Pacquiao is tailored made for Mayweather

the reason pacquiao wont do the test is simple
its not ordered by the boxing commission
he said if the boxing commission ordrers it he will do it

why would you do something simply because your opponent told you to do it ?
thats like giving him the first 2 rounds

floyd doesnt make the rules .

I don't think so..Pacquiao will be a hard to beat due to his work activity and style..

Just like Ace Ventura said, "LIKE A GLOVE!!!!" Hehe, j/k.

you saw what work rate does in round 2
the only thing shane couldnt mantain it
when mosley was throwing shot after shot
all mayweather could do was weather the storm and hold on
but pacquiao will be like that for the full 12 rounds

Floyd Sr.: I do not like my son fighting southpaws.

Let me preface my comments by saying that I like both Pacquiao and Mayweather and I think they are both phenomenal boxers.

I will say that I did find it a little disturbing that Pacquaio wouldn't take the blood test. Conventional thought says if you have nothing to hide then why not do it. If for no other reason that to show your opponent you're not cheating.

But anyway, as for the fight, I really don't see how Pacquaio is going to win. He has always had problems with true boxers, and Mayweather likes when fighters try to pressure him. I see this fight playing out like all of Mayweather's fights. It'll be competitive for the first few rounds and once Mayweather gets Pacquiao's timing and rhythm down it will be a blowout for the rest of the fight.

The only real question in my mind is if Mayweather will knock him out or not. I have a feeling that he will try and really make a statement and either knock him out or make Roach throw in the towel.

not what floyd thinks. hes scared ****less of pac. how easy is it to say "lets get it on"?

There is a reason why people's workrate seems to drop when they face fighters like Hopkins and Mayweather. Pacquaio will be no different. The fight will be good for the first 4-6 rounds, if that, then it will be a complete wipeout.

That is the story with all of Mayweather's fights.

pacquiao's chin is going to beat the hell out of floyds fists, his chin will hit the straight hands at will.

Well lets look at some facts.

Pac has a great work rate not only that he has great foot work and speed/power.

The Mosley Mayweather fight was a crucial match to get a solid base of how a pac and mayweather fight would go.

Shane gassed and was looking for power shots that wasn't there. To me Shane was gassed from round 4 on. That will not happen with pac not only does he throw in his 7 punch combos but he can do it from all angles spinning and pivoting for 12 rounds. Come in and out with his quick foot speed.

Shane was getting pop-shotted and seemed scared to pull the trigger (pac/clotty) . I have seen Pac get tagged really well, and not only does it seem that he enjoys it he encourages it. (which is why you got to love that warrior)

Hard one to analyze, we all want the fight to happen. But I think pac will be a huge test for floyd and vice versa.
