If Floyd/Pac get into a slugfest, ala Hagler/Hearns....

[Spicoli]

Doubt it will but if a semi improved fighter moving up and rocked on occasion like Maidana can force a brawl with effect, see no reason why Manny isn't much sharper and sturdy. Mayweather is a great boxer..but ffs he isn't getting into a brawl by choice here. He has been caught with some 'dumb' punches also and out muscled in spots. Not like he is a ghost or something. Not made yet ? But becoming very interested

MAKE THE FOOKIN FIGHT ALREADY YOU TWO

The last thing I would expect to see is Floyd in a brawl, slugfest, all out war, or anything else resembling an out of control fight. That is unless it's outside of the ring. Lol.
I'm not saying he can't be forced into uncomfortable situations on occasion, but it would never be consensual. When Floyd is under heavy pressure, he goes into defensive mode. You are not going to see Floyd exchanging toe-to-toe, wether it's in a corner, on the ropes, or in the middle of the ring!

I thought Floyd had to fight to get his first title against Hernandez. And while Corley isn't a powerpuncher he isn't featherfisted either: Floyd didnt even try to box in that one, that was a very entertaining scrap.

The absolute last thing Floyd is going to do is let this turn into a slugfest. Floyd will use that laser right hand to counter everything Manny brings and Floyd's defence will do the rest. I don't think the fight will come anywhere near to the hype it's going to get. I can see Floyd doing a lot of spoiling.

Floyds chin is suspect and untested. It did get tested against zab and mosely, and we saw how he looking when they landed. Pacs chin is battle tested. Floyd doesnt carry the bombs toko pac, but pac does.

Pac ko if they slug it out.....which floyd will not

Yeah tested and it broke, he's been knocked out 3 times in his career. Floyd has taken bombs and has stayed upright every time, and when hurt (like vs Mosley) has always kept his composure and weathered the storm.

this would be the best possible thing that could happen

if it did happen then the fight would be remembered as fight of the century

it would be up there in history with fights like hagler hearns, foreman ali and moore macklin

SRL / Duran first fight SR came out flat footed which pretty much shocked everyone. Watching "No Mas" SR basically said Duran got into his head and that standing flat foooted was a mistake. PBF wants everyone to see his persona as the smart boxer so I doubt he'll make the same mistake. But hypothetically, it would be very satisfying to watch. Floyd hasnt taken much punishment over the years so I think he would have more stamina but it also brings Pacquiao out making it very difficult to predict the outcome.
