biggest problem with this is the crowd, hardly any tickets are going to the public. I think there will be a very boring and old crowd
of course, he does the same exact thing all the time. I think joke needs to implement a couple new combos for pac
I am majoring in Journalism and Electronic media, but writing is not my main focus in the major. Sports broadcast is, lol.
Possible, and I have pondered this thought as well. What convinced me otherwise is how it's still the biggest fight in boxing, and just because you are a celebrity or old, doesn't mean you're not a fan or can't scream. Everyone will be screaming regardless of the age or status.
First couple of rounds will very important, one of them will look to assert their dominance and set the pace. It will be an unpredictable first couple of rounds. I can see a scenario where floyd starts aggressive, knowing Pac has superior footwork/speed over the long run. Floyd's legs have really looked past their best days in recent fights. Floyd also knows that Pac can outwork him easily so i can see an aggressive Floyd in first coulee of rounds. I know this isn't his usual style but Pacquiao is a different fighter and Floyd may employ a different strategy vs Pac. Pacquiao's strategy is also intriguing and unpredictable. He can come out guns blazing and just try and overwhelm Floyd but Roach knows how good Floyd is when fighters make mistakes. I think Pac will be cautious and less aggressive but when Floyd takes a break, unleash combinations and move out I think we will see a slightly more aggressive Mayweather and a slightly more cautious Pacquiao in first 3-4 rounds. After 4th round, i think one of them will have subdued the other or caused frustration making them change strategy. I disagree with some that think it will be a boring fight, i just don't see it. Both fighters know the importance of this fight and will try and bring their best. Also, have we ever seen a boring Pacquiao fight? I guess perhaps algieri but even that included 6 knock downs.... Floyd won't run like Chris, he will engage more. It will be a fantastic fight, trust me.
old people don't holla and scream at fights...........it will be boring should of been more real fans at the fight
If Mayweather comes out aggressive, he'll find himself on the canvas soon in the fight. For Pacquiao, I highly doubt he'll be that cautious. He's going to be strategically aggressive. This is the fight of his life, and he's not going to risk giving away early rounds to a guy who is known for making adjustments by the 5th. Roach and Pacquiao know the first 4 rounds are must-wins, therefore they will not feel him out. Maybe the first 30 seconds, but after that Pacquiao will work to win every single round with his activity. I promise you. I don't think Mayweather comes out aggressive, but if he does, then that will only have Pacquiao start to trade quicker. Pacquiao doesn't retreat and stay cautious when someone is aggressive the early rounds. That's style is his bread and butter. He'll fight. And Mayweather may start off like that, but it won't last long. AT ALL. I highly doubt he will, tbh. Like highly highly doubt. If he comes out aggressive the first round, you can already give Pacquiao the W.
Pacquiao is tentative, the knockout by JMM is on his mind, plays it safe and moving more than punching. Mayweather as usual feels his opponent and is not doing much. Then all of a sudden the sharp shooter right hand connects followed by quick left hook. Mayweather has found his distance, and this will be pretty much the same combo all night long to an easy points win.
And what..Pacquiao is just going to stand there? He's not going to feint, counter, or make adjustments? Do you think Pacquiao is a rock?
This could very well happen. Could be why Floyd is making so many changes in camp. He knows he has to be even better than he has been, and he is scared his legs are going to fail him. If Floyd comes out aggressive from the get go, this fight is going to be great. And Floyd is gonna touch canvas early :deal
