    It's going to be a boring Floyd points win in a right old anticlimax of a fight. Manny hasn't knocked anybody out for five or six years and he's not going to get to Floyd.

    The undercard is one fight each for Top Rank and Mayweather promotions. Lomachenko is supposed to be the Top Rank fighter and one of the Mayweather nonentities gets the third televised fight.

    If the undercards suck it will be a true shame. It's going to be hard for me not to get this fight but I will in protest. Lomachenko is good but I don't want to see Floyd fledglings.

    I'm genuinely surprised that this fight is on and so will be doubtful that it will stay on until I hear the first bell.

    As for the fight itself - ever seen Duran vs Leonard III?

    Great fun.

    If it was up to Arum and he was in the position he was ten or twenty years ago the undercard would be total garbage. But now he's looking at possibly Manny's last fight and he has the competition from Fishnets and Haymon and doesn't have any new PPV stars to promote so he needs to try and make one. Lomachenko is probably his next best thing after Manny so the chances are he'll get the undercard slot.

    If Don King was doing the show ge woould put on the under card:-

    Wlad v Wilder with the winner fighting against comeback Tyson.
    GGG v Froch winner beats up Ward
    Saul v Cotto winner gets the winner of the main event.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Since 1 of the 3 belts is super welter, what will Floyd & Pac weigh on fight night ? Big difference between the 2?

    Pac has been in more wars, more rounds & more fights.
    Pac has been stopped by face shot and body shot.

    Floyd dropped once (standing 8-when his glove touched the canvas)

    PBF looks best against (every style to date)
    PAC looks best against (aggressive fighters)

    Question(s) not yet answered:
    PBF: Can he take a flush shot from a power puncher for possibly 12 rounds
    PAC: Can he adjust to a counter puncher who is effective at tying up his foe when in close.
