    Sergio doesnt need one. Sergio just needs to be Sergio. Thats it. A gameplan against Mayweather is redundant at this point. Fighters worried about a gameplan is why Floyd is 41-0. The thought of a gameplan against Floyd is even more laughable when we think about history...Jose Luis Castillo didnt care about the big name in front of him, he didn't give a **** about a gameplan, he went into the ring and decided "I'm good enough to beat this man just by being myself." He was, and he did. Then he got robbed, but you see my point. Sergio is the kind of fighter with that rare, supreme, mental conditioning.

    i agree.

    nobody will outbox floyd so you have to be a natural foil and give it a crack. that's it.

    but you have to be an aggressive puncher for this to work.

    Sergio ALWAYS outlands his opponents. Even Williams:deal

    I have said since it was even discussed that I pick Sergio to beat him.

    I'm not saying this as a hater, as I pick May to beat Pac.

    I think Martinez is a guy capable of beating both, but I just wish Martinez, Williams, Floyd, and Pacquiao could all fight each other to make it a Fab Four like the 80's. They all need to fight each other and make a tournament or some badly needed superfights.

    I would give Williams a better shot at beating him.

    i said no-one will outbox him. that's different to fighting - and that's why people want to see floyd against pacman....

    fighter against a boxer at heart because pac will revert to bullying for that fight.

    *****s have to accept that Floyds been beaten by OLDH, Spad, Martin Castllo twice, a few other mexicans and euros, not to mention Luiz Castillo once, then a draw.

    The only man capable of beating Mayweather now, is the man that plays possum and acts like he's a finished fighter with limited skills, because Mayweather will only continue to cherry pick.

    :happy Great analogy. Doesn't necessarily have to be someone as skillful as Floyd because there probably isn't anyone, but apply the talent that the fighter has to it's fullest. In the first fight, Castillo was the better fighter. In the second, Floyd was the better fighter. Period.

    Martinez would be the easiest one for him compared to pac and Williams.

    Floyd is better than sergio in nearly every department so just being himself aint gonna cut it. Mayweather is faster and more skilled. Martinez has a size advantage but he will definately need to exploit some mayweather habits going into the fight. I just dont think sergio has the style to beat mayweather. With regards to castillo. Mayweather is better know than he was then in that he is smarter, plus floyd was injured in the first fight.

    Good fighter is Martinez, but Williams was catching quite a bit,
    now Id imagine Floyd would have a field day with lead right hands.

    Pac is the only guy capable of beating Floyd.
    As much as his fans irritate everyone, there is no denying that Pac
    has all the right tools to match it.
    Quick footwork, quick hands, in and out movement, high work rate,
    the list goes on, it would be a great fight if they ever get it on.

    Alot of Pacs traits and the way he fights, could possibly cause Floyd
    to have to open up and trade, with Pacs in and out movement,
    quick hands and footwork, he could break through Mayweather defence
    and catch him when he retreated.

    Im a Floyd fan, but theres no denying Pac is the man as far as challengers go.
