    Pacquiao has to rush in to hit Floyd, when all Floyd has to do is lean a little bit and hit him as he comes in. Pacquiao is in no way shape or form able to fight a guy like Mayweather. He couldn't contend with JMM and couldn't even fight Shane who implied what Floyd usually does but wasn't fast enough to do it.

    Why do forums like this, or anything surrounded by boxing actually think that he has a legitimate chance outside of a punches chance to beat him? It would be similar to that of how he fought Hatton except, Manny can't fight inside like Floyd. Martinez would give Floyd problems just off of his build alone.

    Yes and thats pretty much because of Size because in terms of skill Pac is better if you ask me.

    Depends on the weight they were agree to meet at. If it's 150 I doubt it. Anything above 155 it starts to seem likely.

    Martinez is anything but a basic fighter. I can agree that p4p Pacquiao is probably better, but there is nothing "basic" about Martinez's style - or level of skill.

    Didn't think this guy was part of #TheMoneyTeam, ahh well

    Martinez gives more problems due to the likelihood Floyd's style limits Pacquaio's output plus Matinez's size advantages.

    In fact, if Floyd were to fight Sergio at 160 and take the linear middleweight title that would be a fantastic achievement that would really enhance his legacy, imo. However, it's also a fight he would be very likely to loose.

    Ohh right, going to say it seems a bit strange, that guy don't seem to be bias in any direction.

    *******s love the words 'Leftovers' and 'Marquez'

    Yes, and as long as he was not weight drained, he would beat floyd. Nobody can beat Sergio, right now at 160.

    I'll admit it. Pac would give Floyd more problems than Sergio would.

    I'll go farther, Floyd would hand Sergio his breakfast. Sergio needs to shut the **** up and fight people in his own weight class. Sergio should be happy Floyd hasn't entertained his BS yet. Floyd isn't stupid either. Nobody wants to see Floyd out-spar Martinez for 12 rounds.

    Both would beat the woman beater Void, but Martinez is a bigger fighter, so I give him an even bigger edge!!!
