    The most likely out come would be ...that it would be exciting for 4 rounds until Mayweather adjusts and then just tags Pacman and runs away to win a UD.

      I think Pacquiao-Mosley would be a more exciting fight but Pacquiao-Mayweather has much more importance to it. Pacquiao will no doubt be the one everyone looks to to make the fight exciting. I still want to see this fight come to fruition. It will be very tactical for the first 4 rounds and then I would expect Pacquiao to turn it up and start taking some more chances. During their first negotiations, I had Mayweather without a doubt winning this match but may be leaning slightly towards Pacquiao if for no other reason than for seeing him fight more and being able to gauge his current form. Mayweather's inconsitency of getting in the ring is leaving me with to many variables to comfortably be able to pick him as a clear cut winner. I hope it happens.

        It would be more technical then people expect. Quiet as kept I expect both to box for the first 4-5 rds. What I expect to happen is manny will try to turn it up(because dudes loves to make it a fight) and then that's when it will get exciting to boxing purist like us.

        **** might be a modern day classic.

        Also both fighters have shown that if they get hurt they will turn it the f-ck up.

          Now this is spot on what's going on. Floyd not fighting is leaving people in doubt. Manny smoking cats don't make it no better.

          And you know what Floyd not fighting make the betting lines closer then what it would be. **** he might f-ck around and be the underdog.

            • Lots of action? Rock'em-Sock'em types?

            • Both?
            • Domination by one?

            From the purists' standpoint, any kind of pugilism is "good". I just want to see them both confirm their status as the "bests".

            All of these are just mere expectations meets reality.
            Very good post! All too often, fights are determined to be "good" or "bad" based solely upon the amount of damage both fighters take as opposed to other pugilistic factors that you stated above. There are many kinds of "good" fights!

              I think It'll start out boring as May tries to potshot a win but Pac will start catching him and we may be blessed to see the old Mayweather again. At that point I see round after round of war until one man's body give out.l

              I can dream, can't I?

                **** he turn it up against mosley. Matter of fact after he got tagged twice he started walking mosley down pressing the fight.

                Man as a fan I can't wait for this fight. **** as Floyd fan I fo to say he will be in the fight that people always wanted him in.

                  Depends on your definition of a good fight and who won. Either way, though, whoever wins would have to put on an inch perfect performance which would be something to watch.

                    I was a Mayweather fan until he turned *****, I miss those 130/135 days. Your right about the Mosley fight, he turned it on but then chilled once he put Mosley in check and he stopped throwing.

                    I do hope my scenario comes to play for 2 reasons, first so the fight isn't a snore and second I think it'll up Pac's chances of KO'ing Floyd. At this point Floyd isn't physically what he was @ 130 and Pac thrives on exchanges.
