Floyd Mayweather cannot possibly win fight against Manny Pacquiao

Before he signs a contract to fight Manny Pacquiao, and a guy who calls himself Money May certainly will do that, Floyd Joy Mayweather Jr. must do some soul searching. Mayweather, who is hardly creaking but who will 33 years old when the mega bout happens in 2010, has to ask himself some hard questions before he takes a fight which will enrich him beyond his wildest dreams. I’ve tried to narrow the focus for L’il Floyd and it goes a little something like this: 1. WHAT IF MY PRECIOUS ‘0’ REALLY DOES GO: My ego is bigger than the land mass of Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota put together. How will I deal with having a blemished 40-1 pro record? That dangerous demagogue Bob Arum is already spouting off on this hot topic. 2. I EASILY WIN A BOXING CONTEST, BUT CAN I WIN IT IF PACMAN TURNS IT INTO A FIGHT?: If only Manny would cooperate and just chase me around the ring like so many have done, then I can play tap-tap-tap. But Big Man-ny, he don’t roll like that. He will jumping in and out of my firing range and unloading leather missiles at all times, from all angles and directions. 3. LUCKY LEPRECHAUN COACH FREDDIE ROACH: Man, I wish he was my head trainer, I really do. Instead, I’ve got jailbird Uncle Roger who can’t match boxing wits with Roach. If Roger is locked up, then what do I? My father has already crash landed going against the Roach/Pacquiao team. I could bring in someone like Manny Steward, my fellow Michigander, but that would be an admission that I need to buy some “insurance” in my corner. Can’t do that, homie, that would be sign of mental insecurity. 4. SURE I BEAT SOUTHPAWS BUT…: You know how many had a style comparable to the unique Pacman? Nada, zilch, zero….Pacquiao’s formerly wild aggression is now controlled, effective aggression and his footwork has gone from two left feet to fabulous. And where I do get a Pacman clone for batting practice in the gym? That sparring partner has not been invented yet. 5. HITTING MANNY IS ONE THING, HURTING HIM IS ANOTHER: Hey, don’t tell anybody but my flickering punches can floor guys but I hope people don’t notice that they almost always get up immediately? I never hurt or staggered Oscar de la Hoya or the jut-jawed journeyman Carlos Baldomir. I have to admit I was impressed how Pacman crushed face first Hatton when I took the cautious route for 10 rounds. Now, if you look at the shots Cotto nailed him with, it seems the Pinoy Idol has a granite chin. Maybe I go with the Earie doctrine and turn both ears into Cauliflower Soup. Yeah, that’s the ticket. The Yes Men who surround Mayweather will tamp down his self doubts. And Mayweather will someday soon grab his pen. And he will put his John Hancock right on the dotted line. That’s right, Floyd, right above where it says ‘SIGN HERE.’ And then the die is cast. Mayweather has a laugher if it’s just a boxing match. If Manny permits same, then can fill out 12 10-9 Mayweather round scores times three right now. But Joe Frazier made Muhammad Ali fight on March 8, 1971, in the classic bout billed as "The Fight." I was at ringside, I saw it and I still don't understand it. And Pacman has the ability and the heart to do the same. Mayweather’s worst nightmare is if Pacquiao insists on turning it into a fight. Manny Pacquiao is that "Day of the Jackal type" who can beat Mayweather.
