    Im not saying Floyd will bomb him out of there and stop him like Garcia, just that he will start timing Khan and work him out.

    Pacquiao gives Mayweather his toughest fight. Here's why(of course it's been discussed a billion times before):

    -Awkward in and out motion
    -Southpaw
    -Pacquiao would be Mayweather's fastest opponent since Judah
    -Pacquiao has very fast feet and will close the distance quickly
    -Pacquiao won't let Mayweayther think
    -Offensive is nearly unpredictable
    -Counter punching ability
    -Pacquiao can land meaningful shots with very little space
    -Pacquiao doesn't have to be in perfect position to throw punches, often times he is off balance, and he still manages to throw 1 or 2 punches
    -Pacquiao is not burdened with remaining undefeated. He will throw caution in to the wind.
    -Pacquiao has the mental edge because he has always wanted the fight, except for when the blood testing was brought up. Even then I think it was Bob Arum whom was trying to negate the fight. Pacquaio seems to be the type of fighter that really will fight anyone, at any time, although he is carefully matched by Roach and Arum, i.e. "Shane is too good", "De La Hoya was drained", Cotto at a catch weight, Margarito at a catch weight, Shane when he looks beatable.

    Floyd will be Pacquiao's toughest opponent because:

    -He has the best timing in the game
    -Best Footwork in the game
    -Floyd is very fast and would be Pacquiao's fastest opponent
    -Extremely difficult to time
    -Floyd's rhythm is always changing(Floyd is usually said to be textbook, but this is his most unorthodox trait)
    -Lead right hands
    -Longer reach
    -He has a will to win
    -Floyd knows how to control pace
    -Floyd is the fresher fighter although older
    -He is the defensive master of his generation
    -Floyd's mental edge will be knowing he is undefeated against great opposition
    -Floyd is undefeated, and it means something. He really has fought the best available opposition given his fall out with Arum. People seem to forget that most of the guys that people claim floyd ducked were Arum fighters. Although, I do think Floyd never wanted the Pacquiao fight, a ton of money to be made not fighting his most dangerous opponent(neither did Arum, he got to keep milking his cash cow with a sense of invincibility).

    Pacquiao, even today, is the best opponent available for Floyd. It's really sad that fans are so divided on these two, so much so that they spend all their free time shitting on their records. The truth is, these are the 2 best fighters of this generation, and how you rank them ATG, is ultimately about personal preference. Both have made history, and both, like many ATG's have asterisk next to their names. There are always guys they should've, or could've fought. There are always guys that fans will claim would have beat them, i.e. Chris John, Margarito, Tsyzu, Mosley 2009, De La Hoya 154.

    At the end of the day, most of those fights like Mayweather vs Pacquiao, didn't happen because of the business side of boxing. It's the gift and the curse.

    I hate fights like Mayweather vs Guerrero, or Pacquiao vs Rios as much as the next fan, they suck. Neither one of these fighters will be in the ring for much longer, and that's the best they offer us. Mayweather vs Pacquiao needs to happen. Fans need it, and Boxing history needs it.

    Respect to you if you wrote all that yourself

    But im afraid no. Pacquiao doesnt have the remotest chance of beating Mayweather. He never did, and especially now post KO6

    GGG would beat Floyd. But Floyd dont want none of det

    Well, I think Pacquiao gives him his toughest fight out of anyone at a weight class that he actually campaigns at. Not Garcia, Bradley, Provo, Maidana, Thurman, Khan, etc.

    Void knows that he might lose to Pac which is the reason he refuses to fight! Pac would be, by far, Void's biggest fight and payday.

    IF PAC WERE SUCH AN EASY FIGHT, THEN VOID WOULD HAVE FOUGHT HIM YEARS AGO. Void knows the truth. How many excuses has Void made to avoid a fight with Pac? Think about it..........
