    Power: Pac

    Accuracy: PBF

    Speed: draw

    Ring Intelligence: PBF

    Adaptability: PBF

    Defense: PBF

    Inside Work: PBF

    Chin: Pac

    Stamina: Pac

    Trainer: Pac

    Footwork: PBF

    Heart: Pac

    Ring Generalship: draw (this depends on judges, and while Mayweather is more of an adapting ring general, Pac effectivley comes forward and imposes)

    Intangibles: Pac

    Ring IQ: This is the same as ring intelligence no?

    Prediction: How the heck do I know! Uhm, I think it goes to the cards and it's close.

    Thinking about Pac, it is true that he doesnt adapt. Is main game is good enough to beat ass though. Most guys dont give you movement or counter punching for 12 rounds and he stays on his game all 12. But its hard to guage pac when we have truly never seen him in with a mover rather than guys who come forward in his kill zone.

    Ps. the ?????s are because FMJs chin or heart have never been tested to the full so you cant fault or praise them, Pac`s is top notch but we dont know for sure if they are better than FMJs.

    Both guys have the best stamina in boxing because they work the hardest... thats why they are the cream.... both recieve an A+ in this category.

    I still cant work out who is faster either, nothing between them, Pac likely punches faster in combination but Floyd punches faster throwing one single shot, tough call.

    Cant wait for this fight :happy

    i think floyd has more advantages than pac when put to that much detail- but all in all i think there is only a few catergories that count:

    power: Pac
    speed: even
    skill: floyd
    balls: pac
    intelligence: floyd

    all the other stuff im not so sure contributes. like how can intangibles be given as much weight as power.

    even money fight imho.

    Power: pac, although pbf might be underrated in this category because he doesnt put that much emphasis on putting power behind his punches as much as pac does. he just settles for points.

    Accuracy: floyd

    Speed: pac

    Ring Intelligence: floyd

    Adaptability: tied... pac has also proven that the can adapt at a higher level after that cotto fight.. but if i have to pick one, floyd's the smarter choice

    Defense: floyd

    Inside Work: pac

    Chin: pac

    Stamina: pac but pbf's style conserves a lot of energy so it's kinda hard to pick. but overall it must be pac (i guess if they go all out, pbf is the first one thats going to gas out).

    Trainer: pac

    Footwork: pbf

    Heart: pac

    Intangibles: pac

    Prediction: pac by mid TKO

    btw, heart should be considered part of the intangibles right?

    Styles make fights and Pac is the wrong style for Void. Void refused to fight Pac for a very good reason.
