    Pac will always give Mayweather problems because he doesn't fight like a textbook fighter. Mayweather is a great boxer because most fighters fight out of the book with not much variation. The thing about Pacquiao is he is anything besides a textbook fighter.

    Manny shoots from all and any angles, comes forward with serious head movement and pulls the trigger at all times.

    Not to mention, Manny's feet can move to keep up with Floyd.

    If you think Manny would fight Mayweather like he tried to fight Marquez in III, you're an idiot.

      Pac and Alvarez are the only two fighters that I believe are capable of landing anything substantial against Mayweather.

      The only two guys in the division who have the speed, power and combination punching capable of putting Floyd on the canvas.

      I don't see any other intriguing opponents for Mayweather.

      Martinez was on the short list, but based on his last fight, he's far too hobbled showing signs of age and injury.

      GGG is also on the short list in the unlikely event he moves down to 154.

        After watching last nights performance against Guerrero, I didn't see anything that would lead me to believe Floyd beats Pacquiao.

        Floyd was backing up but still landing first cuz Ghost has slow footspeed and bad head work but after they got in close Ghost was working that body

        Now imagine fighting Pac who has great head movement and footspeed and has more power and speed than you

        Floyd doesn't go 6 rounds with Pacquiao

          Judging by how easily Mayweather's hands break, I think Mayweather's hands would break before he even started to hurt or break down Pacquiao.

          If they fought, Mayweather would have to constantly land every single round just to keep Pacquiao off of him and slow down his offense.

          The more Pacquiao gets hit, the more likely Mayweather's hands will break, and Floyd does not have 1 punch KO power.


          ***Edit:Last night, around the 9th round, when Mayweather had taken control of the entire fight I was wondering why Floyd slowed down and was backing off when he could have easily finished him off just by continuuing what he was doing, until I learned in the post fight interview that he broke his hand, and that's when it made sense.

          The same thing also happened against Mosley.

          He cannot do that against Pacquiao. If you slow down against Pacquiao, he will destroy you.

          The only thing Pacquiao needs to get you out of there, is one window of opportunity, and when he gets that window, he's going to barge in with everything he's got.
          stop fantasying about mayweather v pacquiao because bob hasnt built his stadium yet.

            I guess the army has accepted that the best way Pac could beat Mayweather would be by letting Mayweather break his hands on Pacquiao's face

              Sadly those same right hands that May was landing on Robert would knock Pacman out.

              If this was the PAcquiao who fought Cotto I would say it would be different.

              but Pacman's chin is ruined its no longer the same and Marquez cracked it with a loopy overhand wide right hand, and finished it with a short right hand.

                lol, you know the desperation is reaching critical mass when it's like 'Well, Floyd better watch out, because if he hits Manny too many times, he's gonna hurt his hands! Floyd better not hit Manny too much. Yeah.'

                lmao.

                      Notice I always say WW hype job , understand that !

                      Dont fight B grade Alvaraez and Rios , fight Guerrero and you watch Manny lose that , dude is a WW hype job .
                      You are the biggest hater in town. You can talk all that crap defending a COWARD, are you a real man? a real man who is not a racist idiot who only sides with his own will yell at Floyd and disown him,not defend him for his coward moves. I personally think Floyd whoops Manny but Floyd doesn't have confidence in himself. I like guys who are about it like James Toney, Mayorga, or Ali guys who will talk **** but actually fight the guy, Floyd talks **** about PAcquiao but never even fought this guy, and stop bringing up drug tests thats BS. If JMM can KO Manny without drug tests why can't Floyd?

                      Oscar doesn't get sympathy so nix that he called out a small man and cherry picked him and got beat up bad.

                      Cotto wasn't drained, he was actually faster and better in that fight with Pacquiao.

                      And you bringing up Cotto is lame, so basically he was drained and shot when Pac beat him, but he miraculously was revived before he fought Mayweather weigh out of his natural weight division?

                      Also you love crying catchweight, yet Floyd had a catchweight calling out Marquez and failed to make that weight, thats the worst of the WORST!

                      Hatton was shot with a new trainer? Hatton just put a boxing clinic on Paulie Maliggnaggi, he schooled him with Floyd Sr. in his corner prior to fighting Pacman. Many say that was Hattons best performance other than his fight with Kostya Tszyu.

                      And finally what do you do for a living? you seem to post on here every hour of the day dissing Pacquiao.
