If Floyd goes more aggressive and fast against Manny, then?

    I think people mistake "aggressive and fast" for flat footed. He can incorporate aggression into his style and still be very defensive.

    I think that is his game plan going into the fight. Probably will try to sting him with the jab to the body from distance too.

    Yes, when Manny looks over at his corner for help, Roach will be gone, and Buboy will be yelling, "Pumunta da choppaaaaa!!!!!!!!" :deal

    Does Floyd hit harder than Mosley or more often than Margarito? Going toe to toe with Pacquiao is literally the worst thing Floyd can do.

    Being "aggressive and fast" is not "toe to toe", if that's what you're implying. Floyd can use intelligent aggression, backing Pacquiao up doesn't mean he has to stand and trade.

    Pac has never been backed up the only time was against Margo who outweighed him by 20 ibs and even than he fought fire with fire:hi:

    I hope the moment gets to much for mayweather and he walks down Pac:yep

    You have to be crazy to go full on toe 2toe with pac he would eat you up if you do that

    Again Pac has never been backed up in his whole career the only time he backed up was when Margo broke his ribs with the body shot Pac backed up but than fired back in the end of the round that was the only time Pac backed up:hi:

    He doesn't have the fire power to do that. His best bet is to stick and move

    1. Walking someone down does not = toe to toe.
    2. Margarito was around 165. He didn't cut 30 lbs to make weight, unless you're admitting he was drained.

    He can walk Pac down in spots, and if he does, I don't think he will do it a lot. But aggressive and fast isn't the same as walking someone down. He can fight his usual way, being aggressive would be upping his punch output, sitting on his punches a little more, upping the tempo; at least in Floyd's case.

    Has anyone walked down Pac and not get beat up?

    even Marquez learnt early in the first fight round 1 you can not just rush pac

    Floyd will show that he is Pacman's master at every facet of the game.

    They get beat up for two reasons: 1) Pac is no cake walk to walk down and 2) they don't know how to walk Pac down. Marquez has pushed Pac back plenty of times, he just needed to make adjustments. That's why he outboxed Pacquiao in the first fight, would've been a clear victory had he been careful in the early going.
