Is this the nail in the coffin of Pac/Mayweather?

Mosley was gassed after two against Floyd and I would agree that it was all down to Floyd adjusting had it not been for the Mora performance as well. Mosley looked gassed for half of that too.

Pacquiao doesn't gas, he just keeps that pressure on you. It would be harder to land clean against Floyd, but Floyd isn't superman. Hatton was keeping him semi honest for half the fight and Hatton isn't a patch on Manny. Manny has two hands, is faster, stronger, has better chin. And good point Diz, he's also a southpaw, which Mayweather hasn't always looked the most comfortable against.

He is a monster. He will destroy you if you go to war with him and he will outwork you if you cover up and wait. He's just too good right now.

It very well could be... the last nail to seal the doom for this purported matchup. A fight like this, the Pac performance, could evince a few shakes and and a few rattle-balls for the one in dire effort of keeping the "0", and the fight every fans dreamabout' may very well be as pronounced as ever, a "Maynever"!

There is so much wasted energy in the air in giving PBF Jr the justification, all hollowed to everyone but they, in avoiding a fight with Pac. Everyone needs to just remove the pass they voluntarily provide to coax this guy to prove his perceived greatness in the ring! Where it really holds true!

Come off the imaginary pedestal Floyd Jr., sign and just fight...

I'd go the Roy Jones Jr route to give a "horse's mouth" perspective on this topic.

RJJ on....

All the points on each side of the conversation are what make this fight so compelling. The answer is only in one place - in the ring.

Both are superb athletes. Floyd's timing, balance and boxing intelligence give him he advantage, is my opinion.

As always, and as one poster has already recognized - a victory over Floyd for Pac would be huge for Pac and for boxing history. A victory over Manny by Mayweather ... ho hum, what did you expect?

That is an indication, if not a measure, of a sort of subconscious recognition by the boxing world that we do take Floyd's greatness for granted. All the conversation about who can beat him, and how he can be beaten, is rather academic.

I'm not saying Floy'd unbeatable. Not at all.

I'm saying that Floyd is the guy. Hope to see him prove it against Pac ... in the ring.
