I expect PBF to win via a wide boring UD ... and how PBF will spin that out to PAC?
"Well PAC can only manage a draw and a split decision against JMM while me (PBF) schooled Marquez totally..."![]()

JMM gets all the credits in going up and fighting PBF... but he's a 4 to 1 underdog and I don't see him winning this fight...
BTW no one knew beforehand that Hoya is that weight drained... In fact Hoya enjoying being a 2 to 1 favorite... As I've said, stop reading too much into that fight... You're only blinded by Hoya's skeletal physique...and fail to appreciate what PAC has done impressively in that fight...
.
Yes that was Team PAC's equalizer for the massive size, height and reach advantage of Hoya... Take note, it's equalizer... People still see the fight heavily favoring Hoya (2 to 1 favorite) and they did not predicted that Hoya will be THAT weight drained... People expected Hoya to be weight drained but not THAT weight drained...![]()
Actually, DLH tore his body up so much to get down that he couldn't even get his weight back properly as on fight night he weighed 145, less than Pac. Roach pointed out that DLH have IV marks and that is a desparation attempt to hydrate someone. Before the ring entrance no one knew but DLH knew he was doomed.
He weighed a pound more than Pac in the ring actually. And I think he still probably had more muscle, he just didn't get fluids back into his system quick or effective enough. People make excuses but a great fighter like De La Hoya will put on a good show against anyone but the very best even under circumstances of duress, all great fighters do.
You really are delusional.
ODLH hadn't fought at 147 in over 6 years.
What are you blind?
I clearly said ODLH would be a corpse and he'd lose badly.
Funny that YOU above all people uses this term.
You are not blinded, You have both of your eye sockets EMPTY.
You can't see daylight if you flew straight towards the sun, riding shot gun in a shuttle.
ODLH fought at 150 just 6 months prior to PAC fight... I already explained this and I will repeat this again for your convenience... I knew that Hoya will be weight drained since I picked PAC to win and part of the reason is Hoya being weight drained BUT no one knew that Hoya will be THAT badly fucked up making weight... No one will really know not until the fight...

I've said this before but - assuming he beats Marquez - Mayweather has to fight Pacquiao.
If he does not then posterity will consider Manny the best ffighter of his generation. If Floyd comes out of retirement and beats Manny to take back his lb4lb title then he will be the greatest fighter of his generation and unbeaten to boot.
Mayweather has always been concerned about his legacy and he will NOT want to be seen as the second best fighter of his era. He has to fight Pac and he has to win - it means everything to him and I think that part of the reason he is fighting Marquez first is because what better way to prove that he really is and always has been the man than by coming out of retirement and beating first the no2 lb4lb fighter and then beating the no1. (BTW I am not saying that these fights are a foregone conclusion, just guessing that this is Mayweather's thinking).
Put simply, no way is Floyd ducking Manny - he can't afford not to fight him if he wants to be considered the greatest fighter of his era... And he does want this, he wants this so bad he is coming out of retirement and risking his undefeated record to try to get it. Despite what a lot of people say about him ducking fights, that my friends shows balls.

I can see this fight happening exactly the same way as the first Mayweather- Castillo fight with Marquez doing most of the work and catching Floyd with the better shots but Mayweather getting a dodgy decision. They'll rematch at the end of the year and Floyd will totally school him.
