    Pacquiao is a very smart fighter, you need to pay closer attention. He fakes often, tries to deceive opponents and throws different combinations depending on scenario. He was masterful against Bradley if you ****yze his tactics carefully. He was also smart vs Algieri.

    JMM countered Pacquiao by risking getting hit, here's where Floyd and JMM differ big time. First of all, JMM NEVER figured out PACQUIAO'S speed because he got hit more often than he hit Pacquiao. Manny floored JMM like 6 times in 4 fights and made him bleed; JMM's face was always in worst shape than Manny. So, you are totally wrong here on 2 fronts - 1. JMM never handled Pac's speed, he always got hit a lot 2. Floyd will not fight like JMM which is basically 'hit me manny, knock me out but i will get you with a good punch, let's trade!' THIS WILL NOT BE FLOYD'S STARTEGY... trust me. Not only will Floyd refuse to get hit, he doesn't have the KO power to hurt Manny so fighting like Marquez would be a sure way for Floyd to LOSE.

    Pac is very accurate and has incredible timing, look at his fights closely.. - cotto, DLH, Hatton, mARGERITO, Rios... it's timing and accuracy as it's best. So you think Floyd is a bad match up for Pac but some think Pac is floyd's worst possible opponent..why? 1. Floyd always enjoys a speed advantage vs opponents, not against Manny 2. Floyd has no power so if you don't have power, Manny will come at you 3. Manny's punch output, awkward angles, speed and accuracy will be hell for Floyd. Maidana caused Floyd some trouble, imagine a faster more accurate Maidana with better movement and accuracy? Manny... It's also said that Floyd doesn't like southpaws, enter Manny. So good arguments can be made MP is a nightmare matchup for Floyd.

    A lot is said about Khan but Khan got killed by Danny Garcia. He is talented and not easy but i see him getting hurt by manny and getting outboxed by Floyd. Floyd's defense will trouble Khan, interesting fight though as Floyd may not have the power to expose Khan's glass chin.

    let's see khan prove this first. He got destroyed by Danny Garcia, barely beat Maidana and now he'll dominate Floyd? Let's see if Khan can handle other fighters before we proclaim him pound for pound without proving squat. He beat Collazo and devon? and he's now p for p king? he better prove a lot more before we start talking about him dominating Floyd

    he was dominating JMM before that punch KO'd him so what are you talking about? why would he need to make adjustments at that point? JMM was bloodied and getting punched silly, Pac made a mistake by being overconfident.

    I can see floyd struggling here by a guy that has the same speed, throws more punches, is accurate, brings high intensity, is as experienced and is the bigger puncher. Floyd will not be able to outseend him, out punch him and worst of all, he will lack the power to hurt him. What can Floyd do? i TOTALLY do not see this as an easy fight for Floyd ...Floyd has never experienced anything like Pacman. As Robert Garcia has said numerous times 'Pacquiao is much more difficult to prepare for than Floyd'

    What an idiot you are. You see Khan beating Floyd???

    You said, Pac is predictable, but Khan beats Floyd???

    Are you blind???

    Do you realize that Khan is the Arabic guy???

    I honestly thought the fight was going to happen, but then Floyd released the worm video.

    You know, where he worm's out.

    Surely, there is too much pressure this time. Can Floyd worm out???

    It's impossible at this point, right???

    I mean, the dude's behavior is HIGHLY erratic.

    Let's look at his history:

    50 Cent mentions Pacquaio, 50 Cent is no longer affiliated with the Money Team.

    Ellerbe, Floyd' rumored ***ual partner, and long time affiliate mentions Pacquaio, and he is no longer part of the Money Team.

    I think there is a 100% probability Mayweather is trying to get out of this fight, but will he be successful this time?

    As long as fans and boxing ****yst blindly make him the favorite then he feels he doesnt need to prove himself by fighting Pac. That latest vid is just ammunition to say "see! i went and saw him and told him we need to fight, its not me whose ducking" But we all know not to put words in floyds mouth

    This dude is the greatest evasive fighter outside of the ring there's ever been. There's a lot of ducking competition out there and he needs to step his game up to keep that p4p spot with Quillin and Stevenson gunning for it. He's like 7-0 in major avoided fights. I have confidence in him that his record will be unblemished when he retires, and this avoidance of Manny Pacquiao will be his signature victory. At this point, he's definitely the GOAT. Leo Santa Cruz will need to have reconstructive surgery, move to another country, and change his name if he's going to have any hope of topping Floyd.
