    It's too risky for Floyd. He'll never go for it. He'll probably go back to retirement and wait until somebody else makes Manny look bad so he can say that Manny was never a real threat to his skills in the first place

    Floyd's a chicken

    That's what you get when you're hyped up to the point where you get to fight fighters out of your league
    Yes, but Cotto is by-and-large better then the rest, and there is (was) money to be made, especially with all the class-jumping going on.

    True enough, but while Manny has occasionally been less-than-sterling against lesser opponents, what Mayweather says and what the boxing public chooses to think are two different things.

    Fight him or retire (again), Floyd.

    This is a thread about a sports event, the result is obviously going to be a part of it.

    I think Maywhether would win by decision if they fought. He will not knock Pacquiao out. If he fights like he used to then I can't see Pacquiao knocking out or out boxing Floyd. As greedy and cautious as Maywether is being, is more about the money. They will throwdown. Bet it. Pac man is a beast but Maywether is one of the best counter punchers in boxing. Would be a great fight.

    Yea you got it exactly right. I also don't think Mayweather will be able to knock paq out and I have a feeling that Paq will be outboxed if he decided to make it a boxing match.
    Mayweather is very very hard to knock out because of his defensive skills but we have seen that he can be beat if enough pressure is put on him (the Judah and Castillo fight) so the only way Paq would be able to beat him is by showing tremendous workrate and by tagging him with fast punches and moving out so he doesn't get counter-punched

    This is an easier fight for Myweather but If Paq gives it everything he's got and plays his cards right, he can win.

    the thread was asking for a link to the fight not the results thanks for ruining it for me and others.
