    when they meet.

    I dislike Mayweather's fighting style, he never presses the action even against smaller fighters, in my eyes, is boring but he does what he does extremely well.

    He hides behind those shoulders, has cat-like reflexes, ducks, racks up points 1-2 potshot at a time and that style has proven to be his key to the "W".

    Manny proved me dead wrong against Cotto and I would love nothing better than to see Pac get the win against Mayweather but I dont think its going to happen.

    Same here, I dislike Mayweather and that's why I'll root for the Pacman, but I favour Mayweather to win this. If I had to bet my house I'd definitely put it on Mayweather. A Mayweather win is far from given tho, and the Pacman has proved me wrong more than once.

    I would love to see Manny prove both of us wrong but I'm with you. Cotto spent most of the fight squared up on Manny. Cotto is a well-schooled fighter, I've always said that. Huge victory but Mayweather will be sideways with virtually nothing available to score on. Probably.

    I think that Pacman would pressure PBF into making this a far more entertaining fight than his normal standard. But yeah I would love to have Pacman win, but if it was my life at stake than I would go for the safe choice and bet on Floyd.

    But boy I am looking forward for this fight. I have an idea that anything could happen :happy

    I don't dislike either fighter but I like Manny more. It does seem all set up for a Mayweather victory. Then I wonder, could Pac win? In my mind that would be a big upset. I don't know how the general public sees it. I wonder what the odds will be-maybe 3 to 1 for Money.

    I concur with the first 2 posts- don't like Mayweather but he's a master class boxer and as much as I'd love to see Manny win, dont think it will happen

    As much as I dislike PACMAN, I see him beating FLOYD real bad, his face swollen and crying to submission. In the end , like those fighters that were ahead of FLOYD, he will be declaring, "PACMAN, you're the greatest fighter I ever fought!, You're my IDOL" :hat
