    I see it 50/50 too, though even though I don't like Mayweather im not blind to his skills im leaning towards him slighty as I can't see Pacquiap spinning Mayweather as he's done to so many recent opponents and thats a large part of his game.

          but yea..JLC was good at cutting the ring off. He was also successful at keeping the pressure on Floyd throughout the fight because he had a good chin (like pac?) but I dont think Pac has JLC's size to impose that kind of will. He'll have to use his footwork which he has.
          That is the problem with everyone. They've all watched that same video, never acknowledging the fact that Mayweather was injured in that bout. What about the fact that JLC couldn't touch him in the rematch. Or the fact that Mayweather has gotten alot better on the inside.

            the thing with pac is, he surprises fighters early with his speed and power. he can definitely hurt him if he lands enough shots. i doubt that he would connect with floyd's defense though, but it is possible.

            around the mid rounds, mayweather would have already figured out that the best way to beat him is to slow down the pace of the fight. pacquiao gets frustrated and starts taking ****** risks. he loses by UD.

            i would love to be wrong, but that's the way i see it.

              While I think that Mayweather will beat Pacquiao by a UD, I reckon it's gonna be a tougher fight for him than Floyd will imagine. Mayweather hasn't come across a boxer as athletic as Pacquiao, and Pacquiao vice versa...they're both amazing athletes and in a sense thats what puts them apart from other great boxers. You say Pacquiao hasn't fought a boxer with a good right hand, I agree, but Floyd had early problems with Zab Judah's straight left hand also, and Pacquiao's is faster and stronger. What really makes this fight amazing is that both are at their physical and mental peaks. Floyd is certain he is the GOAT and Manny is beating everyone in front of him, they have seriously high confidence and are both gonna be in amazing shape. This is gonna be such a great fight, maybe not as exciting as others, but it'll be tactical and pretty damn fascinating.

                If its a close fight that means Floyd would have been boxing Manny the whole time not running....But i expect a Floyd UD

                      if floyd runs and punches he can still win a decision

                      using the dlh trinadad fight is a bad example

                      because de la hoya ran without punching

                      mayweather will run and punch

                      and mayweathers conditioning is awesome
