No offense, but you didn't really say anything besides the same old same old. "Pacquiao is fast, powerful, and tough..... Mayweather has trouble with pressure... ". I say that Mayweather has dealt with fighters who try to wear him down with pressure(outside of the 1st Castillo fight when he was basically fighting with 1 arm) just fine. I would also say that Pacquiao is not really a pressure/swarming fighter, he's an in/out fighter. The fight will come down to boxing skills. Pacquiao can be willing to take all the risks in the world, but if he doesn't have the boxing skills to land punches consistently at a decent percentage while effectively defending himself, then he's going to lose. It's as simple as that in my mind.
Your gut feeling Manny - Floyd

My gut tells me Pac beats Floyd for this reason:

2 people besides Mayweather and you don't think Pac is great? Sure he's no top 10 atg or anything but the man has proven his greatness at least as well as Mayweather has. Stylistically Mayweather may beat him but the fact Pac has come from a 126 brawler to even being considered a valid opponent for Mayweather speaks volumes.Comment

I'm not convinced that Pacquiao is as great as people like you think that he is. Besides, you missed my point which is that it's presumptuous to think that Pacquiao has all the tools necessary to beat Mayweather. Mayweather is undefeated with only one close fight in his career. Noone really knows what it takes to beat Mayweather.Comment

floyds betting primarily because of style and he is bigger, but pac fights better as an underdog and will suprise everyone once again.Comment

Your right about that, seeing both of pac's eyes closed and blood flooding out of his mouth, whilst Freddie is three seconds away from throwing the towel in and Manny is still throwing punches at Floyd (while missing) will be surprising to see Manny try to hang in there.Comment
