    As I said before, I respect PBF's skills, but not his mouth.

    I'll give that overrated douchenozzle this, he knows how to make people really, really, want to see him lose. That's great for business.

    So that means the fight will eventually happen.....after Floyd decides that Manny's age is older enough

    You do realize that Floyd is 2 years older than Manny, right?

    Floyd turns 34 in a few months -- an age when one's physical skills tend to be in the decline. The sooner they fight, the greater the chance Floyd has of winning.

    So lemme get this straight. Floyd is the one who chickened out of the fight yet HE'S the one talking trash now? How pathetic can one be?

    And 30 is old in any sports, his last fight did show some slowed reaction as well not by much. I'm not saying that's a decline but it's noticeable

    The sooner they fight the greater the chance Floyd has of winning is like me saying Manny is 2 years younger so he has a greater chance of winning.

    30 isn't old in any sport, unless you're a runningback in the NFL or a tennis player. Typically, one's prime in terms of athletic performance is about 25 - 33 years of age, especially in a sport like boxing.

    What you fail to take into account is the juncture of when the two would fight. Let's assume that Mayweather fought Pacquiao when Floyd was 32 years old and Pacquiao was 30. Then both men would still be in their physical primes and no distinct advantage is given to either fighter. However if Floyd fought Pacquiao when Floyd was 35 years and Pacquiao was 33 years old, then Pacquiao has a clear advantage in terms of age since 35 is around the same time that other greats' physical skills have deteriorated to the point of no return (see Roy Jones, Ezzard Charles, Joe Louis, etc).

    And what you failed to take into account about my original post with Mayweather waiting to fight Manny until he's older than kfc was tongue and cheek. I should've written that. Next time

    No problem with the quoted post, it's only a 2 year age gap
