    A lot of non boxing people I know whatched de la hoya Mayweather and they said that the reason they never liked boxing was causeit was boring and still is.

    Wont be Pacs fault it will be floyds and it is exactly what will happen

    I have to laugh as floyd will promote with his usual "going out on face or back toe to toe battle horse****"

    People who bring **** up like this don't know the sport. They are two different fighters with two different styles. Pac is an aggressive pressure fighter who looks to knock you out as soon as possible. PBF is a defensive counter-puncher who looks to outbox you and win by UD. If the KO is there he will take it but iof not he's happy to win a UD. Two very different styles with the same goal winning. PBF's win over Hatton is just as impressive as Manny's. He figured Hatton out beat him at his own game broke him down and stopped him. It was tactically brilliant. Pac was impressive as well he got Hatton out of there early by going right at him. A 12 round clinic can be equally as impressive as a 2nd round KO appreciate all styles people.:-(

    Clottey particularly

    Thats why i was so confident of pac winnign I just kept seeing Clottey slamming in those jab - rights hands , thinking if JC can do that Pac most certainly will !

    And has Floyd fought a welter that is as good as either Clottey and/or Shane? And by the way, Cotto manages to win both fights, but gets TKO'd by Pac!? Just saying, Cotto was big test/barometer of how good Pac really is, and the fight showed Pac is no joke at welter. If FLoyd was regularly fighting the types of fighters Cotto has at welter, I would have a different impression of him.

    Exactly Pac hasn't shown the type of ability to adapt that PBF has. I'm telling you right now that if Pac comes in on PBF like he did Cotto it won't work. Then what? He will become frustrated because then he will have to enter a boxing match with a superior boxer. I put my money on PBF because he has the better defense and is the more versatile fighter. Pac's only chance is to win by KO and betting on a KO of a fighter that has never been knocked down really hurt and has the best defense in the sport is foolish. Pac isn't going to win a decision against PBF.
