Besides, the script may as well be written. It will be a chess match the whole way. Floyd does not have the power to KO Oscar (unless he goes for the liver, like Hopkins..... heh, heh), and Oscar does not have the skill or movement to catch and KO Floyd. Also, Oscar will be extra careful not to get caught with a lucky punch, while Floyd will do his usual posing and clowning, especially if he feels he's winning a decision.

The thing has "letdown" written all over it.
It has "Mayweather by decision" written all over it IMO.
