The "All Things Mayweather/Pacquiao" Express!!!!!!

Alvarez could have been as dry or as wet as you desire him to be, his style still wouldn't be effective against Mayweather. Alvarez tends to wait and if you give Mayweather a chance to build up a rhythm then you're as good as outclassed in one-sided fashion.

Pacquiao in 2009-2011 would be a serious threat due to his consistent aggression, speed and power in both hands. However, Pacquiao has looked colder and more calculating lately due to the KO loss. Thurman, while good, still needs more big fights before aiming for Mayweather. Bradley would lose easily and won't pose any problems whatsoever. Bradley is a good boxer with no power, that's the recipe for absolute disaster against Mayweather's style. Bradley would lose worse than Marquez did against Mayweather.

 

thats why i rank the cotto win so well, floyd beat a seasoned HOF fighter cotto on the inside at his own game. cottos inside game is amazing

 

Against Mayweather his ultimate downfall will be his stamina. He needs to be in Mayweather's face all night using his speed to its full potential otherwise expect to see him outboxed, confused and frustrated in the middle of the ring. Take Khan's speed away and he's left with absolutely nothing. One special attribute is NOT enough to beat or trouble Mayweather.

 

Victor Ortiz has no handspeed and is flat footed?

Have you seen him fight> The guy has plenty of limitations, hand speed and footspeed arent 2 of them.

The guy is nothing if not explosive.

 

Pryor had his chance.

He turned down fights with Leonard and Duran.

 

It's pretty sad.

 

Also Shane Mosely was never known for his speed??????

 

He has wins in fights with The Big Show at Wrestlemania 24 and Ms Jackson who both had electrifying pace and was fleet footed. :deal

 

:rofl

 

Nope a past in prime Shane Mosley at the age of 39 wasn't known for anything substantial.

and Victor Ortiz was flat footed brawler with no foot speed, he was explosive but flat footed.

 

Mayweather should fight pac or bradley.

 

Well the OP implied that Mosely was simply not known for his speed, which he obviously was.

And he also implied that Ortiz had no handspeed, so thats at least 3 things he was wrong on.

Also completely overlooking guys like Gennaro Hernandez as "bums" shows how troll-ish the guy is

 

Well FIghttime, that wasn't a completely bias post you threw out.

So EVERYONE thought he lost the first JLC fight? EVERYONE? You know it was a close fight right? To assume EVERYONE has their perspective aligned with yours is just pretentious on your part.

And he BARELY squeaked by a SD agsint DLH? Maybe on the official scorecards, but any fan with rudimentary knowledge on how to score a fight would know he clearly won that match around 8-4.

And Mosley all of a sudden was a shell of his former self when he fought FLoyd huh? COuld've fooled me, he came off of one of his most dominant performances in his career in his destruction of Margarito and Mosley was looking much stronger at WW. I remember after he won, people said there was NO way FLoyd would fight SHane and started the silly duckweather talks. He dominated him and all of a sudden Mosley became a supremely shot fighter. Beautiful double standard.

Also, Mosley has always been known for having fast hands and quick combinations, so why you exclude him from "fast handed" fighters is beyond me. Well you have an agenda so you have to pick and choose what you'd like to exploit.

And Judah didn't win 4 straight rounds against FLoyd, even in the first half of that fight. I'm starting to question if you know how to score boxing per round. Granted FLoyd lost a few of those rounds in the first 6, but not 4 in a row. YOu sound like the second coming of CJ Ross.

You have a negative disposition towards FLoyd and that's fine, but don't throw out your stupid, silly, inane posts and try to spin them off as being absolute facts. YOu obviously have an agenda that you're just trying to spew.

 

It's not just speed. It's overall hand and foot speed. Most guys that fight Mayweather just stand right in front of him and try to land shots whether it be one at a time, or in combination. This is what Mayweather is good at defending against and he always picks them off. The obvious predictable attack and many of his opponents are notorious for this. I have rarely if ever seen a Mayweather opponent create angles with footwork in combination with upper body movement and quick combinations. I don't think his past few opponents are even capable of such
