    "Manny winning via KO is one of most statistically improbable outcomes for this fight."

    The buster douglas reference was for that quote.
    Well why would you feel the need to cite one of the (if not the) biggest upsets in boxing history when saying Manny can KO Floyd? I agree Manny winning via KO is a highly unlikely outcome, do you agree that it is one of the least likely outcomes of this fight?

      Mayweather is much more intuitive when it comes to finding his shots.
      Manny just isn't hard to find with that shot at all. If he were facing some of the divisions bigger punchers Maidana,Thurman even a guy like Porter I would imagine a big part of their camp would be working on landing that particular shot with everything behind it... And IMO it would work.

        I think Floyd knocking Manny out Is even more unlikely and a knockout happening at all Is very very unlikely.

        Floyd probably wins this fight by close decision. Somewhere In the neighborhood of 7 rounds to 5.

          Think you got that back ass wards. Wasn't It the Mayweathers that claimed Pacquiao was on roids?

            I didn't cite that "when saying manny can ko floyd".... I cited it for "Manny winning via KO is one of most statistically improbable outcomes for this fight." I've seen time and time again floyd fans saying that this cant happen because "floyd has never been ko'd and never been on his ass"... just like you were saying previously. But I do agree however it is a least likely outcome of the fight yes.

              Well then why are so many people picking Manny via KO/TKO if anyone with an ounce of boxing knowledge and a fully functional brain recognizes it as a highly unlikely outcome?

                Pacquiao by decision.

                I think his southpaw stance and his punch output is going to be too much for Mayweather.

                    Yep and if anything Mayweather is more likely to get Pacquiao out of there too.

                      Because it's a very lucrative bet, if by small chance you win. It's a risk, a risk that people with Money to play with are willing to take.
