    Oh damnit if this fight doesnt happen I will be livid.

    To me though I felt like pac-clottey, may-mosley, were cleverly disguised interim bouts, to try to spice it up May-Pac just a little more.

    I voted Mayweather by competitive decision but in reality I was caught in between FMJ by competitive decision & FMJ by wide decision.

    I feel that Mayweather will win decisively, bagging about 8 rds.... but Pacquiao will always be there making a fight right to the death of it bagging the odd rd himself.

    Pac COULD get frustrated when behind & abandon defense completely in order to try KO Mayweather & get himself KOd but my money says that he is tough enough & enough of a pure warrior that he hears the final bell.

    I expect a close first 6 rds but then Mayweather to pull away down the stretch as he figures Manny out & counters him silly for the majority of the fight.

    These 2 are the cream of boxing right now, miles ahead of whoever is in 3rd place... but I feel Mayweather is just head & shoulders above every fighter in the sport & has been for some time.

    :good

    Come on Cuba you dont believe that do you, for Mayweather to get knocked out late is as likely as Holyfield unifying the Heavyweight division.

    Like I said, I don't see Pac knocking Floyd clean out.

    I see it either going Pacquiao by late (maybe like the 7th round) TKO or Mayweather UD.

    There's no way Pac outboxes Floyd and I don't see Floyd stopping Pac, but hey, it could happen I guess...






    And BTW Holyfield KO 1 Vitali.

    Look I get it. I never once claimed mine was original, like I said it's up to you which one you want to give a **** more about, if any.

    Either way, thanks for voting :good

    Floyd will use his much better footwork to control the tempo of the fight and make it a boxing match..pac will try to get inside but floyds footwork will not leave much to choose from..floyd catches manny coming in late...stops him around the 9th or 10th..

    This fight will comedown to who can control the tempo of the fight and make it a "boxing match" (floyd) or a "fight" manny...ive seen both fight and floyds footwork is superior to pac's when it comes to ring generalship

    I agree. But May refreshed my memory when he calmley got buzzed by Shane's best shot's, regrouped then became the agressor and completely made Shane ineffective.

    Obviously Pac's workrate will beat Shane's ten-fold (I would assume), unless May finds a home as usualy with his surgical straight right, and his underrated body shot (your avatar is a prime example). But that is the wildcard of this one, can May slow down Pac's crazy workrate with accurate shots? I will say more than likely, yes.

    :yep

    Pac at this point seems to be an accumlation ko artist (baring hatton), but I say if pac doesn't do something dramatic within the first 4-5 rounds, I highly doubt a ko win for him will happen.

    If Pac does the same tactic more than one round in a row, Mayweather will figure it out, adjust, and make Pac meet his straight Right ALOT more than he wants to.

    I cant see pac getting a decision. I voted pac by KO/TKO while behind on the cards
    I think floyds adaptability is what will give pac the most problems, but I'm hoping that pac's relentless agression will weaken floyd as the fight wears on and he will be the first to beat floyd.
