How do you see a Mayweather-Pacquiao bout turning out?

How do u think the fight would turn out? IMO, it'd be a high speed chessmatch.
People say this is the fight that needs to be made(same they were sayin about DLH-Mayweather). Thing is I don't see the fight being a great fight people would remember for a long time(unfortunately). What do u think?
pac will try to potshot from the outside.
this fight goes 12 and floyd wins because he is the more accurate puncher and his defense is too good.Comment

"Six"?
Please don't let the Judah fight sway you. Floyd had sparred with Zab and knew what Zab had. In fact, FMJ is the first person i've heard call Zab "a front-runner". People have taken that and run with it.
I also encourage you to go back and watch the Judah fight. While Judah landed 3 or 4 flashy punches (he always does), FMJ was methodically breaking down Zab's body.
I remain convinced that no guy who is Floyd's own size will beat him anytime soon. FMJ and Pac are both 148, with PBF having the height advantage.
Floyd has a substantial mental and tactical advantage over Pac. And his defense is several notches higher. That would be the difference in the fight. They both are capable of putting a brutal beating on lesser competition (ex: Floyd on Gatti, Pac on DLH).
The question has been asked about when floyd has faced a fighter as fast as Manny. Good question. Judah, Corley, Manfredy, Sharmba, etc were all speedy, but not at Pac's level. Maybe Judah is.
But the flipside is that Pac hasn't faced anyone EVEN CLOSE to what Floyd brings in terms of speed, timing and accuracy. Speed-wise, Judah is alot closer to Pac than Marquez is to Floyd. Does that make sense?
Pac will be awkward, fast, relatively powerfull, but in a wholey different way to what Zab was
and he will be unrelenting at first
i'm not saying he will dominate Mayweather or hurt him, but i believe he will chalk up more rounds in the first half of the fightComment

I don't feel like analyzing this fight too much right now, but to put it simply, Pacquiao will start fast, give Mayweather a few problems with his speed and stance, after a few rounds, Mayweather adjusts and starts counterpunching and timing Pacquiao effectively, especially with the straight right hand, taking over as the fight goes on. Mayweather by decision 8-4 or something like that. It'll be somewhere between a high speed chess match and a very exciting fight, it could be very exciting for about 5 rounds before Mayweather takes over where it becomes more of a chessmatch.Comment

it will look like zab/pbf first 5 rounds but pacman wont gas & fade like zab did. unless pbf can take pacman power & open up offensively pacman will walk away with this. like pwill & winky. a defense first fighter vs a fighter that dnt stop throwing punches.
idk how floyd will deal with pacman speed b/c zab had him looking clueless. damn shame zab foldedComment

Nah, Zab is faster then Pacquaio, only that Pacquaio has the stamina to do what Zab did from round 1-3 all the way up to 12. Not saying that he'll as as successful because I'm sure Mayweather will unload on Pacquaio, Pacquaio isn't the threatening puncher Zab was
In the end I'll beand
around

Did Zab "gas and fade" because he was out of shape...or because he was being pressured, countered, and hurt to the body?Comment
