    What fight would Pac vs Floyd be most like?

    So basically any fight in history that includes:

    An unorthodox , speedy, moves in-and-out southpaw puncher

    vs

    a fast slick defensive master boxer

    I've always felt it would be a rather boring, ugly fight. I think Floyd clinches a ton and pot shots all night.

      It would look like Floyd vs JMM. Floyd would outclass Pac & then afterwards the haters would say that Pac wasn't a real WW & the fight doesn't matter.

          Typical over exaggeration on NSB.....

          You really think Mayweather or Pacquiao are as far gone as those two were when they fought??? Floyd and Manny are still two of the best 4-5 fighters in the world.

          Lewis and Tyson weren't even close to that when they fought. It's still more like Leonard-Hagler in terms of being past prime but still good.

              Toney vs RJJ

              obviously RJJ is orthodox, but the style of fight IMO would be very similar

                Probably a boring looking fight. Floyd is never just going to stand infront of Manny for more then a few seconds. He is going to pot shot then move and Manny will have to obviously be the aggressor. Floyd is just going to circle around that left hand so Manny won't throw it.The more aggressive Manny is then the more open he is to being countered. But don't expect for it to be some type of epic showdown. No will get KO'D or stopped in this fight. When they get on the inside expect the forearm and the clinch when needed and a few uppercuts from Floyd. Manny can't really fight on the inside which is why he either clinches or always pulls his opponents head down when they get too close. I'm telling you it will be a boring fight. Maybe a easy win for Mayweather but we will never know.

                  Mayweather v Judah

                  Pacquiao would have success early, perhaps even hurt Mayweather. Mayweather makes adjustments and cruises the last few rounds.

                    Sad, sad, sad that boxing fans still have that "what would it be like, what if & who would've" all because B!T(H gayweather ducked, avoided, excuse after excuse & just plain ran from from PAC like a scared B!T(H..... Had it been any other era or (real) figher fight would of happened along time ago... Time to move on it won't happen for ONE simple reason! Floyd is a scared B!T(H... Plain & simple.
