    I still don't know who would win if they fought. There's two extremes, either Floyd schools him badly or Manny KO's Floyd badly. Thing is, if Floyd connects (obviously), he will hurt Manny. On the other hand, if Manny connects (oh trust me he will) then he will KO Floyd. That's the difference. Thoughts?

    Manny took some pretty flush shots from Cotto, a strong welterweight, I doubt Floyd could hurt him. You are right about the styles though, no other boxer on earth fights like how these 2 fight which is why its such a great matchup and predicting who win is futile I think.

    It's a shame there's more posts about Floyd-Pac when Floyd has a fight with Shane Mosley 6 days from now.

    I am in agreement here I like both fighters equally and I try to be objective in this sea of fan boys. I think Floyd can stop him like the Hatton fight down the stretch through accumulation. Manny can also stop him. I feel though that it would go 12 seeing Floyd will box well and stay away and Manny has a good chin

    I think Manny's too aggressive and sloppy. I see this fight going kinda like Mayweather vs Hatton. And I see Pacquiao getting ko'd mid to late rounds.

    That logic can't be used when Floyd is involved. Tszyu hits ten times harder than Floyd, and Hatton took his shots while Floyd TKO'd him. So Floyd does have the possibility of KO'ing Manny!

    Well anyone has a possibility as this is boxing but I think Manny is a way better boxer than Hatton and the odds are against him KOing manny

    I can see mayweather schooling pac JMM style. pac is too sloppy and untechnical to compete with floyd. he may have a punchers chance, but i doubt it because floyd is very elusive and his chin is very under-rated

    2lbs, I don't think so. Cotto was a true warrior in that fight, he just couldn't handle manny's speed. If we look at all of the fights of manny's since diaz Cotto was the only one to give him a bit of hell.

    It isn't two extremes. I could easily see Manny winning a points decision on activity.

    Floyd won't hurt Manny if he connects. Floyd's not much of a puncher at welterweight. Pac took Cotto and Clottey's best shots without flinching, so Floyd isn't going to hurt him with one punch.

    I see Manny either winning on points or scoring a TKO . I think Manny is too much for Floyd in every way.
