Comments Thread For: Mayweather is Still The Favorite To Beat Pacquiao

[Rabbit ♠]

I guess these are the same experts who picked Cotto over Manny also

Wasn't Pacquiao the favorite in that fight?

[Pullcounter]

I favor pac. floyd is shook that's why he is accusing pac of steroids.

[FLY TY]

Pretty pointless having a favourite if the fight probably ain't gonna happen.

i still think it's gonna happen, still want it to happen, but at this point, i'm tired of the back-and-forth.....either sign the fight, or move on and sign other fights, no reason to hold the fans hostage....

i'm still of the opinion that this **** is ridiculous tho. if you're clean, it makes no sense why you wouldn't agree to random testing, w/o all these counter-conditions tho. this random **** has been in the contract since the beginning, top rank and pacquiao are acting like this is **** drawn up "at the last minute," to throw off the fight....

"better to bet on Floyd Mayweather when he fights....beause that is for sure money" - Pretty Boy Floyd

You are a racist Prick!!!

pac doesnt bring anything to the ring that floyd hasn't experienced already. unfortunately for pac floyd brings a new element that pac hasnt experienced. pac has never faced anyone as technically and defensely sound as mayweather.

Cliched, flawed comments like this irritate me. Pac brings things to the table PBF hasnt seen. PBF hasnt fought anyone as highly rated as Pac for starters. That is a good enough reason in itself that floyd will lose. Pac brings plenty of things to the table PBF hasnt faced thats for sure. Pac can do things no one can do, so of course he brings things to the ring floyd hasnt experienced. So open your eyes a little before coming out with comments
and take the blinkers off ever so slightly.

Pac hasnt faced anyone as tecnically sound you are perhaps right. But all that means is that Pac will PROBABLY find it harder to hit PBF than he is used to.

I can't imagine why anyone wouldn't have him favorite. He's unbeaten.

Well that dont really mean much considering the opposition he faced and the weight he faced them in. PBF might start betting fave, but probably more people think Pac would beat PBF. We dont know how good PBF is at this stage having come out of retirement and his first fight is misleading.

simple to be the favorite when you blood drain your opponent

cuz a small vile of blood will drain him. a doctor has already discredited that point.

"How is a blood test carried out?

Blood samples for testing can be taken either from a vein (which carries blood to the heart) or from an artery (which takes blood away from the heart).

If only a few drops of blood are needed (for monitoring blood sugar in diabetes, for example) it is enough to make a small prick in the tip of the finger and then squeeze the blood out.

Most blood tests are taken from a vein, commonly from those around the elbow. First a cord (tourniquet) is tied around the upper arm to make the vein prominent. It may be a bit tight, but this makes it much easier to take the test."

An interesting interview with Freddie Roach........he thinks he knows more about blood chemistry than a biochemist with 30 years experience.

LMAO, good post.

The worst is that he couldn't FINISH the interview because he was feeling very agitated...I GUESS PBF's mind games are starting to pay dividens...

[Mr. Chago]

Im basing my opinion on simply the level of competition in the past 3 years.

Floyd wins a SD against a money hungry Delaquitter who was old anyways..
Floyd TKO Hatton who is overrated but gave Floyd trouble until Floyd finally adjusted..
Floyd wins a UD against Marquez who and any boxing expert will tell you doesnt belong anywhere north of 135....

Pacman beats old Delaquitter in a onesided fashion.. Sure DLH was old but still Pac worked him.
Pacman Pummels Hatton like a sparring partner.
Pacman makes mence meat out of Cotto who Floyd has ducked..

Level of competition..

Pacman has been fighting elite opponents and has been dominating in fashion.

Floyd has been picking and choosing his last few opponents to tailor his zero losses..

Your a fool not to see these simple facts..

With all due respect, a ******* giving a full display of skills...Only Pac fights elite figthers, but they have 3 comnon opponents...

PAC wants to fight JMM over 140 lbs yet you say he can't go north 135...

De la Hoya was the JM Champion at his weight, yet PBF fought him when he wasn't your "ELITE" opposed to the 147 lbs De la Hoya...Hatton was UNDEFEATED when PBF fought him...

I just don't understand your nonsense...

Sorry to tell you but PAC is great at what he does but not to a drastic change from anything FMJ has seen. FMJ was born boxing he's seen it all. PAC has seen alot of very similar orthodox brawlers with good left hooks (Cotto, Hatton, Delahoya, Barrera, Morales, Solis the list goes on and on) and one counter puncher that gave him all kinds of trouble(JMM). FMJ is like JMM only in terms of when he chooses to punch but his defense, speed, chin (yeah I know people say he hasn't gotten hit but I've watched most of his fights and he has been hit but hardly flinches he takes great pride in his chin he's said it before) and reflexes are another level from JMM. Also FMJ chooses to fight this way to avoid punishment but he could probably be good at any style. The only reason I don't give FMJ the definate edge is that he doesn't have overwhelming power, he has average power for his size. I think PAC's best chance will be to believe it or not will be to initiate contact so he can try and counter the counter with left straights or lead left straights at awkward times. In other words because of his combination of speed, power, and the fact that he is a southpaw he may be able to land a couple of big shots most rounds and possibly a knock down which might help him win most rounds. Most likely I see it being a toss up going to who ever makes the better adjustment to the other person's style, I hate to say it PAC fans cuz I'm not the biggest FMJ fan but I see him adjusting better and probably winning an 8-4, 7-5 desicion in which he frustrates PAC in the second half of the fight after PAC lands some good left hands in the first half.
