    Will be a issue

    Go watch him when a fighter gets him in the ropes he always waits for them to finish before punching he never throws back, what happens when the fighter throwing the punchers is punching from different angles?

    This is just one of many things which i have known for a long and there is anther BIG thing which i will keep to myself :yep

    People will be shocked in this fight

    I think for once in a long time he will be forced to trade punchers while on the ropes

    If he doesn't throw more when he is at the ropes against Pac he will get caught a lot he got away with it against other guys but Pac is on a different level

    ...got away with being reluctant?

    That's your read on his body language or tactical intentions when positioning himself on the ropes and inviting opponents in?

    He's not reluctant, it's just his style as a counter puncher to wait on his opponent.

    He goes to the ropes so he can make the opponent get tired and miss and after they finish he picks his shots......... if he tries that with Pac he WILL get caught a lot that pathetic tactic wont work.

    Oh, did Pacquiao suddenly become some kind of laser-guided accuracy machine? (when not fighting Brandon Rios or Antonio Margarito)

    News to me. I could've sworn there were entire video compilations out there of some of his embarrassing swings & misses in fights w/ Bradley & Marquez. :think

    Funny you mention bradley did you see the 10 punch combo he landed on bradley when he was at the ropes?

    Sure Pac missed the one prior to that but he adjusted well by going to bradleys left and the angle then landing the combo.

    Fact is Pac is light years ahead of anyone Mayweather has fought

    I did watch the Pacquiao and Bradley rematch last night and boy at times Pacquiao was throwing weak arm punches and hitting air.
