Fact is Mayweather would pick Pacman apart.

    I tipped Pacquiao to decimate both Hatton and Cotto.I also was unsure and sketchy at how Oscar would fight at a weight he hadn't been at for years.....All these fighters have similarities that Manny flourishes against.
    1-they are all left hand dominant/converted-to cause Manny problems,you need to have a good straight right...yet none of these fighters have one.

    2-they are big names (not exactly big skills) that have been damaged in previous fights (both Cotto and Hatton had looked ordinary after getting ko/tko'd,but did average against recent competition-with the exclusion of hatton vs malignaggi),so they still had the appearance in the casual fans eyes of still being great,yet their skills and confidence had diminished.Hell,Oscar looked jacked up after the Forbes fight and messed up his shoulder I believe.He was not impressive at all.

    3-all of his last 4 opponents are fighters who generally come forward and fight (not box) in front of Manny.It's a fight he will always win and these opponents cannot adjust.To Cotto's credit,when he tried to box in round 1 and when he was on the retreat in round 11 (i think), it frustrated Manny and he couldn't be as effective.Saying this,they should have called the fight off after round 9.

      Mayweather will only be defending (HE'S VERY CAUTIOUS) and throw the ocassional Potshot.


      And if Money May had a close fight with Hoya and went all those rounds with Hatton, he shouldn't be the favorite in the fight.

      Manny will beat him with Relentless Workrate plus Demonic Speed
      More like Mayweather will nullify Pacquiao's workrate.I see him frustrating Manny to be honest with timing,defense, countering and not engaging in a fight or brawl like the others Manny has fought.
      The De La Hoya that Floyd fought was at a weight he was comfortable at-not a dehydrated zombie that can't expend energy to even throw a punch or block,and Hatton was undefeated before Mayweather.
      I see Manny winning up to 4 rounds before Mayweather figures out and times Pacquiao's pattern.

        I don't know man. I think Pac can be outboxed, but you really have to fight to beat him. I'm not sure how Floyd can win without a fight.

            I think that is a very good point. Manny seemed frustrated last night when Cotto started moving away (running) from him in the later rounds. At one or more occasions, Manny seemed to complain to the ref for Cotto running. I still need to look back at that fight though.

              Manny wins a clear decision or late stoppage with a combination of lightening speed, angles and amazing workrate i can see Mayweathers heart being broke around about the mid way stage and then him becoming the boxing version of Roadrunner, Beep Beep.

                Floyd would have to get in the ring with him first. Till then, shut the **** up!!! Cause you would be to the first to discredit a Pac win over Floyd and then go on to say Pac would need to face Paul Williams.

                Till it is signed, just shut up.


                P.S. Manny is now the best fighter in the world. Do your Floyd loving eyes not see that yet? Just give the man his do, and hope your lover steps to the plate.

                  As much as you annoy me, I actually agree with you.

                    Manny only knows how to fight one way,Mayweather is always composed,can make adjustments on the drop of a dime and will make Manny frustrated by boxing and countering-he will not engage into a brawl-he is a pure boxer.
                    To anyone who thought Cotto and Hatton would beat Manny-do your homework.Styles make fights.

                      Mayweather wins only because he would pick his shots and run. I can't see PBF going "toe to toe" with anyone let alone Manny.
