    I agree that given the tools both fighters have the size of the ring doesn't matter a whole lot, although a smaller ring would give PAC a slight advantage and conversely a larger ring would give PBF a slight advantage. I think 16' x 16' rings should be standardized for all weight classes 154 and below and 20' x 20' rings for Middleweight and above. There really is no reason for a ring bigger than that.

    The bigger the ring is, the biggest are the chances that Mayweather might perform another classical volume of dancing with the stars. I would go with 20 x 20 as it sounds fair for everybody, being in the middle of what would advantage too much Pacman or Mayweather. a 16x16 would surely help to stir up action and excitement but I think 20x20 is the most honest compromise.

    Shouldn't a ring be circular?

    Well said mate. These 2 are the best boxers in our generation and ring size won't matter much for these 2 boxers. But I favor a smaller ring thinking it will generate more engagement and actions.
