    If Manny is just a one dimensional fighter this fight would of been done 2 years ago instead of bringing up the excuse of PED's and vacation time. I honestly think that Mayweahter saw weakness on Pac's last fight with Marquez and that is why he is pushing for the fight too hard. Compared to when Pac looked unbeatable when he fought ODLH, Hatton, Cotto, and Margarito. It mainly had to do with Floyd's insecurity and lack of trust to beat Pac, which he seemed to find now. Now the problem is that Arum doesn't want to the fight :twisted:

    A replay of three or four highlightpunches JMM landed and a lot of stereotypical hating. Not witty, unimaginative and shows no real insight in the sport. Screams out dumb armchair worrior.

    Floyd would trash Pac, no doubt.

    And that makes Pac the second best in the world :hi:

    Manny makes a ton of mistakes that people are very well familiar with by now.

    But as I've said, I think Floyd has a few habits that can become mistakes that could prove dangerous liabilities against Pacquiao.

    Failing to get that lead foot on the outside and neglecting proper in-range lateral movement will cost him, as he will be constantly susceptible to left straights behind a jab and as lead punches, to the body and head, as he backs up in a straight back or leans backwards in his angled stance:

    Cutting the ring off as he usually does against Southpaws to eliminate that angle is his probable line of action in the early-mid rounds, though if he attempts to apply pressure without still incorporating that movement of the lead foot to the outside (and Manny will be the most mobile opponent he's faced), he will throw out of position and expose himself to a hard right-hook counter, as well as land with his feet mis-aligned. His right hand can do nothing from that vulnerable angle either:

    Just my opinion and some things to think about.


    (Sorry for the crappy quality. This is the best I can do until I put my video together.)

    Pac is too small for Floyd.

    It's amazing that an undersized southpaw did so much in his career.

    A lot of times, being undersized as a southpaw is a disadvantage, especially if your opponent has experience with southpaw fighters.
