    has all the chaos in the build up to the super fight between pacman an floyd made people change their mind on who'd win?

    did people favour floyd but decide he's scared and now expect pac to win?

    or on the flipside favour pac and now expect floyd to win?

    personally i did think pac would stop floyd late on, but his reluctance to sign seems to tell me he's bitten off more than he can chew, i'm now expecting a career defining victory for floyd, in style.

    When the fight was anounced I picked Mayweather by decision or by late round stoppage. This is still my pick.

    i agree, i see him really pulling out all the stops in this fight. everyone knows itll be the fight his legacy gets based on. first time since he's been number 1 that someone of worth is fighting him.

    My intitial prediction was Floyd close UD or SD. After all this bs, I believe Pac is going to be like a possessed demon who is not going to let up on Floyd once they fight. Pac late KO or SD.

    Mayweathers always supposedly going to get beaten, it doesnt
    happen and it sure as hell wont happen if this fight goes ahead.

    Mosely would prove to be Floyds biggest test and I suspect that
    Mayweather knows it aswell, still, Shanes getting on, wouldnt suprise
    if this fight happens after Floyd schools Pac.

    mate, i think every great fighter has one last great fight, and mosley had his against margo. berto will prove too quick and too strong. i feel mosley has a punchers chance but that is all

    I picked Floyd to win against Pac and I still think he will win ,but after all this crap even tho I think Floyd will win I hope Pac destroys him in fact I would be delighted if Pac KOed floyd in the first round :rasta

    So your saying that Pacquiao is going to be really agresive? How is that going to be any diffrent from how he normaly fights?

    I'm saying he's going to take it up a notch, a very, very noticable notch.

    frankly, IMO, i think an angry pac helps floyd. pac gets in trouble when he gets wild. a wild uncontrolled pac would be target practice for a skilled counter puncher. if pac wants to win, he has to control the fight, and control himself.

    Floyd still wins this relatively easy imo.

    When talks first started, I picked Mayweather by SD, but now at this point I couldn't care less who wins I just wanna see them fight

    Psh, he clearly hasn't REALLY been fighting to win until now. Sure, he could throw 200 hard punches a round for 12 rounds, he just didn't want to because he's a nice guy. But now that he's angry....oh, you wouldn't like him when he's angry.
