    i'd never bet against mayweather even if he was fighting sergio martinez but pacquiao is a different matter

    50/50 fight all the way

      That pick is more represents my point of view. Almost to a T. Chavez's corner stopped it in 9-10 rds. Three more rounds of that would have been brutal. One thing I noticed about Margs is that if he gets hit with one he's often hit with two. We really underestimate Floyd's power at welter. Its plenty enough to keep Tony at bey. Then too, Margs starts slow. He cant wait and try to get it in late. Chavez had a decent showing because he threw from the first bell to the last bell. Floyd will be bustin him up for those first 5-6 round while Tony is getting his **** together.

        chavez was a lil guy who was still pushing flyod on the ropes and ruffing him up and even with floyd landing all of those clean punches chavez was never in any danger of gktfo and this was at the lower weights where floyd was supposedly a beast...now, imagine a bigger guy , with iron chin who pressures the **** out of you without slowing down doing the same thing....unlike shane and pac, i just dont see floyd hurtin margo to slow him down and with the kind of output floyd has when pressured hard, i dont see him beating margo.....

          Margarito would be eating left jabs while following Mayweather like a zombie/mummy around the ring.

            margs would have put the hurt on floyd back when floyd was fighting tata. now, not so much.

              The Pre-Margarito Cotto for me would give Mayweather a fight, But the Post-Margarito Cotto is done mentally, Mayweather would be like taking a advantage of a **** victim if he fights Cotto now.

                That Margarito was certainly more dangerous and better than what we have seen in the last 2 or 3 years.

                  There were times inthat fight where he pushed Floyd around but a lot of it was that he invited him inside. Floyd's fought some big guys and none of them push him around recently that I remember. If he couldnt bully Pac who went into a shell and welcomed it then I dont see how he could do it to a bigger guy with Mayweather's D. I need some of those E-bucks if by some random chance that happens.

                    LOL at floyd inviting him....it was the only way jesus chavez could make it a fight.....margo could'nt bully pac becuase he was getting hit by so many combinations and he was feeling pac's puches which caused his cut that limited his visison....floyd does'nt have that combos nor the punches to do that much damage......man, theres areason why floyd did'nt fight margo and i agree with larry merchant's reason firmly which was, floyd camp saw him as a bigger version of jlc....id bet all my e- points on marg and bet real money too(not on the internet) if somehow this fight still happens...

                      How could you honestly bet the house AGAINST floyd. I could see myself betting against floyd, especially for an underdog of someone like Pac.

                      The only fighter in the game that I would bet the house for, is Floyd. To bet the house against would just be insane.
