    Burst ear drum maybe?
    He did have a bandage around his right ear during the post fight presser.

    The footwork comment is absurd, FMJ owns Manny there.

    I do feel that Pacquiao will give Mayweather a good fight, it will be beautiful to watch the style clash unfold, Floyd is still the smoother boxer with the better defence & punch accuracy, Im going with Floyd despite Pac continuing to shock me.

    :rofl
    I just have to laugh at this. Seriously? Does Mayweather really think that Pacquiao is the same as before when he was a flyweight? A teenager? :rofl

    Manny is currently the best boxer in our era. Floyd is the best defensive boxer in our era, who never really took a real challenge. I mean seriously he's only pointing out Pacquiao's early loses. JMM has some loses before he fought him. Bladomir, Gatti, Dela Hoya, these boxers had already lost and have been KO'd before! Now, he's making an excuse that Pacquiao has been KO'd and lost before. :patsch How pathetic!

    Pac should go for the body to win against Mayweather...

    Not so long ago I would have found the notion of Paquiao scoring a ko of Floyd laughable. Right now, all I know is that I'm not betting against Pac doing anything.

    Stopping Floyd? Being elected Prime Minister of the Phillipines? His next album out-selling "Thriller"? His next movie receiving more critical acclaim than Godfather pt II?

    Nothing he does surprises me anymore.

    Both fighters IMO will have the toughest fights of their careers...Both fighters are the best each has ever faced...It will be competitive...I dont see what Roach sees.....I dont see how manny can crack that defense...I think it will be a competitive fight and both fighters will mix it up to give the fans a good fight

    Nah Manny has a better foot work than Floyd. Floyd has better body movement than Pacquiao. And I agree Floyd-Manny will be beautiful to watch! SERIOUSLY MAN! That will be the fight of the century!!:good

    I love it. Let the trash-talking begin for all sides.

    I also pick Floyd in this fight.

    After watching some of Pac-Cotto again, I feel a little better about Pac's chances against PBF, but I still think PBF's natural size and reach advantages -- combined with his skill set -- gets the job done.

    If they were the same natural size/reach, I would take Pac. But they're not. Pac's still a guy who started his career at 106 lbs. I think PBF is one step too far for him.

    Mayweather deserves the trash talking. Fight not even signed yet and both parties have already started. This is gonna be good. I can picture Pac being genuinely pissed off with PBF's trash talking, all his opponents so far has been pretty respectful. When Morales started talking a bit of trash he retaliated with his own.
