    Does Floyd have the punch to win 'Mannys respect' ,
    if not knock him out? i think manny has an excellent chin & don't see this happening, although i could invisig Freddie stopping the fight.....

    Feel free to share your thoughts?..

    No. Manny takes a good punch. It would take a lot of punches and if Floyd threw that many punches he would get tagged.

    When fighters fight Mayweather, their punch output generally drops & is they are punching thin air for the most part. He's undoubtedly the most accurate fighter in the sport & if the fight is one sided i do see manny being pulled out of their..

    Yeah but if Floyd is going for the KO it will give Pac more chances of landing big punches than if Floyd fought defensively. Pac prefers fighters to come at him.

    Floyd hits a lot harder than what people think. There is a reason why guys like Oscar, and Mosley didn't walk him down. He can stop Manny. Anybody can get knocked out and Floyd is accurate and fast.

    With manny's 'cramping' issues he's not likely to chase anyone anytime soon..

    No. Manny has a better chance of doing that to Floyd. Not that Manny could do that easily to an elusive, running May though...

    The only way for Floyd to win is to counter, potshot, and clinch Manny to a UD/MD.

    He could drop Pacquiao and maybe TKO him, but a UD is the most safe bet:

    I don't get how people think May has no pop in his punches. Of course he could KO Manny...May can pop...his power is underrated...
