    I've gotta say I'd never thought I'd say this but I say if they fight, Mayweather gets KO'd by Manny.  I'm guessing Floyd would still be a slight favorite, but I'd put my entire bankroll on Manny. 
     
    What do you guys think?

    Took Mayweather 8 rounds to k.o. hatton
    Took Manny 2 rounds
     
    Took Mayweather 12 rounds to defeat Delahoya
    Took Manny 5.
     
    (Not sure if those numbers are accurate)
     
    But you get what I'm saying.  I know a+b doesn't = c.  But you gotta factor that into your decision.

       Would be Floyd's toughest fight, but Pac-man won't be facing a washed up De La Hoya or an over-rated Hatton.    Floyd in a close decision.

    No, that doesn't work at all here, Mayweather wears you down and outpoints you, he's not a knockout guy, Pacman is a knockdown guy so of course his fights are going to last longer.

    IF Mayweather is somehow still as good now as he used to be, he would likely win a fight, but if he's half a step slow, Manny will kill him.  It will be a ridiculously good fight though if Floyd is at his best

    Leaning on Pacman coz he's in his prime. I really dont care who you throw against him now coz he is in his prime. Mayweather no the other hand, I really don't like his style. Too boring. Always backs off, leans back, runs away... just too boring. He wins. But I just don't like his boring style. This is boxing, and he is not playing it as it should be.

    He NEVER "runs" away. It's called mastering range. You know, I can slip your punch and counter with ease. Actually, Ali made the 2" miss famous.

    I don't enjoy his mouth. However, if I was an elite level fighter.... I would be EXACTLY like him. These guys bust their ass for the money. Mayweather was blessed with the talent and genes to do it. I would be a shitbag Ferrari driving dope too.

    Nobody ever talks about his work outside the ring. He does more charity work than anyone in the LV area. 99% of what we see is bullshit. It all sells a fight. No more, no less.

    Leaning on Pacman coz he's in his prime. I really dont care who you throw against him now coz he is in his prime. Mayweather no the other hand, I really don't like his style. Too boring. Always backs off, leans back, runs away... just too boring. He wins. But I just don't like his boring style. This is boxing, and he is not playing it as it should be.


    He NEVER "runs" away. It's called mastering range. You know, I can slip your punch and counter with ease. Actually, Ali made the 2" miss famous.

    I don't enjoy his mouth. However, if I was an elite level fighter.... I would be EXACTLY like him. These guys bust their ass for the money. Mayweather was blessed with the talent and genes to do it. I would be a shitbag Ferrari driving dope too.

    Nobody ever talks about his work outside the ring. He does more charity work than anyone in the LV area. 99% of what we see is bullshit. It all sells a fight. No more, no less.

    Someone in here said they met Floyd a while back and said he was as nice as can be.

    I like both of them . Manny is one of my favorites . Floyd I appreciate more than like. I think he avoided a lot of guys though.
     I think him signing to fight JMM when he could have waited til tomorrow and signed to fight Manny is his way of avoiding him for a while

    So what r you gonna say when Pacquiao destroy's PBF?  He shoulda stayed retired too?   Get off th pipe already.  Floyd's too old and washed up to dodge a fighter who's CLEARLY in his prime.

    Key point here...

     Hatton came into this fight at 140 and he looked starched because the  140 pound limit he cannot make  because his life outside the ring doesn't allow it, alcohol, bad training habits caught up to him. Let's not forget .. he was UNDEFEATED when he fought Floyd, after Floyd exposed him, mentally it was all over, you can see his fight since Floyd, he was NOT the same!

    Now Oscar came in a FRESH 150 pounds for that fight against Floyd,  for Pac-man he came in at 142 and looked as if he had aids! Sorry that's the way he looked!

    Manny is a GREAT fighter I LOVE HIM as a fighter, puts 100 % into his fights, and he has gotten better each fight with his boxing skills.

    This is the first time in a LONG time we can say we will see a POUND for POUND fight, because BOTH of these guys are TOP NOTCH and I have Floyd as #1 and Manny as #2 in rankings!

    Floyd is a master, people love to hate him, hey I know I did. But he is a great defensive fighter, and a MASTER counter puncher. He has stinging punches, and blazing speed (faster than Manny).

    Floyd is one of the few fighters left that can roll punches, and make people look silly, James Toney was great at it in his prime!

    This is a great fight, Manny will not be "disposed of easily", he has NO QUIT in him. Any way you slice is Floyd wins, he is better in every category on the boxing menu!

    One bright spot for Pac-man- Takes Floyd a bit of time to adjust to SOUTHPAWS.

    This is in NO way any disrespect to Pac-Man I love him, he's a great guy and gives his all to boxing.. I would pick Pac-man to win against almost anyone, but this ONE GUY Named  FLOYD.

    Another tid-bit, Floyd is fighting Marquez, who in my eyes BEAT pac-man the first time, and was probably a draw the second time.

    Now people can say that was at 130, Marquez is moving up to 147, which is just dumb, because he got tagged over and over against a pillow punching Juan Diaz at 135.  I love Marquez, but he is best at 130, even though I had him against Diaz..

    I also pointed out Marquez better stop chasing the Pac-man ghost that haunts him and go BACK DOWN to 130 because any hard punching 135 pounder would have KNOCKED Marquez out that night.

    147 is a laugher, Marquez is the best at 130, he needs to stay there, jumping up TWO weight divisions is possibly the end of his career.

    Floyd is a genius take the guy who many feel beat pac-man and BEAT HIM easily, a MEGA-Pay day and a PPV, then the fans want to SEE Pac-man Mayweather.. and Floyd in two fights will make such an amazing amount of money I want to cry lol!

    Pac-man is great, Floyd is the BEST.

    C'mon is this a joke. It's like asking Iron Mike Tyson my favorite boxer of all time to knockout Holly field who was still in his prime, at that fight in Memphis.Both fighters in their prime I would take Iron Mike. Both fighter in their prime I would slightly lean to mayweather because he's a black dude. PACman would easily take out Mayweather at this point, who hasn't fought since that Delahoya debacle. The Pacman is just too fast and strong right now, something I haven't seen in the light weights ever!

    Good feedback here guys.  I'm not going to pretend I know it all about boxing, but you guys all brought up some interesting points.  I hope this fight happens.  I'll definitely be going to vegas if and when it does to watch it.
     
    One thing that a few of you said I kind of am not sure about though.  Floyd is 32, are you saying he's out of his prime at this age?

    Can you imagine if they put it together on Dec 25, 2009?

    It'll go down as the biggest fight in history money wise.

    Would be a dream matchup to have these two guys fighting. Although I think the Marquez matchup for floyd will be tougher then people think. Coming off a little layoff, Floyd still looked in shape, but you just don't know with his lifestyle and amount of money that hes made how hes been living. Sure he'll probably be ready come fight night but I think its going to be a matter of if Floyd still has his quick reflexes. People call him boring, but he is the truest form of the sport. Very rarely even gets hit clean. Marquez is a little too far out of his weight division, but against Juan Diaz, you have to remember Juan throws punches in bunches and no matter what if you throw high volume against a guy thats going to be there and wants to fight, your going to land. Mayweather picks and chooses his punches so JMM can come forward all night long and put the pressure on Floyd. I think Floyd will win a decision and then the fight with Manny will happen.
     
    As for that fight, I think Manny will have to hurt Floyd early in the fight. It takes Floyd a little while to adjust to southpaws and if Manny can tag him early in the fight and not let Floyd get into a rhythm he can control the rest of the fight. Going to be a great fight either way and it WILL happen at the end of this year no matter what happens with JMM/Floyd

    Sportsfan hit it exactly on the nose but I think Floyd will try to show up manny by ending JMM early...
     
    Either Manny and Floyd will fight unless something happens to one of them...
     
    If there's 50 million dollars waiting for this fight why wouldn't it happen? Money always talks louder than words!!!!!!!!!!!
