    Like in Floyd vs. Hatton? Floyd will be close to middleweight when/if he faces Pac man. Pac will be 148 at best fight nite. Floyd's size will be to his advantage. Floyd is smart enough to exploit that against Pac man. Im the bigger dude, u will have to respect me.

    Floyd only comes in at about 148 himself, but he is a bigger man than Pac. More than the size, it will be the reach that gives him trouble.

    A Jab can disrupt Pac. Mayweather has an excellent one when he throws it. I think he will use it against Pac.

    Floyd came into his last fight at 147. He tried eating 3 big meals after the weigh in and couldn't gain any weight

    Where do you guys get that floyd came into his last fight at 147? He stopped weighing in the night of the fight when his size started to increase? Funny is'nt it?

    Floyd has 3 inches of arm length over emmanuel

    Floyd is also physically stronger

    We'll see him use the arm length advantage on the outside and the strength advantage on the inside/clinches

    Against Marquez he looked huge. Marquez couldnt even hurt him with those right hands.

    Marquez was fighting at a weight he was not accustomed to, no shock he could not hurt Floyd.

    Boxing fans sure do love to fantasize, and that's all PBF/Pac is, or ever will be: Just a fantasy match-up.

    LOL So because he says it than it is true. Sarcastic?? If he was it would make him look good to weigh in the night of the fight. When he fought judah he weighed in around the limit on fightnight. He has gotten bigger and stopped weighing in the night of the fight. LOL Because he said it. Golden

    There's a smart way to use your size advantages against emmanuel and a dumb way. Hatton, Cotto, and antonio mindlessly came towards him gambling on their power and chin. Speed usually beats power, and that's how those fights played out.

    Mayweather's camp are smarter than you think, they'll have a gameplan for sure.
