    How do you see the fight playing out ? Does it play out different than it did at 147?

    It does not play out any different. Mayweather will win again.

    Pacquiao knockout, mid rounds, several knockdowns before.

    Yes Floyd was punching harder than at 147. The Floyd of the Arthur Gatti fight puts Pacquiao in hospital.

    Mayweather wins again, though it would have been a tougher and better fight than what they gave us in 2015.

    Probably worse at 140 for pac. Pbf was a beast there faster of both hand and foot and more pop. Pbf beats any version of pac better more complete boxer.

    Dream fight.

    Floyd was a much better version of himself at 140 than 147. Pacquiao , while only fighting once at 140, was clearly much much more effective than he was as a WW.

    Floyd always looked awkward fighting southpaws. None of the magic was there, just walking down behind a high guard. Even against Ortiz he's 34 and it's rough looking. He didn't figure it out until Guerrero fight.
    Go watch those fights against Sharmba Mitchel and Demarcus Corley at 140. He's elite but not special.

    Mayweather beats him at every weight as long as there's advanced drug testing

    The Pacquiao that Beat Hatton like that was a force for a lesser word & was very hard to contain, he only fought at that weight for that one fight,

    I just couldn't imagine Floyd beating him especially in the way people here are saying, guess we will never know.
