Official Prediction Thread: Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Manny Pacquiao

BOLD prediction.

But how did you come to this conclusion?

:think

 

The question we should all ask ourselves is 'if you had to put your house on it'.

Therefore you have to go Floyd and pretty wide.

Here is how it breaks down.

1. Manny isnt that great at closing off the ring, we have seen that against JMM, Bradley and if you really look at it, the second half of the Cotto fight.

2. The punch that puts Floyd on the defensive is the jab. And a long hard jab at that.

3. They have both slowed a bit , but that suits Floyd more.

When all said and done it will be a great 24 7 , all access , but the fight will be a very wide UD for Floyd , who will sit back wait to see what Manny does and counter, counter, counter.

 

Pac UD maybe TKO


:hat

 

Also predict the fight doesnt live up to the hype kind of like DLH vs Tito.... only thing is floyd will be doing the running instead of DLH


:hat

 

Was looking at ESPN picks, Most of them seem genuine, but Campbell says pac by decision, when if you follow his chat, he's always favored floyd in this matchup, or at leas implied floyd wins handily.

I guess they have to 'first take' this thing as well, aka skip v's smith, to help promote and cover the fight for fans, and both sides. Whomever Rafael takes, Campbell has to take the other side for this fight.
Irks me when ESPN, pulls this Fox News type ****, just to appease both sides, and cover both fanbases.

 

Same boat as you, I hope Im wrong as I was, and I was a fan of his when I made these picks against him v's Barrera, Oscar, and even against cotto I thought it was close 50/50, but barely gave the edge to pac... Didn't see the beat down coming like that.

 

You are either extremely naïve or a member of TMT:rofl

 

Endless hours inside a lab, in deep contemplation on different formulas and equations, experimenting on dogs,cats and rodents until I came up with an outcome of what can possibly happen on May 2nd.

 

Since when does Fox News care about the other sides point of view, they only cover one angle.


:hat

 

Out of retirement I come, Floyd UD 12 as always. Safest bet in sports.

 

Lol good point, bad example, I guess I meant telling people what they want to hear, appeasing their audience with what they want to hear.

I thought about that too... But was too tired to think of a better ****ogy.

 

It's gonna be a draw. Boxing is corrupt.

 

I don't trust the nsac, one bit, and I'm not sure how they are involved in the judging, if they are. That said, enigma brings up some good examples, and also it would favor them to have pac win, therefore a possible rematch in Vegas.

Who picks the judges anyway ?

 

I don't usually vote in my own polls, Rummy.

Now, what's your excuse ?


How does this play out ?

 

Floyd tko 10.
