    I expect that Pac Man will display a much more effective offensive than Rios did. Rios was not effective. Period. Pac man probably will be effective against Pretty Boy.

    You hit the nail on the head. This baloney about favoring aggression over counterpunching/boxing/running -- on the grounds that the former represents "effective aggression" and superior "ring generalship" -- is nothing more than a license for judges to kiss the "A" side's ass.

    I notice that you neglected to comment on the corresponding parallel (that Mayweather will display a much more effective defense than Abril).

    Please, please, please, please, please tell me you don't put that scrub up there with PBF in terms of defensive skill.

    I know you're riding high on him at the moment, but come on...:yep

    We're talking about Mayweather.

    But this the reason why you cant have a xx-xx split for the winner. Arum is a shady guy and you never know.

    Pacquiao-Mayweather will look absolutely nothing like this fight. Try Williams-Lara next time.

    I don't think a decision is necessary, Mayweather has the tools to walk down Pacquiao and punish the body as well.

    With Arum in the picture, you never know. Money talks and Arum is known to be corrupt. He is just as corrupted as Don King if not more.
