    If Floyd goes more aggressive and hyper, then it will be beneficial for Manny or it will result in KO him? What will help Floyd, to be aggressive or to be calm and confident but fast?

    Assuming you've not see the other 48 that went before. FMJ is probably the most calculated boxer I've ever seen.

    Playing right into Manny's hands is not something I see happening.

    Although Floyd has fought more agressive against some southpaws, I do not think that will happen against Pac. He would only play into Pac's hands.

    Floyd will circle Pac , pick his shots with the lead right and try to smother Pac.

    It will definitely be beneficial to Pacquiao. Pacquiao is a better aggressive fighter than Mayweather and has more successful experiences doing so. Mayweather will also be overwhelmed by Pacquiao's speed if he exchanges.

    This his ring IQ and ability to adjust is astounding. He is levels above JMM and he will be watching the Manny-JMM fights to see what works. Manny had trouble against JMM because he is a smart counter puncher with a high ring IQ. What JMM doesn't have though is the physical abilities of Floyd. Manny is fast but so is Floyd. Floyd is a lot faster than JMM who had success landing on Manny also Floyds timing is superb.

    Then he's in the line of fire, literally.

    You just don't walk Manny down, he'll clip you.

    Manny can try whatever he wants, but it's not going to help him. Even though Floyd is the smaller fighter, Floyd is going to walk down and destroy Manny. Inside of two rounds Manny's going to be standing in the middle of the ring, looking over at his corner helpless and confused with no idea what to do as Money May lands on him at will with flush power shots. Manny will be knocked out inside of two rounds, unless Floyd decides to please the fans by pretending to be hit. Then it would take three rounds. Remember you heard it here. Fact!

    The pressure is on! Floyd has taken tons of criticism for not taking risks in his fights by using his God given talents and athletic qualities.

    Not many can keep up with Floyd in the speed category and where he can pot shot to score points and win a decision, his opponents on the other hand have not had the speed or ability to catch Floyd or impose their style on him. That's where the whole "boring style" criticism came from.

    With the fight a month a way that he's been avoiding for 6 years and the world watching, Floyd is under a lot of pressure to prove he's a better fighter than Manny.....not better at evading and scoring points to secure a boring decision. They want skills to be on display and not just speed and clinching.

    Floyd is working on power to make a statement.....yes, that would mean he's taking more risk which isn't something we are used to but when he does Floyd gains something he complains he doesn't get much of, "respect"......if it's about legacy it won't be good enough just to win a boring decision.

    The fight has to be a classic or some kind of performance that defines his career. Right now Floyd is the self proclaimed TBE.....but the majority view Floyd as a great defensive fighter who has an undefeated record.....a far stretch from the best ever.

    With the fight against Manny he might be able to change some perceptions about how he's remembered and the legacy he will actually leave the sport of boxing with......not what he hopes will be his legacy. He just has to perform!
