuff you're talking about being battle tested is non-sense, wishful thinking it has no merit. What isn't nonsense is reach level of skill and ring IQ and you will realize this come fight night.

    I believe the fact that Floyd "struggled" against Maidana while Pac domianted Aligeri and Rios has tilted the predictions a little closer towards Pac.

    The only thing that will be exposed, is somebody who has fought only 2 of his 10 fights at 147 against men who actually won a fight at 147 the fight before. 6 of 10 against unranked opposition at 147. 4 of those bouts against men who had never won a fight in their career at 147.

    That is what is going to get exposed May 2nd. You can come to your own conclusions about who that is.
