    Like I said in previous threads. Floyd is a much better fighter then Marquez, we seen this when Marquez was shut out in there fight. I don't know how this third fight will play out, but If Marquez give Manny another war, how could anybody take a fight against Mayweather vs Pac seriously.

    How JMM fought against Floyd at welterweight tells us nothing about their comparative ability to fight a third party.

    Floyd is a great boxer than JMM but doesn't mean his style will give more problems for PAC. my point is PBF is the best counter puncher but more on pot shooting rather than throwing them in combinations. as I observe PAC is having more trouble if you throw a counter by bunches PAC is not elusive target as other boxers when you hit him with one good counter he seems like rattle back pedaling like the way morales did to him. new version of PAC improves a lot look how he duck punches well after taking some good counter punch. roach really done well to reinvent PAC the main reason he will give floyd problem is that he posses foot speed same as floyd and the ability to throw punches from weird angle. let's see this november if he really improve against his arch rival JMM.

    I think they have the same troubling style. Only one fighter is way harder to hit than the other.

    Watch mayweather/judah and you see the reason why Pac cannot beat mayweather. That is an underrated fight to watch bc well.... It's judah. However, that fight was like super high speed chess. When there was action it was ridiculously fast. Judah's counters and timed lefts were some of the fastest power punches you are going to see. Floyd was able to not get hit with a follow up punch when judah tried to get in a combo. Judah did not land ANYTHING just letting his hands go like pac does. He only landed one punch at a time and it was way faster than any pac single shot. So how does pac, being he is a mediocre counter puncher and more of a barrage attack guy get to mayweather? Who is the fastest opponent pac been in the ring with at the higher weights? How often does he land his lead punch?

    Speak for yourself. Marquez is probably the closes fighter to a mayweather that Manny has faced as of yet. I say that because of Marquez countering and adjustment ability. Floyd is a level higher which gives me all the reason to believe Manny will have major problems against him.

    Basing on how each fighter performed recently, Floyd will be the harder fight due to size advantage. JMM's advantage is he likes to mix it up and that's the only way you can hurt Manny. Running around will be useless cause Pac will be throwing so much more punches.
    JMM's style is more potent when dealing against Pac.

    I always thought that with the way Pac is off balances after he throws a combonation,Floyd would abuse him.

    You're right because if that was the case, Castillo, a harder puncher than Floyd should've walked through Corrales with relative ease being he gave Floyd major trouble and Corrales was embarresed by Floyd. It's about styles.

    Pac's "angles" are overrated because the guys he fights stand right in front of him.

    That's actually why I believe Pacquiao would beat Floyd. While Judah has better physical attributes, Pacquiao has the better chin, heart, and stamina and Judah would've done better and maybe pulled out the upset had he possessed these things. And according to what Mosley said about him, Pacquiao doesn't need to constantly catch Floyd in combos to hurt him because after all, I believe Mosley has a better chin than Floyd does.

    What will happen if seeming off balance is part of his game plan ? We know Manny incoporates martial arts stuff punches his boxing and comparative to boxers, martial artists can seem off balance when really they aren't because they use muscles and stances that boxers do not.

    Funny that you say Judah let his hands go like Pacquiao considering that's probably been the main issue with Zab Judah in his entire career, he doesn't let his hands go and it makes you scratch your head sometimes.

    His dad has been screaming at him to let his hands go for years. The only time Judah had success in that Mayweather fight was well....when he let his hands go like Pacquiao.
