    Pac needs to come in putting full faith of his life in God's hands and just go beserk on Mayweather.

        I think Floyd will win, but he will definitely not do it by walking Pac down. Floyd won't risk exposing himself like that... He's not imposing enough to do it... Manny won't be scared enough of his power.

          Wow someone being intelligent for once. People think that Floyd "walking Pacquiao down" means that he's going to go face first into Pacquiao's fist lol. Floyd will walk Pacquiao down at certain times, he usually does especially against smaller opponents like Zab Judah.

          But the main reason is that Pacquiao can't really fight going backwards. If you watch when Marquez or Bradley come forward and attack against him, he just shells up and walks back in a straight line. I expect Floyd to take advantage of that.

            You better bet Floyd has told his team not to stop the fight under any conditions... I can't imagine the tantrum Floyd pulls if either his team or the ref prematurely stops the fight... It'll be the meltdown to end all meltdowns...

              I've never liked the Maidana hype here but the difference is Maidana possessed the jab to back Mayweather up, that coupled with an overhand right with the kind of arch to get over Mayweather's shoulder. In applying both those tools Maidana used his physicality to keep Mayweather cornered, use his free hand if need be, get dirty as well.

              Does Pacquiao possess that kind of physicality? No. Is he dirty? No. Does he have a good enough jab to find the same success? No offense, no. Is it in him to work the free hand? I rarely ever see that with Pacquiao.

              I'd never rule Pacquiao out but people need to get real.

                Pacquiao will love it if Floyd comes to him, his lateral movement will keep Floyd offset while fires in quick combos

                  People misunderstand what walking down and backing up an opponent means. Floyd's not going to be walking face first into punches like Margaritio. There are other ways to back him up.

                    I can see Floyd's best work being on the inside. Manny inside game is decent at best.
                    Decision, KO, close, easy work?
