    Default Re: Mayweather needs new challenges

    Oddly enough, after all these years, the 2 fighters that I would be interested in seeing PBF fight are...JMM and PacMan.

    1. JMM's a differnet fighter now. He's bulked up and comfortable at welter. He's also smart, and may adjust his strategy accordingly.

    2. PacMan: if he's not shot, he always has a punchers chance (hell, JMM looked like he was ready to go). Being a big-underdog might help, he has a swarming style and PBF prefers a slow pace, and PBF offers him the only opportunity to effectively erase the JMM KO, besides JMM himself of course.

    And I think smaller fighters bring out the best in PBF at this stage in his career. He's likes to muscle opponents around during the infighting, and tends to intimidate them by throwing head-snapping counters. Power, even if its not KO power, is a much bigger part of his game than folks realize.

    Against Canelo, he did this in the middle rounds, but spent a lot more time running at the end. In the early rounds, he was jabbing a lot, which is unusual for him. I think the size difference made him more tentative.
