Pacquiao is fighting Mayweather jr.'s left-overs, but Mayweather jr. is afraid to fight Pacquiao's left-overs.Comment

I'm probably in the minority, but I think JMM has a good shot at this. Mayweather definitely had a size advantage over JMM when they fought, but that's not the reason Floyd beat him so easily. Floyd was just sharper and more skilled and I can't imagine anyone arguing that Floyd wouldn't have beaten Marquez at anyweight (lightweight, superfeather or whatever). Having said that, I think JMM's handlers would be foolish to let him come in anywhere over 138lb for this next fight. Pacquiao's size advantage isn't going to be that great IMO. Just because he's carried his power well up the ladder doesn't mean he's going to drop Marquez with every punch he throws as a lot of people here seem to think. JMM has gotten a bit slower since their last encounter, but I see some deterioration in Pacquiao too. Pac should be glad that Floyd has no balls because he would honestly get embarrased by Floyd. I'm not hating, because I'm a Pac fan and I really can't stand Floyd, but the outcome of that fight seems pretty clear to me. Floyd is far more skilled and crafty than Pacquiao. Though not by as much, JMM is also more skilled and crafty. If he shows up in supreme shape (not 144lbs), then I think he has a great chance to finally get his win over Pac and make himself a very rich man in the 4th fight.Last edited by NachoMan; 05-11-2011, 12:09 AM.Comment

Old money vs Young Money
I'm not a fan of Top Rank and their circus acts but Goldenboy should know old money and clout beats young upstart money any day. If it gets into a purse war Goldenboy has no chance against Arum.Comment
