Its all hypothetical but for me the best tactician i've seen in my lifetime is mayweather, he doesn't go into the fight one dimensional....ever. He doesn't have a plan A, Plan B etc but half the fucking alphabet. For me he would match pacs work rate and nullify the awkward angles he creates with his movement, also picking the right shots at the right time. For me pac is made for money in that he takes risks with the pressure he forces on the opponent, a counter master like mayweather would relish it, hence the bullshit excuses by pac....... come on who takes a fight for $6m when they can fight money and get $20m? A guy who has the irking feeling that not only can't he take his fix to be conditioned on a par, but one who knows he'd get dusted.
I was talking about this the other night with a mate of mine we both said mayweather and both also agreed with a yeah but.
I agree about mayweather being a brilliant tactitian saying that there's no doubt he wouldn't have to go further than plan A he knows excactly what fight he'd be getting.Not sure about matching the workrate though.
I really do think like you that mayweather is as good as anything I've ever seen and agree that pac does take chances to be picked off,but the one thing that I can't get away from is the combined speed and workrate,You have to say drugs issues aside there's not been a fighter who can,or has matched him and not just through the first half only then to slow down,because he doesn't and hardly drops the pace for the whole 3 mins 12 rounds.
I don't think for 1 min that pac doesn't think he couldn't win and mayweather as already admitted and said when the fight was on "It will be the toughest fight in my career I'll look so good in there though when winning"
There's no getting away from both being the best by far at what they do.
I think both in different ways and styles are quite awesome to watch in a ring.
Mayweather the slickest smoothest cockey git,don't give a shit what you throw at me I'll look better and with style than you and that's out of the ring inside he's better than that..
Pac all smiling friendly and probabaly would rather do 12 rounds punch for punch at full pace than sit at home by the pool don't think I've seen anyone who actually enjoys himself in the ring more.
I really hope they would sort it out think they match up for each other mayweather loves someone comeing at him and pac likes counter puncher.
My boxing head says same as you mayweather should pick him off,but think he could be in trouble if he does the usual slowish start to the first few rounds.He's good enough to get away with it most times doing as he pleases normally because of picking up his workrate and picking his punches superbly.But if it's a close fight which I think it may well be then he will have to match him from first bell.
IMO the fight would probabaly go the distance and mayweather will have to be busier than normal to keep pace with pac but I can't see him doing more than him so those early rounds may be crucial.
I'm really not sure how it would turn out if they make 20-30mill each and it's close,then it's a nailed on draw and rematch.I've already decided if it happens even though I never bet on boxing I'm going to have 20 quid on the draw simply because there's way too much money to be made for everyone invovled for there to be no rematch and a draw would be the perfect result.
Anyway IMO...Mayweather to easily beat Mosley in about 7.To quick smooth and pick off mosely who at 38 won't be able to do anything quick or cute enough to trouble mayweather.It could be one of those nights were maweather makes mosley who down the years as been a brilliant and world class look real bad.
But then again one punch.
