No no no my friend. Manny Pacquiao brings something to the table that Marquez could not and thats greasy fast speed (easily compared to Mayweathers)! Pacquiao is much harder to hit than Marquez and he doesnt get knocked down like Marquez, so exactly where do you pull this Mayweather easily beating Pacquiao scenario from, your butt? Did I mention Pacquiao's knockout power?
This is true, but that alone isn't enough to beat Mayweather. But to be 100% fair, there is nobody who can match up with Mayweather.

You'll either have him against a bigger guy who he'll be faster than.

Or you'll have him against a smaller/faster guy who he'll be bigger than.

Speed & pop alone are not going to beat Mayweather. His skill is simply too much for anyone at this moment.

But I agree that this is probably the best fight that can be made (only rivaled by Mosley/Mayweather) right now. Pacquiao is at the best that he's going to be and so is Mayweather.

I'm glad that Cotto isn't getting any heat for fighting a smaller guy, so when Mayweather fights Pacquiao he won't get any heat either. (Of course I know thats not true. Haters gonna hate)
