    ..who won, Foreman or Ali?

    Foreman was favoured because he was destroying everyone, he knocked out Frazier in 2 rounds, Frazier had beaten Ali, Ali was older, and considered past his best...

    Mayweather is considered to be in his prime..
    Well Mayweather is older

    Pacman might beat Hatton better than Mayweather did

        They're both 30, unless i'm wrong. So, Mayweather, if he is older, isn't older by much.

        Who do you think will win if they fight, Flaw?

          When the fight takes place Mayweather would be 32 and Pacman 30


          I think the most likely outcome is a Pacman win that is why he should start favourite. But we can never underestimate Mayweather he could put on another great performance.

                And Mayweather is naturally bigger than Pacquiao, Pacquiao is still an oversized lightweight to me.
                Pretty much sums it up. The ? for me is Pac's 1 punch power and can he do what he did to Oscar which is land routinely without getting tagged.

                Does Floyd have a defensive mindset which allows Pac to make the pace?

                For me, this fight could rest on who makes the pace.

                    How so??

                    Isn't Manny Pacman the P4P king and Mayweather was the fake P4P king. Isn't Mayweather the better fighter in your opinion? Why would he start underdog against a guy who has not boxed for nearly a year and who is feather fisted.

                    I think it pathetic and disheartening that the P4P king of boxing does not start favourite over a fighter coming out of retirement.

                      Pacquaio has surprised me a lot over the years, it would surprise me if he can get away with hitting Mayweather without getting hit back himself like he has in the past 2 fights, last time he fought a counterpuncher, which was Marquez, he got tagged a lot so it would be a big surprise to me if he can hit Mayweather without getting hit back.

                      If I remember correctly, Jesus Chavez really pushed the pace against Mayweather, throwing close to 100 punches a round against him, but Mayweather was able to counter him all night, I don't think Pacquiao fighting at a high pace would really bother Mayweather, and Mayweather has become very good at controlling the pace of his fights because of a mixture of his defense, underrate power and accuracy. Marquez made Pacquiao fight at a slower pace, it would surprise me if Mayweather couldn't do that.
