    Well I believe they can both elevate to a higher level. I think Mayweater's ability to adjust, and Pac's inability to do so may be the difference.

    ****, you should make some sort of bet with those odds, even if unlikely to happen.

    Why would I?

    I'm not an odds maker.

    I'm on a boxing forum telling 1 guy if he wants to bet, we'll bet.
    I don't give a **** about the odds.

    For those saying Pacquiao will get frustrated, i doubt it. After those fights with Marquez, Pacquiao knows what its like to be up against someone who can give as good as he takes.
    Since then you would think Pacquiao should have gotten frustrated in the Clottey fight, after all he was only hitting arms and elbows for the most part, and couldn't get the KO he was obviously looking trying for.

    So you're offering someone straight odds when they could get eleven times more than that somewhere else and wondering why nobody will take it.

    Because someone made the claim. I called him on it with a monetary bet.
    It's how **** works.

    When I bet my friends on fights I don't get technicial with it.
    I say "50 bucks on cotto to beat pac"

    then I lose 50 bucks.

    I would think it's more frustrating while your opponents are making you drop rounds rather than winning them all like he was against Clottey.

    All that really will happen is he will say "no" and then i'll know he didn't honestly believe it.

    Pac by UD only because Mayweather will ride his bicycle full time after 3 rounds.

    What if he fights him using the same style he did against Mosley.

    Isn't it funny how there are no *******s posting on this thread? Let's you know how much they know about boxing. They can't even tell how their hero is going to win and can't back it up with any facts.

    Overall, I'm picking Floyd UD. I think it will look something like the Shane fight. Total Domination. That 5 inch reach advantage will be too much for Pac.

    You think?

    Mosley had one big shot and Mayweather shut that down from then on in so he couldn't throw it anymore, I think Mosley is a better inside fighter than Pacquiao who is quite poor and I don't see him reacting well to not having the space he likes to get his shots off, I don't think he will handle Mayweather leaning all over him well either.

    If mayweather uses the same leg movement he did vs mosley, he'll eventually get stopped. You can't stand in front of pacquiao and wait to counter, you'll end up like clottey.

    I think Mayweather has to move and box, stick the jab and lead with left hooks/straight rights, then move away.

    No way he can expect Pac to jump around all jittery right in front of him and throw an embarrassingly low amount of punches.
