      your ****** and doesn't know boxing if you think that slick boxers always wins over boxers with power, your PBF did not challenge himself enough and always fought fighters that he most likely will beat and is favored to beat, that is why in the greater scheme of things he will not be remembered and regarded as one of the great ones. talent alone will not make you a great fighter but rising through adversity and challenging yourself and testing your mettle will

        NEWS FLASH if Floyd came out of retirement and fought PAC at the end of the year Floyd will still be the betting favorite!!! Its ok to be a PAC fan but please open your eyes. Like snypes posted Manny wins fights on pure physical ability; he is not as physically gifted as Floyd. Do u honestly believe a lot of the Floyd haters dont want him to fight Manny because they think Manny would beat him? If they thought PAC stood a chance they would be begging for the fight.

          floyd has trouble with people that are faster than him, ex Judah vs mayweather, in the first 5 rounds judah was easily beating mayweather with his speed... but then judah lost concentration and lost the fight. If pacman keeps his head on straight the whole fight, and doesn't try to jump in, he has got a huge shot at beating mayweather.

              Part of PAC's tactical strategy is jumping in on fighters. So u admit Floyd has fought someone just as fast as PAC. But who can u name that PAC has fought that is as fast as Floyd? PAC has never been in with a fighter with the quickness of hands and feet. In the fight with Judah its nothing that Judah did (losing his concentration), Floyd adjusted during the fight and Judah didnt have an answer for it. Seems like the only thing u can say about PAC is speed. But Im pretty sure u are knowledable enough to know that he doesnt have near the boxing skills of Mayweather.

                Tito,

                Why are you so emotionally invested in it? Just kick back, ignore the chatter, and re-engage when the fight is actually announced.

                  He has very good boxing skills, though, which you appear from some of your other posts, to under-estimate.

                    You're right, styles makes fight and I think Mayweather is yet to encounter the style of Pac, and vice versa, and other word, no one knows really who's better. In my opinion, Mayweather becomes only a superior athlete by utilizing his good offensive and defensive skills against an straight-forward opponent, but against Pacman's peculiar lateral movements plus fast-handed and equipped with power, I think will make the difference from Mayweather's erstwhile opponents. And yes his camp is not yet calling the names of Bradley, Berto or Mosley because Pac camp are now calling the name Cotto as the next possible Pac opponent, and those names as far as I am concerned are not better than Cotto. Pac has defeated ODLH, and if he will defeat Hatton as highly expected he would, what makes you think that Mayweather will be still edging Pacman that wide???
