    you asked what else pac has besides what ortiz has, which is a punchers chance. this implies that you think they stand equal chances against mayweather, which only an idiot or pac hater would think.

    so anyone who doesnt agree with you gets their feelings hurt? i dont care that pac has haters, you just take up a lotta space with it. it goes beyond rational debate into emotional involvement, which makes you asking me if my feelings are hurt, all the funnier.

    BOth have a punchers chance, but obviously if I'm picking Pac as number one then I don't think they stand equal. As I said pac has a greater set of tools which increases his punchers chance.

    Regardless he only has a punchers chance.

    Go in defensive mode when someone posts something you dont like, and you still haven't answered the question what else does pac have other then a punchers chance? He doesn't.

    pac has better defence, harder punch, faster feet, more experience against way better caliber of opponent, better corner, harder style to time, better chin, more money invested in him winning and recognition as the best fighter p4p on the planet.

    is that enough of a difference?

    I think Manny's lost a step but that's just me.

    I liked his chances in 2009..not 3 years later.

    I think Manny is the one fighter today that can beat Floyd by KO or by 12 rd decision @ 147. Manny has become smarter and savvier in the ring the last few years.
    He has the best offense of any southpaw in history and Floyd will be overwhelmed by his combination of power and speed just like everyone else that met him at the higher weights.

    Floyd showed kinks in the armor vs Judah and Mosley that Pac did not show vs anybody above lightweight. Manny is more active and has not lost quite the step Floyd did as he showed vs Mosley.

    You need stamina, power and speed to beat Floyd and Pacquiao is just that. Nobody else brings the speed and stamina along with power.

    Pac because hes a good finisher, so maybe he could pull off a KO in the early rounds. I dont expect him to be able to outwork mayweather over 12 though.

    Khan would get eaten alive on the inside by mayweather. PBF might loose some rounds on the outside but if that happens he would change it up and become the aggressor, similar to the zab fight. Khan has no inside game at all and bad defense and Mayweather is larger and stronger than him. He will stop khan.

    Ortiz is going to get schooled. New found mentality? He probably said "oh ****" everytime he got rocked by the green Berto. Don't get ahead of yourself just because he won a belt. Pac has the only chance of the three. Khan will probably hurt himself just coming into the ring with fear. Believe me, when Ortiz gets schooled or stopped, all the threads will be out saying he should not have been in the ring with PBF. Oh, PBF is not a small WW.

    Exactly. Why do you think Mayweather does everything he can to place obstacles on the fight? He doesn't do it to anyone else. He argues that PAC will be easy but avoids him like a disease.

    It maybe UD for M but it's speculation. Why would he come up with a non standard test against someone he would whip? He obviously has doubts. This was reinforced when his dad or uncle said PAC would kill him right now.
