    hmm... 53% Floyd, 47% Manny.

    I think Manny wins by SD... Initially i thought KO or UD but leaning towards SD. At least one judge will reward the more defensive, less active fighter who ends up with less landed but 2 judges will score it right for Pacquiao.

    I just don't see Floyd winning by decision, has to be TKO or KO. Manny is quicker, is more busy and will throw and land more. Floyd has to really hurt him to win... he needs the stoppage.

    Theres now 12 Manny votes for every 13 Floyd votes.

    Predictions are getting closer.

    I think Floyd has more going for him. A large ring, Bayless,the judges, Pacquiao's over agressiveness and Floyd's quick and stinging counter punches will all favor Floyd. Of course, Pacquiao has proved me wrong so no big surprise if he pulls it off or even dominates. However, if I take a pick it would be a Floyd UD.

    what's interesting about this fight is that nothing would really be that surprising. It's unpredictable

    Floyd via UD. He is just too cerebral and refined a boxer.

    I can also see him scoring a TKO in the 11th but a UD is more likely.

    Hoping for that special night once again where Pacquiao demolished Barrera and dela Hoya..or Floyds age will finally show up like Leonard vs. Norris.. But on a normal day i see Floyd winning by unanimous decision.

    I'm still hanging on to Floyd, but on a thread. I keep seeing more ways that Manny could win than Floyd. This is really tough.

    His unusual movement will be a puzzle for Floyd for a while.

    I think Floyd will adapt.

    It then becomes a matter of how long it takes to adapt.
