Pac is always in the losing side in paper match.

I love it when he's the underdog, but when he fights he's became a beast. :blow:

You must have really loved those 2 fights (DLH and Barrera I) in the last 12 years where he was the underdog.

When has pacquiao been known to wear down in the middle rounds? Lol he's known for his crazy stamina. And hes also completely wrong hes alot different after the Marquez ko. He alot more careful and respects his opponents power a little more. Mayweather will be forced to go into a turtle shell the whole fight while pacquiao bombs away on him with combinations. Pacquiao by unanimous decision

[IMDAZED]

I tend to agree. I encourage everyone to watch Morales-Pacquiao I. Again...very telling fight.

Virgil Hunter, who trains such fighters as Andre Ward and Amir Khan, is picking WBC/WBA welterweight & junior middleweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. to defeat Manny Pacquiao, holder of the WBO welterweight title, if the two boxers ever step in the ring.

Earlier, Hunter explained how Mayweather, who turns 38-years-old in February, continues to reinvent his style as his body gets older. He feels Pacquiao, 36-years-old, is exactly the same boxer with little to no change in his fighting style.

The majority of boxers and trainers predict floyd to win. I don't think standing up to floyd is the way to beat him though. Floyd has beaten them all with all sorts of styles including the ones that hunter just described. Pac is a different animal that will give floyd problems but he will still have to be close to perfect.

Pacquiao seemed to fade a little in the first Bradley fight...not that Bradley was really hitting him with much but he seemed to take early minutes of the round off and then come on stronger towards the end...

That might have made the fight seem close...still looked like a robbery though

Pac went thru the ranks being a feeder fish. His first fight in the U.S. against
Ledwaba was in two weeks notice. Dela Hoya, margaritto, cotto these are all naturally bigger men.

I disagree with Hunter. Manny's style has changed drastically over the years and for the worse. I prefer the death by a thousand punches style that Pac had coming up in weight. Around the Oscar/Cotto fights his style became more refined: measured pace, more defense, less combination punching, etc. This version tries to box with Floyd while the old version tries to overwhelm him.
