    Same could be said for rjj until he fought DeValle (think that was his name).

    Floyd's never had to deal with this type of guy before and he won't just walk in knowing exactly what's coming at him. He takes a few rounds to adjust, but before he can make the changes his opponent has an opportunity to catch him off guard. Again I see that happening.

    Judah did it
    Mosley did it
    Hatton did it
    Corley did it

    Why not pacquiao?

    I wouldn't be surprised. I've always felt that Pacquiao's style, aggression, and awkwardness would take Floyd by surprise early on and catch him off balance. I don't think he'll be hurt, I'd imagine he gets caught trying to evade.

    I totally disagree

    If Pacquiao can knock Mayweather down, then he'll win or get robbed

    If Mayweather wins, it'll be a domination or a robbery

    Judah. The last fast southpaw Floyd fought.

    I think it is

    Bradley takes a lot more risks and as a result has taken more devastating punches

    His chin is more proven

    lol@ Floyd tasting canvas. Pac will be knocked down multiple times in this fight on route to a stoppage, BOOK IT.

    Pac has glass in his mandible..

    Floyd has glass in his hands. If he tries to unleash his fury on Pac too early in the fight and it doesn't work he may have real serious problems mounting his counterattacks later on.

    If the fights at 147 they will be both using 8oz gloves
    You can't have a fight sanctioned in 2 different weight gloves

    People can throw out anything you've seen Floyd do to his past opponents, it bares little relevance to what he is capable of doing to pac. Pac is a whole different animal and floyd has never been in a fight like this will be. And you better believe Pac wants this more than Floyd. I can see Floyd tasting the canvas for sure but I don't think Pac can win on the cards, Floyd is a better boxer at the end of the day. I think Pac needs to KO him and its not out of the question at all.
