Its not just speed. Pac's speed is from his feet, angles, and punches coming from positions you don't expect. I really don't even see Floyd being that fast. Floyd is able to counter fast opponents because he can read their punches and is blessed with the reflexes to counter. But Pac wrote his own book. By the time Floyd learns Pac, he may have given half the rounds coz even he learns Pac's book he still has to deal with the raw speed and power. Pac is just that fast even if you know his style he's execution is still fast enough to catch you. Floyd will have to dig deep and find himself if he really wants to recover the 2nd half.
The man can make 135. Hell he could make 130. I don't know if he would want to dehyrdrate that much, but yea.
I doubt he can make 126. I'm not making up numbers. In the first Morales fight Pacquiao rehydrated to 141 or 142 I can't remember the exact weight. He just weighed in at 144 even though he's trying to put on quality weight. The man can make 135 in his sleep. 130 possibly. He's literally not much bigger than he was in 2005. Making up numbers, my ass.
Not consistently. People blow this out of proportion. They landed at around 20%. They were not timing him well. It's like Maidana. He timed Floyd perfectly at the end of round 3. Does this mean he can time Floyd? No. Because he landed around 20%. You can't say Maidana can time floyd if he landed that poorly. Hell have his moments, but that's all it was. Moments. Same with Pacquiao's opponents.
In the Diaz fight he rehydrated to 147. The guy isnt making 126...at this age, he isnt even making 135. He is not the same guy he was when he fought Morales. thats like saying Floyd only weighed 136 against Corrales....times change
Algieri landed the right hand because Pacquiao let him. PERIOD. He had zero power, so Pacquiao was not bothered or afraid to lunge at him. He was willing to be hit to hit. It would be a different gameplan against Floyd.
