    I think it will be a closed sd for Pacman. I see Floyd making Pac look foolish at times but not doing enough to win most of the rounds.

    Don't rate his resume.

    Benitez was an awesome defensive fighter because he fught some awesome offensive fighters.

    Floyds shoulder roll WILL NOT WORK against Pac. IMO :good

    Pacquiao will beat Mayweather when/if they meet. Floyd will be terrified of getting caught with a powerpunch and thus being either visibly hurt or dropped in full view of the world's media, so he will fight from inside an overly defensive shell and will be outworked and outhustled. UD Pac, because Floyd does not have the necessary warrior's mentality to engage him. For me, it would be the biggest fight since Whitaker-Chavez in '93.

    Well, Mayweather doesn't have a decisive footspeed advantage in this one, which means he can't just rely on outmaneuvring Pacquiao the whole night. He isn't DLH! One of the subtle things Pacquiao does extraordinarily well is getting off while on the move or at an angle, which makes it even harder to starve his work rate unless you just resort to running (Cotto) and guarantee a boring loss.
