Why do you think your man, either Floyd or Manny will win?

True, Mayweather is not Cotto. But "How" will Mayweather use his size advantage in which Cotto did not?

You make him carry your weight, clinch and lean down on his shoulders.................punch him and push him back.............basically bully him

I got Floyd winning because Manny gets hit too much and Floyd doesn't get hit too much

^That's like put in simple form. It's simplified like a fraction problem.


If you want my geek/nerdy answer, i'll give it to you. I think Floyd is going to beat Pacquiao because Pacquiao has never faced anyone with Floyd's handspeed and ring intelligence, and it's going to shock Pacquiao to fight somebody that good. Pacquiao is going to be more star-struck than anything else. Mayweather has faced southpaws like Corley and the speedy Zab Judah, so they're not Pacquiao but they're southpaws. Mayweather is the bigger man and will be the bigger man on fight night anyways. To give Mayweather the fight of his life, you have to have the height, weight, and reach advantage...plus you have to be a pressure fighter, guess what? Pacquiao has none of that..not even a pressure fighter. On paper it's a "50-50" fight but stylistically, if you know about styles that is, you should know Floyd has the advantage here. If you think Pacquiao will just blow Mayweather in the 2nd round like he did to Hatton then you're in for a surprise if this fight happens.

No I don't think that will happen and yes it will be tough because of Floyd's style but IMO Manny will pressure him and will make him fight and at the same time try to avoid his counter punching. It will be tough but his 4 to 5 punch combination will land somehow.
