    After Mayweathers dominating win over JMM almost everybody in here including Pinoys didnt give Manny a chance of beating Mayweather. I just wonder if you guys have a change of heart after the Cotto fight. Its really dead even for me now and Manny might just pull out this one.

    BEFORE : 70-30 Mayweather
    NOW: 50-50

    Before - 25%

    now - 40%

    :lol:

    Nothing changed THAT much beyond the fact that pac is just, BETTER all around then i really thought. Ya he displayed his ability against diaz and oscar, the hatton fight was too short, but this showed me a lot of the subtle things he does now that has made him a very lethal fighter.

    but mayweather and cotto are two different fighters..... i think mayweather gives pac major problems.

    Here's the thing: The De La Hoya fight really didn't show us anything since the skeleton of De La Hoya had no energy. The Hatton fight didn't show us much since it was markedly short.

    The Cotto fight, however, finally showed us something. Pacquiao can take a shot at 145lbs, carries his speed and power late, and most definitely can fight at this weight.

    Now I'm about 55/45 in favor of Pacquiao. The granite chin and the new found welter weight power will push him to the top.

    At first I gave Manny about a 30% chance of winning the fight. I'm still leaning a little on the Mayweather side. Now maybe 55-45. I can picture PBF outboxing him more than Manny knocking him out. Hopefully we will get to find out.

    Before: 85-15

    Now:60-40

    If Floyd has one more tune-up: 85 - 15

    I don't care what anyone say about his last performance. I think Floyd looked like **** for most of it.

    I take Paccy 70/30. As good as PBF is defensively , I cannot see him landing more than Paccy.
