first of all...
pac's current list includes
larios
morales III
barrera II (for a title!!)
- he needs to close this chapter of his career first before even thinking a fight with floyd...

2nd
considering the big possibility of many beating barrera and being the new champ...
will he and floyd be that stupid to vacate their respective titles just to entertain us?!!!

3rd
i also think this fight could happen only if floyd losses to ODH
and pac losing to MAB
- this will ressurect the career of either one of them and will possibly end the fame and hype of the other...

now comments on the fight...(if it happens)
boxing is mainly about cleverness, power, speed, chin and heart....
other factors such as stamina, height, reach etc.. are subordinates...
the only main advantage of floyd is his boxing IQ.. we all know his one of the smartest of all time..
he and pac may have the same speed.
about the chin and heart... ill give pac the edge..

chin
- the only guy who scored a knockdown against floyd was carlos hernandez
- carlos hernadez fought EM, morales shook-off his best punches
does morales had a granite chin? hell yeah! outstanding chin.. he even absorb raheems right...
- now look whos the first fighter who koed EM? coincidence? PAC
remember round2 of the pac-EM2?

*whos the harder puncher pac or hernandez?
*if hernandez knockdowned floyd, how about pac?
*since pac fought at the big stage against the elites, did he ever hit the canvass?

power
-pac is one of the hardest hitters in any weight division, he has a one punch power
morales and barrera are just too tough and brave that they lasted for long against him..
-floyd doesnt have a one punch ko... back at his superfeatherweight days, he all won by TKO..
-pacs ideal weight at fightime is 142... that means eating a lot after the official weigh-in... that means its not muscle but just baggage for stability... if he adds another 5 pounds of muscle that means more power more speed...
-floyd will go down from 147 to 135, that means smaller and less muscles thus lesser power...
hell just be his old self if he fights pac at 135, only with additional experiences...
back at the days when hes at 130, he does TKO his opponents, mainly due to the stoppage of the opponents cornermen or the referee... so does he have real power?! its just the barrage of punches that made him such a ko artist...

*can pac take his punches? hell yeah..
*can he take pacs power? questionable

heart
-you know whos more relentless

so to all who are saying that this is a bad fight(will this ever happen?) for pac, think again...
i dont want my boy floyd to take this, hell gain nothing against the high risk...

he must concentrate on fights that wont cause a loss like suicide...
like the upcoming ODH fight, both of them surely wins.

great point cc for that..adding to what you have pointed out...pac sparrs against welterweights too and yes he drops them like flys...what floyd had always have against his oppenent was speed pac can match that plus pac is relentless...so what else is their for floyd...the weight? we don't know for sure because it could be worst draining himself to go down 135 then pac coming up...so what about pacs defence? can floyd stop pac for 12 rounds because pac has continues head movement side to side a new look for floyd...and pacs offence has proven to much for his oppenents....

...HIGH RISK FOR FLOYD LOW REWARD not a bad fight for PAC but a bad fight for floyd...i'd love to see this happen...
