    Constable/Boxing_Master has never liked the fight, he as many other Pac****s have always liked the idea of Floyd ducking Manny better than the fight itself. Their ultimate wish is that the fight never happens so they can claim "duck"

    Mayweathers reflexes have slipped and he isnt as active. He got caught by MM with shots that wouldnt have landed several years back. He can also get caught with the straight left, see Judah.

    On top of that Floyd has been fighting plodders while Pac has been fighting boxers. Pac is better prepared.

    Theyve probably both declined about the same.

    Oh, Mayweather by far has an extremely durable style. This is why he looked so prime-like against Canelo. Seriously, one of his best performances. It was absolutely beautiful.

    His style isn't coming into play right now though. His age and attrition is, both of their's. I think Mayweather is starting to go down the slippage hill and is picking up pace. The changes in your body are a lot more prevalent from 39 to 40 than it is 25 to 26. Mayweather's older than Pacquiao, by two years. That may not seem like much, but a lot can happen in your body in two years when you are getting up there in age.

    I thought Mayweather would use more his unparalleled reflexes and fast feet against Maidana, but he didn't. Perhaps Maidana was hard to time due to that weird overhand right he had, but I don't know. I'm just going off their most recent performances...and as crazy as it sounds, I truly believe Pacquiao looked fresher physically. It's weird too because Algieri was stylistically such a bad match up for him.

    I'm thrilled that this fight is happening now, because they are both starting to slip noticeably, so it's better to happen now than never. Just shows once again how we instead of blaming them for whatever happened in the past, we should appreciate the time we have left with them. Because, we don't have much.

    Im saying, any difference is minimal.

    Hes slipped no more than Floyd has, lets put it that way.

    Much left?? He beat a P4P top 10 fighter this year!!!

    is that a "FACT!" :yep

    this is why boxing_master, constable are the worst posters

    for years floyd and manny fans have been at eachothers throats about whos better or who would win but both sides were dying for the fight.

    then this idiot gets on when the fight looks close to being signed and starts trying to ruin it? :-( just a complete ****wit

    Pac is like a high flyer plane that is on descent but he is still above 97% above other plane.

    Great Fighters like Pac and Floyd are so good that even if they are at 50 percent, is still good enough to beat fighters who are at their 100 percent.

    well if you say so....

    This year Pac easily beat a top 10 p4p fighter.

    Floyd surprisingly struggled with Marcos Maidana.

    But whatever you say chief....
