    I am watching ESPN first take and both anylists are giving Mayweather no chance against the Pacman. :nut

    Skip said he could get on his bike for 8 or 10 rounds but eventually Pacquiao is gonna catchup to him. I agree with both that Mayweather is gonna be backpeddling but to say he can't win a decision is laughable.

    He also said Pac has better handspeed than a prime SRL. :patsch The problem with most mainstream sports anylists is that boxing is on the backpage so often that they don't pay attention to the fight game like they used to and we get statements like this.

    I'm pretty sure Mayweather will be the underdog going into this fight, all that means nothing really till they step in the ring and I'm pretty confident Mayweather won't fade like the rest and give up.

    He does have better handspeed than SRL. SRL is one of my all time faves but shoeshining speed is different from straight and hook power punches that opponents cant see.

    Floyd is going to win this by decision if hes still the same fighter, but he'll be in a fight of his life

    Don't get me wrong if Mayweather fought Pac I want Pac to do to him what he did to Ricky Hatton but if people are gonna get paid for their sports opinions, they should have good ones. :good

    Guy is a freaking idiot. I was watching it, the fool must probably have never seen fighters like Meldrick Taylor, Hector Camacho, SSM in his younger years, guys with absolute blazing hands. He also said Pacquaio had faster hands than a Prime Ali.

    I think Ray was faster in most facets. The speed on his jab and combination punches were a league above Pacs.

    I've been following the sport for 25 of my 28 years, and I never once heard Bayless ever talk about boxing.

    **** that bandwagoner.

    Floyd probably won't be the underdog but I hope he is so I can hammer him on the moneyline.
