    Floyd would pick Pac apart in my opinion. Pac is a great fighter no doubt but has shown he is very easy to hit. He'll throw often miss and pay the price against Floyd Mayweather. I feel Floyd is the perfect foil for Pac-man.

    I have seen pictures of Hagler standing next to Oscar and Oscar looks bigger, but Oscar is not a middle wieght and Hagler was not a light weight. Pacman is not a WW, not even now, he has only gone there to fight the best.

    I do not suspect Pacman of any thing and do not see why he should bow down to Floyd. He is tested just like everyone else. Why should he be tested in one way when eveyone else gets tested in another way?

    Does Floyd use a type of steriod for his hands that is banned in all states apart from NV?

    Yes but where would it stop?, would Floyd come up with new tests? , in for a penny in for a pound.

    If Pacman did all the tests and passed would Floyd and his team come out and tell everyone that Pacman is clean and that they were wrong or would they just say that he has found a way to beat the system or some thing of that nature?

    There seems no end to the BS from the Floyd team, so they would always have some crap to spew. BUT if Pac accepted the Olympic protocoll (that should be mandatory in boxing anyway IMO) no one with half a sense could have anything to object. And, more importantly, the fight would have happened.

    I think that the fight could still happen, if they don't fight then every ony loses.

    Floyd needs Pacman more than Pacman needs Floyd though. It would be a pitty if Pacman does not do the test and it affects his ATG ranking or some thing like that.

    Not sure that I agree with this.

    Floyd has proven to be as big a draw as is Pacquiao. And other than Floyd, who is Manny going to fight? Berto? A 140lb'er? Zab Judah?

    Who?

    very easy? wow its pretty ****en obvious Pacquiao threw his defense against clottey because he wanted the man to take free shots at hims just so he could make the fight less boring lol. Same goes for cotto, he abandoned his defense cause he kne cotto couldn't hurt him and he just basically chased him all around the ring, but if pac wanted to be elusive and if he'd wanted to play defense, man he'd be one of the hardest targets to find in the ring

    I meant legacy for than money wise and the fact that Pacman already beat Cotto and Clottley in his first two WW bouts.

    Bull****. Pac has never been a defensive wizard. He is an offensive beast but dont try and tell people that if he wanted to he could be one of the hardest targets to find in the ring.

    Well, so far, Pacquiao's legacy @ 140-147 pounds has been fighting Floyd/Margarito/Cotto leftovers and KO victims.
