    No and no. I believe just the opposite. Or Floyd wouldn't milk the fight this way. Dude one thing I know for a fact is right now this is the only fight that matters to Money. He knows this is the biggest payday he could ever have and believe me it might take til summer 2012 but he's going to get his 100 Million and nothing else really matters to this guy. He doesn't even talk about any other opponent. Roger is hands down sure that they got a gameplan that's going to take Pac out. So I know their definitely not scared. This is really the 1st time that Floyd has had the leverage over Arum and I really think he's just enjoying it. There's a lot of bad blood regardless of the SuperBowl, Jerry Jones owners box love fest! That stuff just doesn't go away and than insert GBP. We're at least a year away barring a miracle.

    O.k, so you are saying this fight is ON! ( albeit 3 years later than expected)

    Tell you what, when you're talking about mentality, I don't care how convincing Floyd was in his victory over Hatton, early in that fight Floyd Mayweather lost his focus at times, mentally the occasion got to him and for a few rounds too. (* more so than the Zab or Mosley early glitches) It's just he got away with it versus Hatton.

    It think we'll see the same should he fight Manny, I think he'll let the occasion get to him and will be vulnerable early in that fight. I still take him to decision Pacquiao once he settles and gets his rhythm but I also know that Pacquiao is a different animal to Hatton.

    Floyd will have to take some punishment in that fight.

    You could say that because early in that fight he didn't look as relaxed as he usually does but he took his time and figured it out. There was a lot of patience. If Ricky would've kept trying to wrestle him and tie him up like he did in the early rounds Ricky could've finished the fight. But, like Ricky does he started to stalk him looking for the big shot and than we know what comes next! As far as Pac I think everyone his going to be shocked that Floyd ain't that much bigger than this guy. This Floyd knows this all to well. I think were going to see Floyd open his arsenal like we all know he can and like we haven't seen in a bout! If you go to a open sparring session Floyd has in Chinatown at his gym (every 2 years now) before his next fight you'll see a difference in the guy sparring in the ring going buck-wild throwing non-stop punches as opposed to the measured, reserved, well calculated Floyd that we're all used to seeing.

    I didn't mean it in the general ignorant you're a **** sense but mo like you know Manny's game. I should differentiate. I'm a **** when it comes to fighting inside and a ***** in the middle of the ring. I'm not a **** in the fan sense which I didn't clarify when I called you that Sorry! No **** in general disrespect!

    You mean he almost nullified a light middleweights offense who was way past it, and Floyd was no welterweight in that fight.

    Oscar was way past his prime made Floyd look ordinary. Bernard Hopkins did a way better job on Oscar years prior.

    Mayweather doesn't watch film of opponents. He makes adjustments in the ring.

    Nullified ? barely edged out Oscar and ODLH landed the 2nd most power shots on Mayweather of his career. I don't call that nullified.

    floyd will watch the fight live or have a fight party.mayweather will jut go out and box manny.keep him out the end of the jab and counter, you might be surprised how effortless it might look in the ring.shane will have a game plan but i see him trying to land one big punch trying to ko manny.hopefully he just focuses on putting hands on manny.i dout floyd will study the fight but i can see him watching the fight.roger on the other hand will watch that fight 100x with is mayweather sr.

    This....he's not about to see anything that he hasn't already seen in this fight.

    I wonder if he will attend the fight though....could be intresting.
