    I am a big Manny fan but if i had to bet my house i would bet on Floyd. I do think Manny is a real threat and could win the fight. Now saying that it is obvious that something about manny worries floyd. I dont feel like manny has any worry on the other hand. That is not to say he should'nt but i dont think he does. Thats one thing i really like in this fight as a pacquio fan. Floyd is much more concerned going in than pacquio

    Margarito, Cotto , Marquez. Real G's hence real men. Marquez did not ask for a Test because he believes in himself and believes he can beat pacquiao. Mayweather cannot belive pacquiao is that good and is afraid because if he honestly thought he could beat him then he would fight him with test or no test. He is questioning himself period.

    Obviously has very little self esteem, it can be good because he trains very hard for a fight but also bad when he underrates his own abilities or thinks an opponent might be too big of a threat.
    Despite Floyd being the favourite here, Pac is still a huge threat.
    For a carefull guy like Floyd its not weird he isnt very willing to have this fight.
    If he thought it would be easy he would have fought him already in 2010, its the beatings of hatton and cotto that created this.

    Contracts 101: The parties agree to terms and then tell the lawyers to draw up a contract. When they agree the contract reflects the deal, they sign it.

    Signing a contract with terms that the other party doesn't agree to is meaningless.

    Pac is possibly the only one who Floyd was not able to beat mentally. Pac sued Floyd. LOL! How can you beat that!

    What Mayweather sees in Pac is the biggest grossing and going away ass whoopin in boxing. To Floyd, Manny is the goose with the golden egg. The win over Pac will put him over the top in cash and cement his legacy as the greatest ( in his mind ) of all times. He wants to close the show with Pacs ass well beat or strechted out on the canvass. Thats how I see it.:bbb:bbb:bbb

    floyd is just a *****, simple as that really

    ''this asian midget is so ****ing good at boxing, hell he must be on some ****''

    that thought process alone shows everyone sensible that floyd see's a threat or why not just whoop that midgets ass?

    because its a known fact that Mayweather is ducking Asian fighters.
    He cant cope with their tenacity and determination.
    He wants fighters that will fight at his pace and are easily discouraged.
    Just look at his career in the last couple of years. All handpicked sylistically in his favor and mentally weak when they are behind.

    Pacs ass is on the slow cooker gents, when Money gets ready to serve his ass up it will well worth the wait. Roasted Pac on a sat night with a cold beer and some friends sounds good to me.:yep:yep

    Floyd haven´t fought any prime A+ fighters for a very long time. Castillo and Corrales was his last and only prime A+ fighters he ever fought. And pacquiao isnt a A+ he is a rare A+++ that makes other A+ fighters look **** so of course Mayweather want nothing of that

    I think this is a good point I never thought about. Manny really doesn't care as much as Floyd if he loses as long as he does what he does which is put on a good show and give the fans what they want which is to see Floyd take punishment. Mayweather on the other hand, can't handle losing and we know he doesn't want to be put in a position where he has to take punishment even if he does win comfortably.

    Add to the fact that Pac is one of very few fighters around Floyd's weight, that he can't trouble mentally and get inside his head and he's very aware of this.
