    Me chosing Pac wouldn't be so fun so I decided to look for some reasons why I should vote for Floyd...
    ...but I couldn't find any.

    I've noticed many fans here underestimating Pac so I'm putting up some tidbits on every post of mine here re pac/flo...
    I was watching post fight interviews of Mosley for both his Floyd and Pac fights and clearly his face was much more marked, his cheeks swollen and both eyes puffed up after Pac fight than Floyd's. And the more important thing here is that Pac was fight a fighter who was running backwards most of the time after 2 rounds...
    Once in awhile, get outside in fresh air, take a deep breath & with a deep sigh, let out all the things that's bottled up inside you & be free, & you'll get a glimpse of nirvana.

    But those were two different Mosleys.

    The Mosley Floyd fought was coming from a big win against Margarito and everyone said Mayweather wont fight because he's scared but Mosley was old all of a suddden when Floyd won. That Mosley was still able to pull the trigger like he did twice in the second round.

    The Mosley that Pac fought was coming off a loss with Floyd and a Draw with Sergio Mora. It was clear in the Pac fight that Mosley was old and couldn't pull the trigger anymore but still managed to make Pac miss a shit load.

    How would Pac have handled a situation where Mosley belted him with two huge shots and had him on queer street like Mayweather was? Would he have survived? Gone down? or gone to sleep like he did with Marquez? We don't know, but we will find out who is better on May 2nd. No excuses.

    I don't like the equation of he beat him worst so he would win. Bottom line is Pac vs May is the best vs the best and what they did to common opponent won't matter May 2nd. It's what they do to each other that night. Who's style will prove dominant over the other.

    I think people are underestimating pacs countering ability and floyds brawling ability. These kind's of fight tend to show and force the better fighter to go onto a different gear or arsenal.

    Maybe we see floyd walk manny down or we see a brilliant counter punch combo by pac stopping floyd.

    Nobody knows.

    I want Manny to win it and think he'll surprise Mayweather with his own speed and accuracy. But in the end Mayweather will slip slide and glide his way to a decision and fans will moan about how it should have happened 5 yrs ago, like we're doing before the bell rings now

    Manny and accuracy don't belong in the same sentence.

    Not sure about that but same can be said of about Cotto if you use the same reasoning. All I can say is that after the kd, Mos had been running all the way and how the heck will he be able to land big shots if he was running scared. And believe me only the very best puncher can catch a running fighter. Pac did that also to Algieri who was running on reverse gear for the entire 12 rounds and knocked him 4-5 times. What I'm trying to say here is don't underestimate Pac...
    Once in awhile, get outside in fresh air, take a deep breath & with a deep sigh, let out all the things that's bottled up inside you & be free, & you'll get a glimpse of nirvana.
