Why would Mayweather be scared of Pacquiao?

[Mar]

Neither guy is scared of the other........both of these guys are great fighters and that's why it's silly to constantly hear fans shit on one guy just because your favorite happens to be the other. These guys are fighters they couldn't even be in this buisness and be so successful if they were afraid of other fighters. Pac is plowing through guys and floyd has people acting like some big feat was done cause shane hit him twice in a twelve round fight that he probably won every minute of outside of those two punches. I personally belive pac and for that matter every other fighter out there right now has very little chance of beating floyd but you'll have to search hard to find anywhere i've bashed the guy. One guy will win one will loose, then we move on..... Having your favorite fighter beat a guy you called crap in the first place doesn't prove very much.

Pacquiao is plowing through guys who are tailor made for him. Guys who stand there and take his shots like Cotto or Clottey, or a guy who walks in defenseless and usually uses speed as his greatest asset in Hatton. Roach has stylistically matched Pacquiao up much better in much more oppertunistic circumstances, but I've never said Pacquiao is crap, I think he is higher up the rankings p4p on the ATG list even though Mayweather is vastly superior boxer/fighter. I just have come to realize 95% of the boxing world doesn't appreciate the subtle nuances of the sport that Mayweather that very few fighters have ever done, not just defensively, but the angles he takes, how well rounded his game is, the way he reads opponents, nullifies their offense.

I agree with that 100%... He is really special in that regard... But if he didn't hand pick his opponents as well, then I think more of boxing would appreciate that aspect of him as much as you do...

I'm not sure why Floyd would be "scared" of anyone (or Manny for that matter). Both guys are in top form and they have excellent skill....but there is a HUGE amount of money and respect to be made here and something is stopping the fight from happening and it not only hurts the two fighters it hurts the entire sport.
