i say pbf wins by UD, pac has more skill than hatton he's not going to do what hatton did to have himself KOed.. the only type of fighters i would favor against pbf is if it is jmm(same size though), hearns, leonard
Ever see the unofficial weigh ins by HBO? Mayweather hasen't weighed over 150 except for the DLH fight.
Floyd UD, but going back to 140 would weaken him. He's been used to fighting as a WW now, and it's always tougher to go down than up after your body's used to fighting with the extra weight.
No, but he also hasn't had to make 140 either. Floyd doesn't put on much weight between fights, so what's there on fight night is usually there all the time- meaning his body's used to carrying the extra muscle. It's not the same as if he drained to 140 and just put the 7-9 pounds back on as water weight. The weights on fight night may be the same on paper, but a fighter like Floyd will actually be stronger at 147 for not having to cut the weight because it'd be impossible for him to do it now without losing muscle.
I feel Floyd has settled at 147 already. Getting back down would really take something out of him regardless of how talented he is. And looking at PBF's physique, he loks like a guy who doesn't have too much fat to burn. When you drop down a lot of weight, you start to burn muscle, which really isn't going to help you on the fight. And Pac isn't considered p4p for no reason. He's definitely capable of beating Floyd. I'd pick Pac by razor close decision.
