      This is the only true statement that Freddie Roach has made since negotiations began on this fight.

        By the time Ali fought Holmes, he was way past his prime and Holmes was in his prime. Ali couldn't have beaten Holmes at that time with any trainer. He should have remained retired after the second Spinks fight. However, in his prime, Ali would have beaten him.

            I love reading all of these one sided predictions. I think fans on each side are writing some big ass checks and sincerely, I don't think there's enough funds you your account to cash them. So look at this fight realistically and stop predicting with your hearts and go with your brains.

            This is the way I see it. For Pac to win this fight he needs to give Mayweather a royal ***in beatdown early in the fight. Pac needs to punish Floyd early and knock Floyd the *** out or give him such a beating in the beginning that if it goes past five rounds it'll only be time before Floyd just can't take it anymore. That's how Pac wins. By KO

            As for Floyd, he needs to be patient early and let Pac bring the fight to him. No need to change your style but don't get lazy and careless, especially early. Do what you do best and stick and move. Since Floyd also has incredible endurance, if after 5 rounds Pac has done no serious damage to Floyd then call all the people you bet with and collect your cheese because in my opinion Floyd is going to take over the fight by continuing his side to side and just picking apart Pac with combo-counters. That's how Floyd wins. By UD or maybe even a late rounds TKO.

              He said it when he didn't think the fight would happen.

                  No need to be man, I just thought you should know that he wasn't serious.

                    Pacquiao is gonna definitely get a different angle in this fight thrown at him, and he'll have to adjust to it if he expects to win. Just get the fight done already. I'm glad it's in March because the earlier the better for me because it will put an end to the fan girls trolling the forums even though we'll have to hear everybody's opinion in the aftermath once the fight is over with.

                      This being in March seems almost.......illegal. We usually have to wait about 6 months for a fight this big. Still going to get pretty damn heated soon.
