    BT: How do you see the Floyd Mayweather, Jr Vs Manny Pacquiao fight playing out if it ever happens?


    NB: I’m inclined to pick Pacquiao because he’s the type of fighter that creates spectacular fights, he does not compromise to be spectacular, and also due to what I saw Shane Mosley do to Mayweather in the second round of their fight. I think it will be a spectacular, high tension fight; Pacquiao has very fast hands and hits very hard – great tools to have. Meanwhile Mayweather is always on the defensive and always takes the safest route, always short of spectacular. In that regard I don’t give Mayweather much credit. Sure he wins, but at what cost? For the people that pay for expensive tickets, it seems they are being shortchanged. He gives great lessons in boxing; no one will argue that, but very little spectacle and excitement.

    So, he picks someone because he swings his arms like a video game character? What level of education does this idiot have? Yet again, people still talking about Shane, Floyd in the second round. Pacquaio doesn't punch harder than Shane and again, people are attesting to Floyd's greatness because its a big deal when Floyd gets hit like that. Nobody talks about Shane's head moving like a speed bag throughout the fight and getting thoroughly dominated.

    Something must be wrong with me today..

    At first glance of the thread title, I kinda gasped a bit and thought for a split second that something bad had happened to Nacho and someone's breaking the news here.

    Freaky.

    Are the text/words about "because of round2 of Mosley fight" invisible ?

    Notice how Beristain brought up not being able to use Reyes gloves as an excuse for JMM losing the fight to Chris John.

    he picks pacquiao because he is more exciting? and because mayweather was hurt in the 2nd round?

    makes sense.

    It doesn't sound like he is even thinking about what he is saying. Did he say that he thinks that Manny will win because he is more exciting than Floyd? And that Floyd shortchanges the fans? He must not care to really think about the fight if he is saying those things as his reasons.

    It seems to me that he doesn't really care, and is bullshitting his way through the interview. No way a guy that smart, and experienced, puts up that weak argument.

    Great Analysis by the future HoF.

    DLH beat Whitaker by being more exciting, and this fight has the makings of it too. Leave to the real professionals to pick match-ups and not no keyboard warriors.
