there are rumors that mayweather wants to fight manny at 135 pounds to stop the doubt of boxing fans around the world being him as the boxing's best pound 4 pound fighter. in case this thing will happen, who do you think will win PACMAN or PBF?

Manny's great, but he's all power, Mayweather is way too gifted for Manny to handle. Floyd would probably stop him on cuts. Not sure where you read this rumor, but Mayweather's been talking about fighting De Lay Hoya at 147, and he just signed to fight Carlos Baldomir for the WBC Welterweight belt on Nov. 4th. I don't forsee him dropping 12 pounds to fight PacMan.
If by easy you mean all the following whom Mayweather beat already - Castillo (2X), Diego Coralles, DeMarcus Corley, Genaro Hernandez, Jesus Chavez (2X), Angel Manfredy. The Castillo-Coralles I (fight of the year) didn't leave me thinking either was "easy".

Manny Pacquiao can't move up anymore. 130 lbs is the best ideal weight for him. If he moves up more, he'll look bloated and will be a lot slower. Mayweather used to be superfeatherweight but has moved up since. I don't think it'll ever happen but it would be the fans' dream come true match. Tough call but I'd pick Mayweather just because he's a bit bigger than Manny Pacquiao. Also the more complete boxer.

Manny pacquiao is a great fighter when there's someone there to hit in PBF's case I have to say that Pacman will be swinging at air all night PBF is known for not getting hit and for his great defense Pacman wont be able to land that punch that he did on morales and barrera two fighters that like to take one to give one and what the heck am I talkin about this fight will never happen PERIOD because after manny fights barrera he's retiring.

certainly i particularly do not recognize. both are impressive combatants. Manny Pacquiao has great speed and agility and has more suitable more beneficial effectual accuracy which became shown in his strive against against Ricky Hatton. Floyd Mayweather even if has great protection and timing on punches and wide-spread the more beneficial effectual boxer, even in spite of the reality that his fights are uninteresting to exhibit screen. If Pacquiao were to flow to brawling tactics, he might want to lose, coz Mayweather will seem for the slightest starting to get the KO. yet another element is weight. Mayweather is very tender being a Welterweight, yet when Pacquiao adjusts to being a Welterweight then he can particularly carry out a touch damage coz he were given speed. In a strive against like this, something might want to take position. yet wide-spread i flow for Pacqiuao in chop up decision. i'm Pacman fan.

Vince I've heard that too, but I got a hard time believing that Pacquaio could move up to 135. I may be wrong, but we're talking about a guy who started out as a flyweight! For that reason if this fight were to happen Mayweather all the way! Unless the Pacman could get Macky Shilstone to bulk him up the correct way as Shilstone did with Hopkins for the Tarver fight.

I think PBF will because he is a more complete boxer. i mean Floyd is considered to be the BEst P4P but PacMan wasn't considered to be the best in his division at one point. I just don't think that Manny can hold up to the Fire Powere that Floyd has plus all Manny really has is a straight left. PBF will/should win.

Manny Pacquiao will knocked him down in the first round of their fight. PACMAN is the man! he is the best pound for pound fighter! lucky for PBF if he reached the second round!

Pacqiuiao would destroy Mayweather at 135 believe me those rumours wouldnt be true no way would Mayweather risk fighting the Pacman he only takes easy fights.

mayweather is certainly one of the greatest fighter in boxing, but his arrogance will bring him down if he continues to do so ... pacquiao is the opposite of mayweather ... he is offense and mayweather is defense ... floyd has a great advantage though in terms of skills ... but manny, being the underdog and the amount of money on the line, will certainly be very motivated ... this motivation will be the key to his win ... against all odds, i'll go with "PACMAN" ...

if mayweather goes down to 135 he will be dead meat for the Pacman. I don't think floyd can go 135 anymore without choppin off a limb.
