Floyd is a pretty good fighter but I don't see him doing anything except committing seppukku to save his long-lost image. Arum has sold the world the idea that the fight needs to happen but only to make Floyd finally fight, and he has succeeded. Floyd won't give Pac any legacy, except another Hatton-like fight except that Floyd will run away instead of coming in so Pac will have to corner him.

    Also, you are right on the internet. I wouldn't pay the 50 bucks to get cable, 200 for the box and 55 more to get the fight. The cheapest option is to go to a sports bar. Economy has been real bad. More reasonable prices would skyrocket sales.
    Please explain...? It's just I must be missing something because I personally think a win against Floyd is an un-replicable diamond on the legacy of ANY fighter under 160 pounds... He was undisputed P4P number one in the world, and many experts said believed the best P4P of the last decade... He is still unbeaten, has not shown any diminishing of his skills since his P4P number one ranking.....

    Floyd IS the biggest name that Pac can add to his legacy under 160 pounds....

    I don't see how anyone could claim any different? If someone can though, please explain incase i'm missing something... But as I see it right now, an unbeaten P4P best fighter of the last decade not being any sort of notable addition to someone's legacy is just crazy talk...

    -- Regardless of how they fight (eg running), if Pac is good enough he will win, and just because Floyd is said to run, doesn't take anything away from anyone who can beat him..


    You have to realise that you can take ANY fighters connect percentage for their career, and pretty much divide that by 1/3 against Floyd... Possibly more.... Can Pac connect enough on Floyd to cause him trouble? No other fighter ever has... That is why is will be a gigantic credit to Manny to beat Floyd.. And i'm going insane hearing people discount what a win against Floyd would mean to ANNNNNNYYYYY fighter... Let alone Pac who is on the top of the world at the moment, and a win of Floyd will put him into inhuman class... It is the ONLY fight that will put him in that class....

    Don't doubt,, no matter who Pac fights next, if it's not Floyd, people will still be staying that Floyd is the fight he needs to take.. Because it is. For every reason there is in boxing. Money, Challenge, Legacy, Respect, everything...
