Floyd can't potshot to UD win against Pac because...

[My 2 Cents]

This is an easy fight for Pac. Easier than Cotto.

I know we're on the same side but please elaborate. you can do better than that.

Katz' is on the shy side I guess...

I see May trying to play his mind games on Pac, and will engage more than we expect him to, to try to make Pacman and his corner, primarily Freddie Roach, to second guess his every move, throw their game plan off by doing the unexpected. I also feel Floyd CAN'T afford to give away early rounds and expect to catch up easy in the later rounds like some of his previous fights because Pacquiao and his work rate doesn't have a stop button, and his power at the later stages of his fights doesn't seem to lose its luster. His gas tank is bottomless and self refilling.

One thing I'm sure though, we're in for a treat next year!

Excellent exchange between you and Rod Barker. We need more of them here on NSB.

I especially agree with this statement by Rod Barker

The words "tentative" and "Pacquiao" doesn't belong in the same sentence I believe. He gets tag with a Howitzer here and there, but I've never saw him backed down from a fight. He'll nod, he will raise his hands, he will knock his boxing gloves and will never stop coming at you. Floyd's previous opponents' work rate couldn't even come close to Pacquiao's work rate. His starts and finishes have the same ferocity, and he will never stop at nothing to get a
KO, and he will be the best finisher Floyd will ever face.

It's going to be a great fight. There is a small chance that Mayweather can dominate the fight, able to keep his distance and counter as Klitschko did with Arreola but I don't think so. (I'm not comparing VK with Mayweather or Arreola with Pac -- only an example of a pressure fighter being dominated throughout the fight.) As great as Mayweather is I don't see him able to keep his distance from Pac. But I didn't think he would dominate Marquez as he did either. So what do I know? :-)

It's not an excellent exchange, it's a miracle! =D
