Floyd cannot hurt Pacman. He doesn't punch hard enough to break an egg. Even if they do allow him to use Xzylocaine
On the other hand Manny hits hard fast & often.
All I hope for is that just for once Floyd gives his opponent a fair fight. No ridiculous stipulations etc .Kenny Bayless is not even allowed in the arena. No judges from Vegas or the Philipines. Make it a good clean fight and may the best man win. If its Floyd I'll be first to congratulate him If it Manny wins are you Floyd fanatics willing to do the same ????

Bradley has 12 kos doe in 33 fights, and he rocked pacquaio pretty good in the 2nd fight. So i wouldn't say floyd cant hurt pacquaio. It's definately a possibility.

Pacquiao is a reaction fighter. Meaning, he'll throw combinations quickly after you tag him and he'll throw his combinations as you're throwing yours. He doesn't care if he gets hit. He'll eat 2 of your punches to land 4 of his.

I don't think clinching Pacquiao will be as easy as some think. The dudes smaller, and he has an inside-out footwork. You can't tie someone up when he's 4 ft away from you every few seconds, coming in, going out. Is inside-out game is his offense and his defense, and Bradley spoke about how difficult it was to deal with. Plus, I've never seen anyone have success with a clinch on him. Algieri tried in the 9th round and paid for it. But besides him, still have never seen someone have success and many have tried.

Pacquiao doesn't like to fight on the inside, but he still can hurt those who try. Plus, not sure why people think he's going to fight in a way that isn't his best advantage. Pacquiao is an elite fighter. He's going to fight his style no matter what Floyd tries to do.

I can't think of any reason why not. Pacquiao has the best footwork in the game. One small thing: a huge part of this game is who can get their lead foot on the outside of the opponent. I'm thinking...Pac has the huge advantage in this. Why? He knows 1,000% how to get his dominant foot on the outside because he's fought orthodox fighters his whole life. Mayweather has only fought like 3 C+/B- southpaws in his career, and I wonder if he'll be confused with his for a while when he's facing the best southpaw of this generation.

Pacquiao will only becomes reckless when he's hurt you. That's when he gets overly excited. Frustrated? He knows missing shots is a part of his game. I don't think frustration will be a problem unless he just can't hit Floyd AT ALL by the 6th round. That won't be the case though.

Inability to cut off the ring? I do admit he's struggled with this in the past, but he has done well, especially well, in recent fights like Algieri. Watch it. Most definitely the first 4 rounds. It was a huge improvement, and I was shocked because Algieri runs 5x more than Floyd.

And lack of jab? Pacquiao... ugh. atsch Like, no. Jabs won't even come into play here except maybe Pacquiao's power jab. But, it won't be a deciding factor. Don't worry. It won't be a JAB that will keep Floyd honest.

If it's fought at Floyd's pace he'll win. That's going to be hard though. Pacquiao always establishes the pace(very fast,intense), just like Floyd. Ring generalship will be a huge battle in this fight. No one can see who's pace it'll be, but that is definitely a very crucial aspect of this fight.

You can say the same thing about Pacquiao. No one has ever beat him by boxing him- he's too active, too overwhelming. Those who beat him did so by either knocking him out (engaging) or throwing WITH him, so taking severe punishment but hoping you'll land something that'll hurt him (Morales, Marquez). All in all, those who beat him went through Hell to do so. Is Floyd willing to take punishment? What happens if Floyd realizes Pacquiao's punches hurt him, but his are not hurting Pacquiao?

Another way to look at it... who will cause more collateral damage in the long run? Pacquiao's straight left? Or Mayweather's straight right. Because I promise you BOTH will land that shot.

The fight is 50/50 to me.

Great take... It will be interesting to see if manny can establish outside lead foot positioning, as well as who sets the pace.

You know exactly why there hasn't been any threads on this topic. This forum is over-run with Pac****s and Mayweather-Haters. And what happened last night in Miami does not fall in-line with their agenda. Last night was a prime example of what Mayweather has been saying all along. Pac and Arum don't and never did want this fight. It was Mayweather who called Pacquaio to make him the offer of 40 Million...remember. Than last night he flies cross-country to see/confront Pacquiao since he knew he would be in Miami (judge in Miss Universe Pageant)...Floyd walks across the court to confront Manny and said to him several times "WHY ARE YOU LYING ABOUT SIGNING A CONTRACT?" Then Mayweather gives Pacquao his number, then if that wasn't enough....Floyd goes to Pacquiaos Hotel. Mayweather has made ALL THE ATTEMPTS TO MAKE THIS FIGHT. Pac and Arum....NOTHING BUT ******* LIES.

That's why there has been NO THREAD on this topic. An entire group of people who hate Floyd don't have the Testicles to create a thread saying that Floyd was right the entire time. Testicles and Humility are not the strengths of a Pac****!!!!

Idk man, pac is percieved as the bigger puncher of the 2 but we all know floyd has the best defence in the game right now and has underated power HIMSELF... and you can't hit what you can't see. I mean Pacquaio supposedly landed over 200 shots on bradley in the first fight, but bradley walked away like he was never in a fight, much less a fight with the great Pacquaio.

Pacs been in so many wars his face marks up pretty easily, and those lead right pot shots are going to be a big problem for pac going down the stretch of the fight.

Pacs, speed, angles and punches in bunches give him a good shot doe, but i doubt it will be enough to dethrone Floyd.

Floyd had a helpless unprotected vulnerable Victor Ortiz at his mercy when he cowardly threw his best & hardest combination at his unprotected head. He STILL couldn't knock him out :rofl
Worst of all the coward is claiming that was a KO win for himatsch

The pacquaio ringside special he did with the uk commentators was interesting. It was floyd who was ducking all these years, pac said it himself. Floyd has no other choice but to take this fight now, pac and his team have cornered him, nowhere to go.

3 days to go until the fight is announced.
