Fight Credential
Power
It would seem Pacquiao could win this one on reputation alone as he plays the role of puncher, stylistically, to Mayweather's boxer in the fight narrative. But two factors might cloud that thought: Pacquiao hasn't recorded a KO in more than five years and Mayweather has shown an underrated level of power in recent years, enough to keep dangerous opponents honest. Yet Pacquiao remains more dangerous due to his combination of speed and awkward punching angles, as evidenced by the six knockdowns he scored against Chris Algieri in November.
Advantage: Pacquiao
