    dont knw wat fight u wer watchin but ortiz threw his head in out of frustration because he woz getin picked apart!!
    look dont like mayweather but paq will get a serious education if he dusnt brush up on his defence against probably the greatest counter puncher ever, evenin if hes an *******!! his offence wont be enough to win this fight unless he gets lucky!!

    Pac is going to get the boxing lesson of a lifetime in this fight. PBF will make Pac pay for his flaws over and over again. Pac will look one-dimensional and visably frustrated all night. He's not good enough technically to beat PBF, he's not going to outbox PBF and he's not going to KO him either. PBF by wide UD or TKO with Roach throwing in the towel after PBF shuts Pac's eyes or cuts him up to shreads.:deal

    Depends. Floyd tends to stand in the pocket nowadays. If he fights like that then he plays to Pac's strength. The more you make yourself a target, the more effective Pac's angles become. People act like Floyd fights like Marquez in that they're both counterpunchers, however, Marquez uses a backpedal to counter whereas Floyd's known for his pull counter. There's a difference. What Pac's last two fights shows is you need movement and maintain a safe distance to negate Pac's offense. The pull counter keeps Floyd where Pac can reach him. Then now it becomes a question of who has the faster hands to win those exchanges. If this were the case, I'd give Pac's dynamic punching the edge. Now if Floyd moves around and work behind his jab, I'd liken it to the Shane fight with Floyd doing better than Shane....but to me that's still a winnable fight for Pac.

    Both guys are quick. Mayweather will fire as soon as Pacman looks to throw which will make him reset. Mayweather is definitely faster in this regard.

    Teddy Atlas has Mayweather by KO.

    Do the math

    Either one of these options:

    -Mayweather by clinic in a one-sided fight but not enough to put Manny away, wide UD
    -Pacquiao down on cards going into the 10th round(around 8-10) and Floyd makes a mistake and pays for it, Manny Ko/TkO around 8-11
    -Pacquiao surprise us all in dominating Floyd until he stops him around 8-11, Pac TKO around 8-12
    -Floyd delivers a masterclass and stops him around 7-9, Floyd tko/ko 7-9


    Fight would not be boring, Manny wouldn't allow it to and if you're actually a BOXING fan a skillful-type fight would not be boring even if it's one guy putting on a clinic like FLoyd does. Let's just hope they can fight in May but either man could take it though Floyd should be the huge favorite.

    Instead of duck accusations, why don't fanboy stans contribute to this thread?

    I'm hoping that Floyd isn't this dominating.

    The last fight Floyd was intent on knocking him out,I think if he fights Pac he will walk him down,and at least give a dominant performance and go for the KO in the later rounds.

    Pac will get wreckless and it will play into Floyd's hand.. The only chance I give Pac is a heavy punch and he is able to follow it up..

    I think Manny has some success in the first 2-3 rounds, but as soon as Floyd figures him out, he will give him a boxing lesson!!

    I will be routing for Manny though :cool:

    I expect something slightly similar to Calzaghe - Hopkins
