    You need to organize your thoughts. Whitaker beat Chavez CONVICINGLY by taking NINE rounds. If you see it going like Whitaker/Chavez, Floyd would score a CLEAR and DOMINANT UD over pac. It wouldn't be no Mayweather SD or draw you're dreaming about if it was to go like Whitaker/Chavez.
    after YEARS of not seeing the fight.....and scoring it with a fresh point of view....

    I scored it closer to a DRAW. I think I gotta watch it again. I know there should've been some points deducted.

    But as soon as the fight finished after not watching for years, my first thought was "yo this **** better be a draw".

      Some of you don't realize that Mosley was OLD as **** in that fight. He probably could have done something in round 2 again in the later rounds in his PRIME. He emptied his tank after round 2 and you can clearly noticed this was a rusted, old fighter who after that round didnt come in with enough energy to jab and hit Floyd with power shots anymore. So Floyd is clearly lucky that wasn't a prime Mosley.

      Pacquiao doesn't tire and has the pop and the footwork to come towards Floyd quick and land some good combinations. If Floyd doesn't open up to stop Pacquiao's assault then Floyd will probably lose. Potshotting won't work if your constanly on the move scared to gethit.

          Floyd won't open up because he retired instead of fighting. And Watch the Lebwaba fight, a slick boxer with head movement and footwork who Pac whacked as he (Lebwaba) was moving backwards. Starts at 3 min:




          Saying that Pac only generates power against guys who walk into his punches is absolutely ******ed. His power is generated by speed, torque, technique, angles, a strong base, and his thick bone density. Moving forward, moving back, going left or right, you will feel his power.

              That was also in the small man weight divisions. Fighters have a higher punch resistance in the bigger weight classes.

                Manny Puts Floyd on ***** Street in the first couple rounds but doesn't knock him out, then what? I expect floyd to get rocked at the least. I also expect Pac to get hit...alot...alot alot alot.

                    Some people have serious reading comprehension issues. I was responding to a poster who said Pac only has power when someone walks into his punches. Then I showed him Pac KOing a mobile boxer who was backing away.

                    Where did I make a Floyd comparison?

                      If Floyd fights next year and Pac stays active he might lose.. But Floyd is a bad match up for Manny. Manny never seen anybody with that speed and accuracy, but Floyds at risk to.. It would be a good fight
