    Pac v Mayweather together in the ring - Mayweather may just be too big and too strong. But would that really decide the best P4P?

    What are the guys best weights?

    Mayweather - 147?
    Pacman say - 135?

    If size wasn't at issue would the Pacman's speed get through the Pretty Boy's defence?

    It doesn't settle anything in my opinion. Don't get me wrong, if they were to fight, and PBF were to win, I guess I'd have to put PBF top.

    But if Pac were to continue fighting and have many great wins, and PBF were to sit on the position, I'd have to put Pac top again. Also, regardless of size, Pac will struggle to land on PBF.

    I like Floyd in this one, but, I think Pac will make it very interesting, indeed.

    No.
    P4P is maintained greatness & can't be acquired thru one fight.
    Manny Pacquaio had to earn his spot thru war's & proving himself against
    the very best his weight class had to offer & beyond.

    People said De La Hoya would be too big and strong for Pacquiao, they also said Hatton would as well. Neither of them could out muscle him, if they cannot do it then Mayweather definately can't, not that he will even try to out muscle him. Mayweather will try and stay away from Pacquiao and keep him away with the jab but you can't do that to Pacquiao. Pacquiao will stop Mayweather.

    pac is the best fighter that mayweather has ever faced. you could say the same for pac. pac can match his speed of foot and hand, how is mayweather going to keep him off for the whole fight. at some stage they are going to fight and pac will train like a deamon for this fight.
