    It possible that Mayweather could have beaten either one. But I wouldn't argue it either way.

      I have never really cared about fighters or anyone in sports for that matter. ******** on spots i guess has truly shaped my views because i just look at who will win or lose and what the odds may be. I guess thats why my views clash with a lot of people.

        i'm different i'm more emotional about fighters , teams , athletes , etc.

        lose a lot of money that way.......

        you're the ******** expert...... if i can get 3-1 or 4-1 on manny vs. oscar would it be worth a few hundred?

        i know he's a big underdog but would the odds be worth it?

            The only reason i would argue it is that there are no absolutes in boxing anyone can be beaten and that includes Floyd Mayweather. Very little is certain in the fight game it is all probabilities and not absolutes.

                It is all what you think man, if you get good odds why not 400 to win 1600 is a nice bet. I would think about the fight and figure out what you think Pacman's chances are if the odds are better (your making more money than what you think the risk is).

                It makes the fights more interesting but if you lose it sucks, all i can suggest is use your head.

                    my list is somewhat different.

                    morales = atg
                    barrera = atg
                    jones = atg
                    hopkins = g
                    delahoya = g
                    trinidad = atg
                    holyfield = g
                    lewis = atg
                    tszyu = atg
                    pacquiao = atg
                    hamed = g
                    calzaghe = g
                    whitaker = atg
                    chavez = atg
                    wright = g
