Mayweather vs Pacquiao might be closer than you think

[Someone88]

Depends on the rationale. I could see scenarios where the fight ends in a TKO or KO for Mayweather. It's hard to predict how a fighter will hold up mentally when he has no answers to the problem in front of him. I don't take issue with people predicting that Pacquiao will give Mayweather huge problems or even defeat Mayweather, I take issue with the rationale. I've yet to see someone give an intelligent argument to support those opinions. The post that you quoted saying "good post" is a perfect example of what I'm alking about. It wasn't a good post, it was illogical fanboy rhetoric.

Lol it doesn't mean I agree with exactly every point I just think some good points were made, also this post by you is good. I've seen some people give good arguments as to why Pacquiao could beat Mayweather though, but this is a forum everyone can give their opinions I just some people here are being way too biased

disagree. did marquez kno pac in his first fight with him? he got put on his ass how many times and manny couldnt figure him out??? and then he figured manny out immediately after? u guys problem is u think the **** manny does is overly complex. it isnt. he has rhythm but its very easy to figure out for guys like floyd and jmm. if u think it'll take floyd more than 3 rounds to "know" pac, i really think the world is in for a huge disappointment.

what are you saying PAC is the underdog in this fight ..

waching mayweather on his woman hating, woman beating, trophy whore collecting, 50 cent ****sexual bromancing, exaggeratiing, fake ass is worth any amount of money

bottom line

if pacquiao beats floyd he's greater than ali

naw not even if he beats floyd

It doesn't matter how fast Pacquiao is because he cannot cut the ring off and Mayweather has longer arms than him. I hope this fight occurs so that I can be vindicated yet again.

Mayweather's chin will only get tested if he tries to humiliate Pacquiao close quarter.

Very good post and its something that people rarley point out Pacman has no idea how to cut off the ring he follows his opponents around ,it works for him because of his handspeed ,chin and southpaw footwork,againt fighters that simply dont know better.Against someone like Jr we have to assume he knows better,the template has been laid out by JMM 3x and even by mosley.circle to pacs right and he doesnt know what to do.The only man that u can say already beat floyd was Jose luis Castillo and that guy knows how to cut off the ring and apply pressure with massive amounts of body punching,Jr showed much activity throwing rt hands against Ortiz which found their mark quite easily the same will happen to Pac,however rt before the headbutt ortiz was getting in some thudding lefts and that makes things quite interesting.Pac is strictly a headhunter and im not so sure thats the way to beat floyd,A duran /castillo/chavez type style a smothering sustaind body attck is the best style suited to beat floyd imo....
