Taking nothing away from MMA fighters, their skill sets are much more diverse with the ground game and takedown game than are traditional boxers' skill sets. And many of them that I have followed bring excitement every fight. But many others... I just get bored watching fighters who are on the mat for 4:45 of a 5 minute round. Not bashing it, just saying it doesn't interest me. Now when they are on their feet? That I like.
The payday for Mayweather - Pacquio will just be too great at some point for Floyd to resist. Likely the biggest purse in boxing history, so I do think it will happen if bothe fighters remain healthy and keep winning.

So the real question is who do you think would win between Floyd and Manny?? Personally I think Floyd would but it would be a decision I dont think Manny as fast as he is could knock Floyd out because of how Floyd fights he is probably one of the best counter fighter ever..plus do you think there is any real merit to the whole "Manny needs too take a drug test" argument??
