    No that's bull**** and you know it.Pac's victory is greater he will be winning a lineal championship and taking the number 1 p4p sport yet again he is also a unde rdog.

    Its not unfair see this is why I take issue with alex why can't you bring yourself to admit pac's win would be greater.

    oyea he will also be the first to win 5 lineal championships in 5 weight classes

    It's unfair because you're giving more credit to Pacquiao for a victory than you would give to Floyd for the victory. You're refusing to give Mayweather credit. Pacquiao does not deserve more credit than Floyd. That's where you're biased, Pac being the underdog is irrelevant in this regard.

    The fight hasn't even happened yet and you're already refusing to give Floyd credit, should he win. Be fair.

    5 years ago I said floyd would dominate. Now though I'm not so sure, Floyd has shown definite signs of slowing down and getting close to being washed up. Its just facing bums like Maidana etc its not hard to run and look good from even with floyds diminishing skills. Pac is not a guy you're going to get away with that **** though, he's also slowing down but I think he wants this more than FLoyd does.

    You know as well as I do that pac winning is far greater because he seen as the underdog and what he has been through and what he can win..... if Floyd took the fight in 09 whoever won would be be seen the same pac was p4p 1 at time.

    You can not deny pac winning is far far greater now than Floyd winning.

    It was floyd's own mouth that suggested that he "cherry" picked pac this time because the "timing is just right" and floyd "saw some changes in pac". Why are the joyboys mad at floyd's own admission?

    You sure it's not mind games? Like you said when Roach commented on Pac's opponents.

    So if Floyd insults Manny that means he's scared and ducking? How did he ever manage to fight Gatti, Hoya, Hatton, or Mosley cause he insulted them nonstop?

    If Manny beats Floyd I would be shocked and in a state of disbelief. I'd then gather my thoughts and emotions and give Manny credit for achieving the unthinkable. When examining the fight I see no way for Manny to win, Floyd got him beat in almost every category except power. I've always felt Floyd would beat Pac, even when Manny was at his best. Both guys have diminished over time but I still see Floyd as being the greater, smarter, more adaptable fighter. Manny is not shot (as some are now saying) he is just not as good as Floyd. If Pac wins I will be very ... very surprised. I have never felt Floyd would lose any fight since I watched him against Chico all those years ago. That to me was an unbeatable fighter, perfect form, perfect boxing, mastery of skills,...ain't nothing changed!

    Maybe a couple of irrational posters have called it a cherry pick but the majority of Pacquiao fans are happy this is finally going down.

    I just wonder why is Floyd never called a cherrypick? It seems like only Floyd can pick "cherries", every other fighter in boxing I guess only fights Triple A opponents

    Floyd has fought the odd fighter that was way out of his league and so has Pacquiao, but to say this fight is a cherry pick is absurd! Whoever said that DKSAB.
