    No, I don't care about my pick. It doesn't really mean anything. Whoever wins, wins. I wont boast, I probably won't even bring up my pick. I'll just be happy that I got my answer.

    I did man, but you know what happens when a fighter comes forward thinking they can walk Pacquiao down?

    Pacquiao takes offense to the idea and blitzes them, no exceptions, he turns fight or flight and he fights.

    Mayweather can't win the fight that way. If Floyd wins, it's on the backfoot in my humble opinion.

    Anyhow, I do agree with him that you can't use the Marquez template to predict a fight against Floyd and I hope his prediction comes true.

    I don't think he said Floyd would be successful with it, just that Floyd may use it.

    "Mayweather relies on pattern recognition and good timing to exploit his opponentÂ’s tendencies."

    A quote from the article. Pac throws the same punches/feints/combination a lot. How do you think Marquez figured him out? How do you think Marquez knew to throw that overhand right after Pac feinted the jab? Anyways, I think if Marquez can figure Pac out, and beat him in all of their fights, Floyd can too.

    by fighting him 4 times. and like he later said, marquez never beat pac beyond doubt besides the KO which was in a fight Marquez was losing.

    to be fair though, without the k/ds in teh first fight he would have won clear, and imo JMM won the third fight clear too

    Thought he clearly beat him in the third, and in the second had him edging it, even Nonito a fellow flip had MArquez winning.

    i don't know how people have marquez winning. pac performed poorly but he still outperformed him and compubox supports it.

    the third fight? or the first?

    I thought he won the third fight 8-4, but he took the last 4 rounds off and allowed it to be close enough for Pac to win.

    compubox doesn't always tell the full story :good. If that was the case, Marquez clearly beat Manny in the second even with the knockdown.

    Great break down, the guy made a fan of me, but we disagree. I think hes over****yzing and not seeing the bigger picture because of it. I will love to be wrong in this one though.

    Ive got Mayweather UD... we will see whos right.

    Great ****ysis though.
