    for me , when you have a power puncher with good stamina......

    the longer it goes the more chances that power puncher has to landing that one big punch.

      i also think pac has the superior stamina.

      pac can fight at floyd's pace no problem but i think floyd might have a problem fighting pac's pace. (big if that pac can force his pace but still)
      IDK if I agree with that. Obviously Pac fights at a faster pace now but Floyd's style is known for draining fighters. They all tire against him. Not only that but you can argue in some ways about the pace. Floyd's more of a mover than Pac yet he still never tires. In the lower weights Floyd would move non stop the whole fight but wouldnt tire.

      Pac would still much rather just meet you in the center & punch. He'd rather not have to chase you. His stamina didnt look great fighting at Mosley's pace when he was circling. Not to say he was tired but Floyd could easily fight at that pace or any other pace that Pac has set at. Its just 2 totally different styles and thats what makes it so intriuging

        I can see this going in Floyd's favor. 15 rounds of countering is easy for Floyd. Pac, especially against Floyd, will probably throw lots and lots and lots of punches. That and Floyd's bodywork just might be able to give Floyd what he needs for a knockout.

          floyd doesn't move as much as he use to.

          don't confuse me saying 15 rounds is to pac's benefit as me saying pac will win if it's 15 rounds.

          whether or not pac or floyd will win we don't know.

          i just think giving pac 3 extra rounds is to his advantage. i think he has the better stamina.

            It would make it very interesting, those last 3 rounds would be a huge unknown.

            It would make it a very tough fight to gamble on though because of that.

              15 rounds fights are about pacing yourself, Floyd fights at a much better 15 round pace than Manny. If we are talking how they currently fight with no changes.

              More stamina isn't that big a deal if that energy gets used at a faster rate.

                at least this ts offers a proposal/solution.

                some fans just keep introducing roadblocks after roadblocks.

                pac on video saying he will take the tests is treated with scorn instead of taking it as good news.

                  **** that...let them fight until someone falls to the ground and can no longer fight.

                  they should earn their $100 million payday that way...don't care if they burn stacks of $100 bills after, with TMZ on their ass.

                      15 rounds for all major fights like this as well as weighing the morning of the fight. No fighter should be able to blow up 2 or 3 weight classes before getting in the ring.
