Your extreme bias prevents you from making a logical analysis. Anyone who thinks it's going to be an easy fight for either guy are selling themselves short. I'm hoping they bring the best out of each other so we can get a rematch, and possibly even a rubber match.

Nacho is changing course. A month ago, Pacquiao will beat FMJ. Now FMJ has 65% chance of beating Pacquiao. Too low I think. Bettors think Mayweather has a 75% chance of winning.

Check your math.

Yea he's inferior unless you feel Zab is better than Pac.

A prime Judah is a more schooled fighter than Manny unless you are a dunce to boxing. Judah fought through the amateur ranks. Manny has the more successful careers. More technical or superior doesn't always translate to more success. Judah is an underachiever. With that said, the problem Judah (prime Judah) posed to Mayweather will be different from the one Manny will pose to Floyd due to fact the only thing they have in common his their being southpaw. Floyd didn't have problem with Judah because Judah is southpaw, however, his issue was that Judah was a good technical fighter albeit a mental midget. Judah has a good jab, sets up punches from behind better, and has more defensive skills. Again, we are talking about a prime Judah. Manny doesn't have a good jab and rarely uses one, because he is usually too eager to rush in with power punches. If Mayweather chooses to fight technical and patient, it will be like Lewis/Tyson or Lewis/Tua, where the shorter reach opponent without a jab is being pick apart from the outside, running into power shots to make a fight. Get too close and he will be tied up. Come May 2nd, we will see why styles make fight.

Terrible comparison examples! Tyson was washed up by the time he fought Lewis, and Tua was a one-dimensional left-hooker. Neither is the case with Pacquiao. He's past-prime, but so is Mayweather, yet both men are still dangerous. P.S. if Judah is such a better schooled fighter than Pacquiao, why wasn't his career more successful?

Lol ya I wasn't on board with the comparisons to a 6'6 monster vs two 5'10 guys.

[Derranged]

I still say its 50/50.

I wouldn't waste time trying to explain to these people on here. One day Floyd is going to knocked out then he wins it was a cherry pick, Floyd stays silent he's scared, Floyd talks he's scared, Floyd says what advantages he has it means he's nervous wtf? Lol Manny does not have a jab that left is his best shot, no illegal wraps and no PEDs is going to get Manny out of here.

Judah was not in his prime when he faced Floyd. He lost the fight.before and was 7-5 after it. You're delusional if you think Judah was better than Pac man. And don't make excuses for Judah if you feel he.didn't live up to his potential.

You're obviously just looking at box rec because Judah was not past his prime against Mayweather.


With your logic Bradley was past his prime against Pacquiao considering his performances since the first fight.
