Floyd could possibly be easier than Clottey. Don't take my word for it. If you have videos of their recent fights, replay them over and over again.

    I could see why Floyd is not so enthusiastic about a fight with Pac.
    Pac has been outboxed several times...

    What makes you think one of the greatest pure boxers of our era wont outbox him?

              Thing is Pac can even do it better. The biggest possibility is that Floyd might not be able to handle Pac's straight left. Pac does it with speed and precision: launch it like a rocket, then step back at a safe distance. At close range, Pac's right and left hook are just as deadly.

              Like I said, watch the Cotto fight in particular.

                I've always leaned towards Mayweather, but last night confirmed it for me.

                Pac is an amazing fighter, but Floyd is just better IMO.

                  I gave Mayweather a slight edge before the fight, but now I can see Pac winning. So it's about 50-50, maybe a slight edge to Pacquiao.

                    Because there's no one there like Pac. Like I said, don't take my word for it. Watch Pac in action.

                      The only way I see Pacquiao beating Floyd is if he brings a gun with him to the ring.

                      Both kinds of Floyds woud beat Pacquiao's only style. Aggressive Floyd wins, defensive Floyd wins. There's only one Pacquiao that will show up in the ring...an aggressive Pacquiao with no plan B.
