    I was thinking the same thing but then again look at the outcome of Floyd vs Oscar fight. Oscar was throwing punches from all over the place while Floyd countered effectively and look how that fight ended.
    And that's a younger Floyd with better reflexes.

    I think the difference in footwork, speed and angles that Pac brings makes this a very different fight than what Floyd had with Oscar. More clinching from Floyd if they are close. It will be very interesting to see how Floyd works his timing pot shots. I see Pac getting tagged with that straight Right now and then, but I'm not so sure the left hook to the head works, maybe to the body.

    Mayweather has a rematch clause, I don't think pac does. Therefore, the only way to guarantee a rematch (another $300+ million purse) is a pac win. I suspect pac by close, controversial decision because that's just how it works.

    Pac should watch how de la hoya ( in my card) defeated Mayweather.

    If de la Hoya can do it to Mayweather, how much more the Pacman?

    If Pac blazes Mayweather early, I see a TKO in the 10 to 12 round. Mayweather hasn't seen anything like the Pacman except the Judah fight during the early rounds. Watch it guys and say to me if I am wrong.

    That's a very real possibility unfortunately...

    And that would utterly suck should that eventuate.

    Yo, @Max Power, how does Max Powerism 101 is applied to the current case?

    The age difference is only 1-2 years, I think your theory (newer is bigger & bigger is better => never is better ) finds singularity in this case and give inaccurate results
    It only works when there is generation difference between fighters )), so they could not have fought in the same time

    Pac Size < May Size
    Pac Age < May Age

    I never said that the biggest or the oldest would always win.

    Max Powerism is clearly defined as being the bigger man has an advantage to win. The most experienced fighter has an advantage to win (which is often the older one) which is proven by stats across the board.

    Experience is similar, I would even say Pac has the slightly better experiences.

    The size difference at bout will be negligible.

    Some of the size differences we are talking about in previous generation or HW otherwise comparisons are involving large differences.

    Of course cross era generations involve past boxers who even if they were of similar size and experience, they have not the same power and athleticism gained through modern training and their experiences are against smaller and bummier boxers also.

    I think Floyd will avoid Manny's attacks , clinching where necessary, but connect enough on the counter to win rounds. it will be close for the first half of the fight and Floyd will gradually pull away and realistically win by 3-4 rounds.
    Floyd may end up looking like a "mini Andre Ward", and it won't be pretty or a great fight as such. Pretty standard Floyd fight really.
    I agree.
    Floyd will be a spoiler in this close one. Fans will be crying about who hit who with the most power because he will diffuse Mannys shots and the general people and the exited fans wont see it. Floyd wont hit him as hard but he will score more and he will control the whole fight.
    Floyd could finish this late if Manny tires due to more movement, or if Manny gets frustrated;probably both, but they will want you all to pay for a second fight and maybe a third one so you will be well had one way or the other.

    Mayweather's ring IQ and counters will take over the fight by round 5.
    I'm picking Mayweather by UD, 116 - 112.

    Floyd by points, money talks, the judge know the final score already.

    Either Manny will stop Floyd in the 8th to 11th round or Floyd will win by decision.

    The referee will not stop the fight in the 12th round even if Floyd is being beaten up as long as he remains standing. But the referee will probably stop the fight if it's the other way around. Even if Pacquiao dominates, a decision will go in Mayweather's favor, similar to what happened in the Pacquiao-Bradley I fight.

    And Floyd is not going to intentionally lose this fight just to get into a second fight. He is not going to risk losing the zero and there is no guarantee that he will win the rematch.

    Nope: Op-Ed: Why no rematch clause was provided in Mayweather-Pacquiao deal

    Check the reach difference here! That can determine another controlling factor in this fight.I think Floyd has advantages on the outer and the inner game. If Manny is to catch him hard it will be in the transition.
