    That's my point, though...this version of Pac doesn't fight backwards. he turns his opponents now. This is how he beat his last three opponents.

    His last 3 opponents didn't have a clue. They all thought they could just bulldoze him because he was supposedly "small". Floyd has the ring savy and ability to impose effective pressure. Manny is still the same fighter he has always been he's just mastered the tactics he's already shown.

    If you're a Floyd fan, you had better hope Floyd isn't as naive as you. This version of Pac is a beast and can beat Floyd if he underestimates him.

    I should replace "Will" with "Could" in the thread title. It's starting some controversy.

    Floyd's not a dumbass. Only idiots think Manny is the same fighter as always. Floyd knows there is no good reason to "taste" Pac's power as he's already fought the same guys, and did nowhere near the same damage on them. That's parity, that's how he knows what Pac is packing and he will not try to back him down.

    So, everyone believes Floyd should box his way to a victory, but how will you feel if he does. Will you call him a runner or p*ssy for whitewashing the cards.

    You shouldn't assume that if Floyd boxes Pac, it will be enough to win the fight. Both men will face a lot of adversity if this fight ever takes place.

    Void will have his judges, his referee, his commentators, his venue, his ring, etc., and for a very good reason.

    Floyd being aggressive doesn't mean it will be a slugfest. If he can counter right, and use his amazing body work. He can certainly break pacman down. Alot remains to be seen.

    If Floyd just wins the fight, it will be his biggest victory and he will have nothing left to prove...this is how good pac is at the moment...this is why there is such a demand for the big fight.

    Anyone who doesn't believe this is naive...this is truly floyd's toughest test to date.

    I don't think Floyd has dealt with anyone with Pac's speed, power, and intensity. I think Pac will get to him. I'm dying to see how Floyd reacts when he gets nailed on the button.

    You can tell that you've put a lot of thought into this. I mean it's not like you're just regurgitating Mayweather's own comments on the matter. Not at all.
