How can 147 be a catch-weight? that is Welter weight.

SENOjatim, name me one person in the sport who gets hit less than Floyd!!My point is Floyd’s style is to avoid being hit, meaning he isn’t going to sit there and take any unnecessary punishment just to test someones power. I take nothing away from Pac but some of his so called fans are over the top. You may not like Floyd’s style but I think more than anything people do not like her persona but that doesn’t take away from his skill set.

motownhitman…do you really think Floyd have mastered the art of not being hit? He was caught at times by JMM, it’s just that JMM’s punches are softies. Let’s see if he gets hit by Manny, then he will enjoy the art of sleeping.

mayweather will win because when pacman flurries he leaves his head wide open mayweather will counterpunch everything!!! mayweather is brilliant! and pacman wont get too many hits because the way mayweather tucks his chin into his shoulder and he rolls with all the punches and dnt forget bout moneys right hand leads and another thing about money is he can fight walking backwards UNLIKE COTTO..

I am a Pacquiao fan but I think Mayweather will win on points. He is a very slick fighter and just as fast. He is also an excellent counter puncher, may be more so than Marquez who gave Pacquiao plenty of trouble. Pacquiao takes some time to get going and by the time he realizes it, Maywether will be leading 4 rounds to 0 and then it will all be Mayweather’s slick defense because Pacquiao will be risking it more after losing the first few rounds and we all know how good Mayweather is at counterpunching. Miguel Cotto won the first round against Pacquiao and he was also ahead in both rounds 3 and 4 before the knock downs in those rounds. Cotto was also leading in the 5 and 6 round but it was a little too late because Pacquiao had the confidence after the 2 knock downs. Let’s put Mayweather in place of Cotto. He will be ahead in the early rounds and then Manny has to knock down Mayweather to steal the early rounds just like the cotto fight. Manny should be aggresive from the get go and mix it up. He must be at par on points after the early rounds otherwise it will be too late before he knows it. If Mayweather wins the early rounds, Manny has to knock Mayweather and that is a hard thing to do because Mayweather will just run and be defensive. That is how I see the fight. But Roach is intelligent and I hope he gets Manny firing at the sound of the bell on the first round. Mayweather can not hurt Pacquiao. Mix it up from the get go. Just like he did with Barrera, Marquez, Hatton. No time to study the opponent, because, it will be Manny’s fighting spirit that will win this fight for him.

For a start it wont be in March thats definate. April will be wishful thinking aswel. May is feasable but with the magnitude of it all theres gunna be long complicated negotiations and so i think June is more likely. It will be at full welterweight limit and of course it will be in Vegas! MGM Grand is the one nowadays. Silly point to make where!? Its not gunna be in the phillipines is it you moron! It will definatly be MGM Grand in Vegas. Mayweather by UD

Why do you call it a “catch weight” of 147? The welterweight limit IS 147 pounds, so its NOT a catch weight. I think that the final deal will include some sort of “BONUS” for the winner. I think that it will reward the winner with 60 percent of the proceeds. Pacman will win.

Mayweather will go down as the best runner of all time, Manny will retire him by late Tko he can not run for 12rounds

If floyd is really a smart boxer/businessman as he says he is, this is the best time for him to face Pacman because Cotto had already softened up Manny for him. Just put more power to those left hooks of his and focus them on Mannys broken right ear.

boxing fan..the object in boxing is “hit and not be hit” which Floyd does better than anyone else in the game.
