    Makes it challenging to make a decision on whether to put the $ on Floyd by a beatdown through the stretch for a UD or a KO.:think

    Whatiker/Chavez Mayweather is Whitaker Pacquiao is Chavez. However this time the judges get it right.

    You know it's also possible Pacquiao will hurt him early right?

    He will counter against pacquiao. Honestly it's the right fight plan because pac will throw lots of punches giving mayweather opportunities to counter. Once they get in the ring i don't think pac will have an answer once the all out assault doesn't work.

    Floyd wins this because he is so much more versatile. Pac can only hope he hurts him early and puts him away. He isnt decisioning him over 12.

    Floyd can fight going forwards, pushing Pac back and pac isnt used to having to fight going back. He can also fight backing up and moving laterally. If the shoulder roll doesnt work well with Pac he can try the winky style high guard that he had great success with shane and Clottey seemed to have success with Pac. Floyd has a great jab but he is also great at fighting without it and using a lead right. He has so many options available to him and does so many things well that if one doesnt work he can try something else and within a few rounds he will have pac figured out. Floyd rarely looses rounds the second half of the fight. Pac has to stop Floyd early to win.

    I think a PBF - Pacman fight will look alot like the Khan - Malignaggi fight. I think Pacman will be the agressor and surprise PBF with his ability to hit him. Sure Pacman will get hit with some counter punches but I dont believe they will be enough to deter Pacman from coming forward and eventually knock PBF out. I dont thiink PBF has enough power on his counter punches to keep Pacman from throwing his usual 100 punches in a round, most of which will connect. be he will not connect as much as he usually does cause of PBF defense but it will be enough.

    :patsch

    1) He only threw 70 punches per round against Cotto. The guy who doesn't have Floyd's boxing skills, and was frustrated into trying to be a hero by coming forward to brawl.

    2) Floyd was able to rock Mosley who everyone voted on as having a superior chin to emmanuel.

    Mayweather will figure him out and then go to work, all night.

    Possible sure. However we have seen how Mayweather reacts when hurt (vs. Mosley in the second round). This is assuming that Pacquiao can get close enough to land those punches.
