Genetics doesn't make you spar 20 5 minute rounds against Lovemore N'dou and Carlos Baldomir nearly everyday. Nobody gets in better shape than Mayweather, nobody trains harder.
Agreed, one of Floyd's greatest attributes is his mentality. He sticks to a gameplan regardless of boos and kept his cool when bedlam was going on during the Judah match, could have taken Hatton out sooner but didn't try to force th KO. IMO the natural physical attributes of speed and power favours Pac in this fight, although Floyd should be bigger and stronger.
Their speed is pretty much the same except, Mayweather is harder to counter. I just think Pacquiao's power allows his speed to be more impressive because opponents can't walk straight in on him nor can they walk through punches the same way.
