    If Floyd runs he wins via paid judges, otherwise Pacman via TKO

    I know the popular comparison is JMM=PBF but that doesn't necesarily mean same results. Maybe JMM just had the PERFECT style to tame Pac. I know PBF would make Pac miss the initial shot or two but can he stop the 3rd, 4th and 5th shots? That's where Pac's ridiculous footspeed would've played a big factor.

    I can't call it. Gun to my head, PBF. But if Pac got through that D and started teeing off, I would not have been shocked one bit. Boxing fans were obviously cheated out of this fight.

    When people compare there ages, Pac definitely relies more on athleticism. This fight is very similar to Roy Jones vs Hopkins fight 1 and 2. Totally different outcomes and their similar in age. That being said Pac would beat him in 09. And Floyd knew the longer he waited the better chance he had.

    Mayweather. All day every day. Wouldn't be much different from their actual fight.

    Best offence vs best defence. Difference being the best defence turns that defence ce into offence. He could counter punch him. It would have been the true fight of the century.

    Mayweather.
    But
    I think he’d never risked the fight vs that Pacquiao and not been prepared to deal with what would be his hardest fight. Look at how Hatton gave him a few problems when he couldn’t even fight inside.

    Interesting to know the score cards of that fight. Mayweather was paying good money in h2h betting against Oscar and Hatton. Some people would have made big money betting on him. Some people would have made a profitable living betting on Mayweather period.
