    Your people's champ, warrior hearted idol, ducked Mosley(asked him to fight at 142) and decided to go and fight Clottey. Also, he turned down the fight with Floyd on March even when Floyd agreed to all of his demands... And now all of a sudden because he is not afraid of needles anymore he starts saying he wants the fight?

    If your warrior and big hearted champ really wanted to show how good and clean he really is he should've step up to the plate on March.

    This fight will happen. We just have to be patient. This is all a publicity stunt by Floyd to hype it and make even more money.

    well you know thats what people typically do around here. a big money fight like paqcuaio is the sole reason why mayweather came out of retirement in the first place

    Reach: Your right about reach advantage but thats if the other fighter is not using it correctly but were talking about Floyd here....that reach advantage will be magnified big time.

    Ring IQ: Pac in his own right has solid IQ in the ring however Floyd is something different because he is so methodical in all he does in the ring...its like he says its a chess game in the ring...while i know Pac has a good IQ i do not believe he can out think Floyd in the ring.

    Speed: both fighters are on par with each other Pac has faster combo speed but i believe Floyd has faster one punch speed although still not that much faster tha Pac so i guess Pac has a slight advantage.

    Footwork: Again both use exceptional footwork however Manny with his awkward style often times throws off balance and feet off the ground...he could pay for those mistakes against Floyd.

    Defense: Floyd and really no comparison...even when in his defensive posture he is dangerous because he is so crafty.

    For me and not taking anything away from Pac a hell of a fighter....Floyd is just better....i look for him to stop Pac in the later rounds. However i think the early rounds could be Pac's best chance to get Floyd out of there because thats when i believe Floyd is most vulnerable....rounds 1-4....and if there is any fighter to do it...Pac is the one.

    Well said. I also see a stopage in the later rounds, and if he doesn't stop him, I'm pretty sure he will atleast score a knockdown on Pac.
