"Most importantly is who has the better mind in the fight, who launches their attacks better, and uses their defense better, which Floyd Mayweather knows how to do well and Pacquiao must improve on. "
too late for all that.Comment

Let me 1st say that I am Flyod fan . I admire his ring intelligence and brilliance . Having said that , I had a chance to THOROUGHLY watch the canelo fight again , and I honestly had it about a draw along with that outcasted ref that also scored it a draw . Flyod truly dismantles some fighters like Guerrero and Marquez , but when I re watched the Canelo fight without the phony commentary I honestly saw a different fight . When I watched it live I was caught in the moment cheering for him ect ect . But when I went back and thoroughly watched it with the volume down , I wasn't impressed at all . Much of the lopsided scoring was based on Canelo's frustrated body language whereas Flyod maintained a look of confidence throughout but really did little in the fight except shoe shine s..t , much of his work was fluff . this fight seemed Aura based . Canelo's body language didnt sell anything but a loss , he looked dejected cause he really couldn't seen to hit Flyod . But Flyod really didn't find him either so he should of sold a different look . I had rounds 2,6,8,9,10,12 for Alverez based on work ethic . I know this won't be a popular postComment

Standing in front o someone who is slower and doesn't have power while shoulder rolling isn't taking a risk.
Opening himself up to try and close the show is taking risks but instead Floyd ALWAYS settled for pot shotting his opponents for 9 rounds. You call that taking risks? GTFOH!Comment

I can agree with this to an extent . Flyod use to have a mean streak , he used to get mad and finish fighter like Gotti and Diego Coralez but now he's seems to be more into showmanship . he could of easily put Guerrero down but decided not to . There was a time in that fight where he hit Guerrero with like 4 hard right hands in a row and Guerrero couldn't see any of them , but he let up and let him go to 12 . I also think that the way he fights now may be a response to adjusting his marketability . He'll go one fight without getting hit at all , like against Guerrero . Then the networks may address it as a problem affecting views , so then he'll fight a Cotto and allow Cotto to appear formittable . Floyd although still very talented , has become a trickster/ politicianComment

Marquez don't know **** about boxing.
All the experts here are predicting a 38 year old Floyd to walk down the one fighter in the world who no trainer in their right mind would advise that strategy against (especially one as defensively oriented as Floyd Sr). Look for Floyd to press the action and for Manny to just stand in place flat-footed and take it.Comment

Floyd still has PLENTY of legs , it's just that he uses them contingent on who exactly he's fighting . Pre-fight Guerrero kept talking bout how Floyd's legs were gone so Floyd decided to make him look foolish and Guerrero didnt connect one flush time the whole fight . Guerrero's whole strategy was to catch Floyd with a counter shot but every counter shot was a split second offComment
