    A few years back i would go with PAC but now his footwork seems to have gone and it has taken away his dynamic, Floyd toys with him today.

    Floyd at this point but honestly he's getting so old himself, he could be done in a year. I hope that fuking fight never happens, that would be the saddest day in boxing.

    Pac beat Bradley easily, so what in the Hell does that have to do with Pac Void?

    Bump. It seems that whenever Bradley had few of his moments, he actually backed Manny with the jab. In the earlier rounds, he threw a bunch of lazy range-finder jabs, and Manny countered him with ease. I was really impressed when he utilized the jab to set up the straight right hand in some of the late round flurries moments. If he had fought Manny at a more composed tempo and set up his punches better, he could've actually made it more competitive. Bradley gets out of control too easily.
     
  10. Manny will get up for this fight like no other. I Believe he is even conserving energy in his last few fights preparing for this matchup.
    Manny will be the first to KO Floyd.

    One thing to consider is that Tim was moving very well on his feet despite his injuries. He was able to move in and out, side to side and pivot away from Pac. Right now, Mayweather is almost exclusively a flat footed fighter. His legs have really slowed. That has to play a big role in this fight.

    Floyd can still move laterally, use his reverse gear, and pivot as displayed in the Cotto(e) fight. He also has other tools to limit an offense such as hiding behind his shoulder and bending to initiate clinch.

    I think once Floyd figure out the patterns of how Manny throw his straight left hand, then he would make adjustments to neutralize it.
