I honestly don't know, but I'm seriously hoping Manny takes it. He's simply my favorite current boxer and I've never liked Floyd's attitude, as a boxer or as a person.

Let's go Pac-Man!

five year ago, I'd say Pacquiao. But Mayweather's defensive style is much less affected by the erosion of age. Neither of them is really capable of a knockout at this point - I'll say Mayweather in a decision.

Predictable and as boring as any Mayweather fight over the last few years.

Let's face it, we knew how this match was gonna turn out. Manny was gonna attack Floyd from the off and Floyd was just gonna clinch, dodge, and do just enough to win the majority of rounds. I don't want to take anything away from Mayweather; he's an extremely tactical and very well calculated boxer who knows what he's doing, but it's boring to watch.

This fight should happened around 2009-2011 when both boxers were arguably in their prime (well defiantly Pacquiao). This fight was very strategically picked at the right moment for Mayweather and the result was inevitable. It was still cool to see it finally happen though, just exactly the spectacle we had been wishing to see for years.
