    How can anybody pick Pac to beat Floyd ?? Styles make fights, its the golden rule, if Pac had a 5 inch reach advantage, if he had a great jab and a dynamite right hand then i'd pick Pac but he hasnt got any of these .. He's got speed and angles, but he's not going to be able to and any of these without taking counters off Floyd .. If Floyd was going in against a welter Hearns then Floyd would be in serious danger but Pac aint no Hearns. Hearns would knock out Pac in 2 or 3 rounds .. Don Curry would deal with Pac in 5 rounds, and i actually think a prime Curry would take out Floyd in 8 or 9 .... I think mainly because Floyd and Pac arent really Welterweights. They are comfortable in this division because there are no dangerous 'sharks' in the division, if there were, you'd see Floyd at 140 and Pac at 135, their only brave because there are no real dangerous 'punchers' in the division ..

    MAyweather would go on the defensive, i think he'd start panicking !!

    If he was seriously hurt i think he'd start getting erratic, because hes never been hurt before......

    yeah it's a myth.

    only time he's had problems is with effective aggression.

    but u can't take too many chances like hatton and chavez did.

    otherwise he works u over. :!:

    wouldn't go that far.

    he was doing ok for 5 rds.

    holding his own.

    hatton puts pressure on.

    that's the way he fights.

    he's had a damn good career using that style to.

    one of the best pressure fighters of the 00's. :good

    Floyd knows how a fight is going, he knows if he is ahead or if he is behind, all the great fighters know how a fight is going .. Floyd v Oscar was a ridiculous split decision, Floyd was winning all the way in that fight .. Manny's engine maybe his downfall against Floyd, he'll just keep coming forward, Floyd is so comfortable backing up that it'll be easy for him .. And all you idiots comparing this Pac fight to the Castillo fight, take it from me, Castillo was a brilliant Lightweight, one of the very best of all time at his best. Its easy to criticise a guy like Castillo and big up a guy like Pac in 2009 knowing that Castillo is done and Pac is the name of the moment .... Floyd is on a totally different level of 'Boxing' than Pac and he's going to put on a show .....

    Some of you guys dont seem to have a boxing education, as simply as i can put it, Pre Tyson was were the real fighters hung out, before Tyson, Boxing was a real sport were it was the most respected sport in the world .. After Tyson it turned into a WWF circus were average-good fighters were hyped and 'sold to the public' as if they were as good as the fighters before them .. There are certain fighters that can be classed with the fighters of the past, but only a select few, they are, Pernell Whitaker, Roy Jones, Ricardo Lopez, Erik Morales, Evander Holyfield, Floyd Mayweather .....

    I know alot of you will mention obscure Thai fighters or Japanese fighters but nobody is fooled, if they didnt do it on the big stage, in America against top rank opposition then theres doubts .. Alot of you will doubt my inclusion of Morales but he electrified anybody who ever witnessed him fight .... Anybody who doubts Holyfield is an absolute joke as far as im concerned, Evander is easily the best heavy since Holmes, for anybody who knows anything about boxing that is a cast iron fact .. The Tyson and Lewis fans are a product of social programming, Holyfield at his best wasnt consistent but he would of beaten Lewis and Tyson at their very best ....... Thats a fact ..

    Holyfield v Tyson
    Holyfield v Dokes
    Holyfield v Bowe 1
    Holyfield v Bowe 2
    Holyfield v Qawwi (Cruiser)
    Holyfield v Moorer 2
    Holyfield v Mercer

    are 6 of the very best Heavyweight fights you will ever see .. Tyson couldnt take punches, and Lewis got knocked out by 2 of the biggest bums in heavyweight history, McCall and Rahman ..... The way Holyfield beat up Tyson and then stopped him was the most beautiful thing in boxing, nobody gave Evander a chance but he faced up to the 'supposed' iron man and destroyed him, my personal favourite boxing memory ....

    Tyson fans are so irritating, and their usually 12 years old who know nothing ..........

    Yeah he'll run, and pick off Pac all the way before he knocks him out, probably around the 10 th round ..... Floyd is the heir apparent to Roy Jones and Ray Leonard ..... 'Come Forward' fighters like Pac are 'Easy Meat' to these artists .... Its time people put their prejudice to one side and appreciate Floyd Mayweather for what he is .. There might not be another Floyd Mayweather for 20-30 years .... As a humble student of boxing i realise 'True Class', some of the bums on here dont have a clue, they sound like 10 year olds who have watched 10 fights ......

    Boxing is a sport were you need experience to have an opinion ...... Its no good watching a few fights and then mouthing off .. If you dont have at least 15 years experience in the sport, if you dont read books about the history of the sport, then your opinion counts for nothing, and you know **** as far as im concerned .... Stick to football 'Topdog' ....
