    After all training is completed, bets are all set and done ...the bell ring....Heart will be the unknown variable that could turn the scales of this fight one way or another....

    Heart is something inherit, not developed, it comes from walking thru fire again and again, staring at adversity all thru your career...

    This will be the variable that will determine the outcome of this fight...

    And for me this unknown favors Pacquiao!

    I don't know why you think it's unknown? Bot these guys are proven in the ring, both of them very clearly have a lot of guts. I don't think 12 rounds is enough for either one of these guys to find the bottom of the other's well in terms of heart.

    I don't think it will be a factor a all.

    I disagree, other than Castillo, and MAYBE Maidana...PBF Has not been taken to deep deep waters....

    Pacquiao had...he's been vulnerable...KD...KO in embarrassing fashioned ...that works have retired 95% of current boxers....yet here he is starring at the most important fight of his career:patsch

    Floyd has been hurt plenty of times. He's not invincible, he gets caught from time to time.

    Can't go far enough in a brutal and deadly sport like Mayweather and Pacquiao did if you don't have heart.

    I'd rather go by the known variables which is that Floyd is the far more skilled boxer.

    When your technically superior and defensively sound. You don't need to rely on chin and heart.
