    Mmmmmm nah. I know he dropped Marquez's little ass, but I don't see Pac touching the canvas.

      They can both drop each other if the timing is right. Manny's gotta hope the same window that Shane put his fist through on Floyd pops up again.

        I have to disagree, Clottey was just standing there, he wasn't being ellusive, and Pac was landing between & around the guard with little to no reaction from Clottey. Mayweather would be harder to get in a position to land on and will make Pac pay on the way in.

          Mayweather go in for the kill? Does he ever do that?

          The closest thing for him going in for a kill was hatton, and even then he was still counter punching

            Fair enough.

            Floyd's ring smarts really cuts down previous opponent's workrates. Something Pacquiao hasn't faced before.

            But don't forget that at the other side of the fence, Floyd also never faced anyone who can cut the ring to get thru the opponent as efficiently as Pacquiao.

            I hope fight gets made.

              He could, just like he could have dropped/stopped Shane and Marquez had he put his foot on the gas. So what I'm saying is, he won't.

                Clottey chose to take on the role of an award winning heavy bag with eye balls. He would've made any opponent look great that night.

                  Pac's footspeed, handspeed and combos will be the best Mayweather's ever faced.

                  Mayweather's handspeed, accurate counterpunching , and superior boxing skill will be the best Pacquiao's ever faced.

                  In the end, there can be only 1, whoever wins would be considered the best fighter of this era IMHO, a KO or KD would just be a bonus.

                    True, as i said before, i thought that was the best demonstration of how to lose a fight until Green's pathetic display against Ward.

                      if pacquiao takes the OST i can see mayweather winning easily by KO inside of 5 rounds if not that's not gonna happen.

                      do u remember that cotto landed a massive uppercut that caught pacquiao by surprise and he was like what? what hit me, a mosquito? do u hit me? c'mon that's all u got, hit me more!!!!! cotto also landed a lot of hooks to the body and head and pacquiao was like nothing

                      and we all know that cotto is a far superior puncher than mayweather.
