If Manny can keep the pace for 12 rounds, then this is going to be a tough ask for Floyd too. People always underestimate Manny and I am guilty as charged too. I've been watching a lot of Manny fights recently and now truly appreciate him and it was always hard as he was beating up Barrera and Hatton. Time heals and he was great. I hope he can still be great and hopefully retire with a great win rather than going on too long like all too many do.

    I've been watching Manny's fights since he started and I was wondering why people had been underestimating him. Especially with his fight against Barrera. I was sure that he would knock Barrera but people couldn't see it. I was a lone voice during those times. Probably, I was the lone pactard here. I was ridiculed then when I said Manny's going to be a great fighter.

    Now, in this fight with Mayweather, I know that if Pac's would simply do his "in and out" fight, he will knock Mayweather out.

    Cant see it myself bro but good luck I hope you are right.
    I hope to at least see Floyd hurt and rethinking I want to see him fully tested.

    Bro, it's weird that, just like Pacfan, I feel that this will be an easy fight for Pac. Mayweather's defense will certainly fall with Pac's handspeed and weird angles. Pac's punching power may have diminished in effect as he goes up in weight but you can't deny it as he was knocking his opponents (Rios, etc.) even in the welterweight. Imagine its effect on Mayweather if he is knocked down. He hasn't been in that situation before.

    Floyd has height and reach advantage and he will sit back and use that for 12 rounds if he could because he is a boring boxer who can not and is not interested in entertaining any fans.

    PAC Man has to initiate the fight but will be scared of making a mistake.

    The fight may end up a borefest with moments of excitement.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    This means only one thing: that Floyd think that Manny can actually hit him and hit him hard, and the only way he can counter that is to do just that, trying to out-punch him by being aggressive. To me this could be a sign of desperation on his part. But there is one thing I'm a bit concerned about. It's Floyd's sneaky and quick jab/straight to the body. He does it so well so I hope Pac will be ready for it.
    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.

    Just because he doesn't entertain you doesn't mean he isn't entertaining to others, I love watching two guys beat the shit out of each other but I also really enjoy watching a pure boxer like floyd the guys a genius in the ring.
