    As much as I hate PBF, he will win a fairly close decision against Pacman, and just may knock him out.

    I think Floyd cannot win a decision against Pac especially if its a close one.. I think the judges are leaning for Pac imo. Floyd needs to outbox the **** out of Pac to win a decision. And i think its impossible.

    No, really, you can't treat Pacquiao as a textbook fighter considering that he's practically a self-taught boxer from early on when he decided to become a boxer. So much of what Manny does is technically wrong, such as how low he keeps his hands between punches, yet he's able to get away with leaving those flaws alone (for the most part) through sheer athleticism. It also seems that his technical flaws almost allow him to add dimensions to his offense that no other fighter (that learned to box properly) could, by throwing bombs from positions boxers shouldn't fundamentally be in, and that contributes to Pac throwing punches from so many different angles. It doesn't look all that different from a third-person view, but unfortunately, Pac's opponents have to see and react to them from a first-person view, and you can only focus on and look out for so much.

    I really don't see Mayweather leaving the fight unhurt, whether he wins or loses.
