***OFFICIAL Predictions THREAD: May v. Pac***

My vote's for PAC by TKO :boxing:

bump for those who have not voted....the poll is closed so just post your thoughts

Pac by late TKO or if pac cant catch Floyd, Floyd by UD

bump :boxing:

iv always thought that you should not bet against mayweather. but im thinking the same about pacquiao. as long as the fight is at 147 it could go either way. cant decide yet.

Mayweather by UD or possibly late TKO if Pac's defense is worse than I thought...

Clicked Mayweather by SD by accident, I meant by UD though.

Pacquiao by brutal KO in the 5th round.

Depends on the conditions. We all know Leonard/Hagler would've been different without the 24 ft ring and 10 oz gloves.

bump for peyk!!! :boxing:

Has dino made his prediction yet? :D

If floyd runs ala baldamir fight then it's gonna be a frustrating fight for pac.. but if floyd fights the way he fought judah he's gonna get stretched..

This is a pick'em and can go either way. I either see Manny winning by KO or PBF by UD. I can't wait for the fight. Agree word for word.

this is the first time I go against Manny. All common sense and knowledge points to Floyd for a close UD. Really? Did you pick manny over your favorite fighter JMM? just curious :P

Close but a clear and unanimous decision for Floyd. Too much skill and smarts on Floyd's end. IMO Floyd will not EXPOSE Pac, but he will win clearly.

Mayweather by boring safety-first decision win. Pacquiao will chase Mayweather Jr all across that big-ass ring and he'll fall into Floyds trap like 40 fighters have. I don't want that to happen, I just don't see any other outcome. Floyd will be leaving the ring yelling I told you so! so you don't think that Manny can stop or negate Floyd's movement?

Tough to decide. It's either going to be Manny by KO or Floyd by UD, imo. I'm sticking with Floyd for now. :D

I think it's a bit early for "official predictions" for a fight that has yet to be signed. Oh well. To each his own.

Honestly, I can see any scenario for the way this fight ends except an early stoppage or KO on either side. If either managed that, I would really be shocked. I like Manny by TKO in the later rounds. What I like about Manny is that most boxers will only throw a 3-4 punch combo but he throws higher volume punch combos and can miss with the first few but will not stop until they get through. I think that that throws people off because when they think he's almost finshed, he just keeps coming at all angles. From watching the Hatton and Cotto fights, he also throws really digging body punches. I would want to test the body and stamina of Mayweather but of course it is easier said than done. If he gets Mayweather hurt, I'm confident though he will get him out of there. I can also see Mayweather winning a decsion due to accuracy and staying on the outside with his jab. The thing I got from the Marquez fight is that his jab is ultra fast and he has very impressive reflexes and defense. The only thing that worries me is that Pacquiao fought a bit too flat footed against Cotto. My dream come true would be if he pulled a Barrera against Hamed and ended it with a nasty KO.
