    Floyd looks to be really motivated for this fight and this will be the first time in a long time he will be fighting a fighter smaller than him people are forgetting this.

    Floyds last KO was a sucker punch against Ortiz.... So in the last 8 years(almost a decade) His only KO has been against a china-chinned, fringe guy like Ortiz who was also stopped by Maidana, Lopez who was coming up in weight, and a washed up Collazo. Ortiz sucks... And Floyd needed a sucker punch to KO him.

    Floyd ran for the whole 12 rounds in his last fight against maidana.

    Floyd "could" get the stoppage, but it's unlikely. He doesn't put punches together enough and if there's any danger factor at all he backs off even against no hopers like Guerrero. Whatever motivation he may or may not have has never changed his safety-first style and I think he'll be more safety-first against Pacquiao compared to most opponents.

    Size won't be a factor. It never has w/ Pacquiao. Never will.

    size is not a factor for you?

    joking well of course size is not always a factor but when you add the skillset Floyd has it becomes a issue.

    It's possible. Pac is shot.

    Floyd isn't knocking out anybody ever again. Maidana walked through punches for 24 rounds and didn't look hurt once.

    Not according to the Flows, Floyd and Manny are the same size.

    I actually think Floyd would've got a late stoppage in that fight. He wobbled Ortiz a couple of times.

    Same size as in, they're both welters and both weigh about the same on fight night.

    These are weight classes, not height class. But yes, Pacquiao is his smallest opponent since Hatton.
