    he fights pac?:think

    If Mayweather's attacker is relentless then Mayweather will become moar aggressive himself. If he can cruise to an easy UD, then he will.

    Do you see emmanuel folding mentally to the point where $ can just take his easy UD, or do you think he'll keep rushing Floyd like Hatton did to get knocked the **** out?

    A) Can emmanuel's skill set even come close to Floyd's, so he can be competitive and get knocked out?

    B) Will emmanuel's heart still be there against $?

    C) How much does $ want to physically AZZault emmanuel for being a punk all throughout negotiations?

    Now about point B, remember even Marquez who had the heart to go life and death w/ emmanuel lost his confidence against Floyd. Mosley who arguably never cherry picked or ducked **** folded vs $.

    Will it be a cruise control to UD for PBF, or an earned KO?:think

    I've said all along this fight will closely resemble Mayweather vs Marquez why these *******s are so delusional is beyond me. Stylistically Mayweather is a total nightmare for Manny, he's waayy too much!

    Depending on the odds, I'd place a large bet on Floyd by UD, as he'd probably be the odds favorite by decision. If Pacquiao is a large enough underdog for KO, I'd hedge my large bet with a bet that would cover both.

    I did this with Mayweather-Mosley & my lesser-paying outcome would have still been a net profit. The only way I could have lost both bets in that fight is if Floyd would have won by KO or SD, if Mosley would have won by any decision, or if it would have ended in a draw. Since I didn't think any of those outcomes were as likely as a Floyd UD or Mosley suprise KO, I was confident in the strategy.

    The last time I mentioned hedging, 2 ******s came out of the woodworks to dispute the validity of hedging (& the underlying principle of risk management).

    But this is boring most of you, isn't it? :tired

    I'd personally place a bet on him to just win. He goes to the cards a lot, but I could see him stopping Manny.

    EFG doesn't belong here...lol.

    Manny has never lost heart.Ever.Ever ever.So i don't think it would happen during a fight against Mayweather. He'd go til he was knocked out or stopped. I still see a lot of intangibles.Manny fights differently every fight.Depending on how Freddie "programs" him.I'm still waiting on my copy of his fight with Clottey to get to my ship so I haven't seen that yet but i heard it was frustrating to watch.

    I agree. Which is why he'll likely get knocked out.

    I think the odds on Mayweather by TKO will be very respectable and I plan on putting a few bucks on it. Immense heart like that of Hatton who kept coming forward despite getting figured out leads to a evening ending head first dive into a turnbuckle.

    Floyd TKO 10.

    Why do you keep calling him Emmanuel? Not like it matters, I dunno if thats some form of insult..?

    It just seems like a load of hassle, pac is much shorter and quicker to type...

    Freddie Roach would have the perfect game plan to beat Mayweather.

    hard to bet against pac this days
    If they do fight, I think I'll go with Pacqiuao knockout. Mosley started something in the second round, but he couldn't finish it. Pac would. He's a much better finisher. But I honestly have no idea as they are both great great fighters.
    How about Pac vs mosley.. That'd be an awesome fight.

    The odds for a Floyd KO will be enticing enough to take them. And considering Manny's agressiveness, I think by the late rounds he will be frustrated and swinging for the fences which usually spells KO for a good counterpuncher who is physicaly bigger and stronger.

    I'm going to put around $250 on PBF by TKO and around $1000 on PBF by UD

    Seriously though, Zatoichi, after this Burton/Augustus fight, no1 should've been doubting Floyd's heart. That said, this was before "Pretty Boy" morphed into "Money May". Personally, I found him more likable as "Apollo Creed" instead of "Clubber Lang", even though I think Mr. T > Carl Weathers.
