The greatest trick Floyd ever pulled was convincing us he can lose to Pacquiao

    Those are almost my exact thoughts BigBone. I don't think he's that smart though, he's just not embarrassed to do it like most would be. Cause it's embarrassing.

    By waiting around, not fighting the top welter guys, and letting Pac do all the work. Is that too difficult to understand?

    He's doing what the public and media are demanding? O that's why he fought Mosley, Margarito, Cotto, etc. I see.

    Do all the work? Pacquiao beat one guy. It's funny how Floyd all of sudden has never fought any top welters despite being a former linear champ and despite beating the past two linear WW champs before him.

    There was never a high demand for any of those fights, that's what you guys don't understand. If there was such a high demand for a fight with Mosley, why did Mosley turn the fight down when Floyd wanted to fight him? Why did Arum make zero effort to put Cotto in there with Floyd? Arum bent over backward to make the Pac/Mayweather fight, yet he made no effort to put Cotto in there with Floyd. What does that tell you?

    *******s aint stupid like you....though we are big pacquiao fans, we know that the odds are stocked against him, and this would be very very difficult fight for pac because of the advantages floyd has as bigbone stated...

    but do i think floyd cherrypicked pac? NO!!! this is boxing, its normal in this sport that some fighter has alot of advantages against a certain opponent...but that doesnt change the fact that pac will be the underdog here..

    Nobody has convinced me that Floyd will lose to Manny, not Roach, not Pacman, not Arum & especially not Floyd.

    Ive never heard Floyd say Pac has a chance, Ive heard him say that Pac has been built up & hyped as the man that could beat Mayweather but FMJ says he will beat Pac easy, maybe even easier than he beat Marquez - of course, I dont believe that in a million yrs, Pac is much better up at the high weights than Marquez.

    Ive ALWAYS said Floyd will beat Manny & I wont be changing my mind.

    Pac is taking a bigger risk in fighting Floyd than Floyd has in any of his fights.

    Nazim is brilliant and he makes me want to see Mosley vs Pac.

    But this is another area where I think PBF has an advantage over previous Pac opponents, the last 3 guys all thought they would get an easy KO over pac due to size, they had no real strategy. DLH and Cotto are notorious for fading down the stretch.

    PBF doesnt look for the KO, he plans on a 12 round decision and he has great stamina/conditioning. He plants to use counterpunching and movement to win, he is not depending on his size or looking to brawl with Pac which is where the other guys failed. He can fight going forward or backward, inside or outside, he can do it all.

    This fight is much harder for Pac than the others, he has a chance on winning by higher work rate but he aint going to dominate or KO mayweather.
