    I was actually hoping Manny would be the favorite. More money for me.

    How interesting. Bookies are turning the tables. Pac was a 7 to 5 favorite before this.

    The bookies have absolutely no idea what to do with this line. It looks like it has moved again since this topic was posted.

    If you want to make a lot of money bet on Mayweather to win a UD or SD in a fight everyone hates him for afterwards.

    Then wait until a day before the fight before betting and I'm pretty confident Pacman will be the favorite. As for me, I will be putting my bet in as soon as the fight is signed.

    Damm, i want Pacman to win but if i had to put my money down, i would probably do it on PBF via decision.

    Same here. I would love to see Pac win, but don't ask me to put money on him.

    Good, I'm leaning toward Pac. I think Pac's chances are being short-sided. A guy who punches non-stop with blazing combos of 2,3,4, and 5 is going to trip up Floyd. That's the guy you want to fight Floyd. Someone who pitches quick punches from all over. His durability is proven, and his footwork is too fast for Floyd to just move. Pac will make Floyd fight, and his upper body movement and fluidity will surprise Floyd. Floyd will be catching and countering and putting Pac in his place but Pac will catch Floyd and make him notice. Pac has too many edges for this fight to not be competitive. I understand a Floyd decision too, as it seems only big strong guys can deter Floyd. Smaller welterweights (As legit as Pac is) generally can be out-muscled and brushed off easier.
