    the guy ius getting sparked out. it's a mismatch physcially and skill wise in mayweather favor. bad news for pacquiao.

    all these weird agnles, nonsense myth is for these delusional fans to give them hope.

    may2nd pacquiao is getting knocked out in the biggest fight in the history of the sport.

    Pacquiao is clearly faster.

    Pacquiao greatest advantage is he has faced and battled other ATG fighters and know how it is to be in deep waters. Mayweather has not.

    Too subjective. Plenty of boxers fight with a "unique style." Shock factor?? Meh. Honestly "shock factor" and a "unique style" isn't going to bring home a belt. Also power and explosiveness is something Pac hasn't shown since 2009. Watching Pac/Algieri and Floyd/Maidana... Floyd's hand speed is CLEARLY faster than Pac's. His punches snap MUCH quicker when you compare the two punch for punch. Pac only seems fast in the ring because he throws in bunches. And you're underestimating the movement and stamina of Floyd cuz Pac isn't any better in those categories. Floyd has never tired out and he barely gets hit.

    If I'm not mistaken, all 147lb fights call for 8oz gloves. Had Floyd asked for 10oz's he would have looked like a straight up ******!

    Im surprised that Floyd allowed for Pac to wear his Cleto Reyes which is a punchers glove. I would have thought he would have made Pac wear foam gloves like he did with Maidana.
