    Pac stops Floyd late, IMO. I know they're both gym rats but Pac is in better condition and Mayweather, (I SPECULATE, YES SPECULATE) isn't working as hard as he is. His body isn't growing anymore, he's having trouble making weight because he isn't working as hard. That's my opinion. I think it's pretty even going down the stretch and because Floyd can't dictate tempo to a guy like Pac who is both unorthodox and almost impervious to fatigue, he is forced to fight more than usual and he gasses and gets stopped late.

    Well Clottey stopped over 75 percent of those and he barely moved. Try that against a better counter puncher, faster fighter with much better defense built around AVOIDING contact. Manny has yet to face a fighter like that. Either they brawl with him and lose or stand around and get their arms beat on for 12 rounds. Floyd doesn't fit either category

    True. Which is why I believe Floyd will be Manny's new JMM. It will be the toughest fight of his career since JMM. He will be bruised and his eyes swollen but he has more the heart of a champion than Mayweather is. He is a lot smarter and multi-dimensional now. So he'll win in the end.

    If pac cant stop mayweather, this would be an SD, not sure who gets the W tho. Pac's relentless workrate vs May's defensive prowess. I see pac getting flush shots from floyd but in return pac catches floyd with combos, floyd's lead right vs pac's straight left. Or just like pac-marquez2, but floyd's reach and height will play a crucial role with this one.

    Pacquiao by late TKO.

    I used to think that Mayweather would take it, but then after a couple of pac's fights I could see Pac's relentless pressure and workrate is just too much.

    Good post....If Floyd is successfully in dicatating the pace and distance he'll beat manny. Even if he creates the distance or space while Manny controls the pace....Floyd could still win by being more accurate and landing the cleaner punches.

    It won't be easy for either man from what I can tell....I just think Floyd's comfort zone is going to put him in a situation where he's gonna have his hardest time adapting b/c of Manny style and match in the talent and ability depts.

    I also agree PAUL is the man MOST capable and likely to dethrone Floyd. His physical demensions are great and along with his Manny like work rate or even more.....he'll spell all kinds of problems for Floyd. I still feel Manny will out work Floyd over 12 and win a clear Decsion should it come off..
