    The tempo of the fight will be key to victory for both Pacquiao and Mayweather

    If the fight is at very HIGH tempo then pacquiao will have the advantage. If the fight is at a SLOW tempo then it's advantage Mayweather. This will be the key to victory for either fighter.

      Well, we know pacquiao likes to come out all guns blazing in the first few rounds. Mayweather would be in a whole world of trouble if the fight was at a very high pace especially if he reacted to everything pacquiao is throwing. Mayweather needs to dictate the fight from round 1 in my opinion, not after a couple of rounds. If he can get passed the first 6 then let's say Mayweather would start to get in his comfort zone. I just dont know how round 1 would play out though, i could see a couple of exchanges taking place which would favour pacquiao..

          you have to consider that floyd is a big WW and pac is a small WW. floyd must've been around 160 lbs against mosley. he was a lot stronger than mosley.

            He was not 160. Floyd himself said he tried to eat his way to 150 and couldnt do it.

              yeah, Floyd is so big that he doesn't even want to be weighed the day of the fight.

              Probably because he wants people to think he's 147 when he really is 155...

                Floyd Mayweather: the most reliable source in the world.

                  I think Floydie will use the jab to the body to keep Packy at bay
                  he can control him with it
