IMO Floyd could've forced a stoppage but he chose to play safe and win rounds

Brilliant game plan! Undoubtedly he could've stopped Pacquiao. Anyway he did well cos he leaved himself a door open for an eventually rematch. If he would've T/K.O'ed Pacquiao most people would've not be interesting to see a rematch.:good

 

He was nowhere near stopping a handicaped pac ahahahhaahha

 

i wish somebody got ko. that would have been great

 

You still here?

 

Stoppage by the hug

It could be Columbo episode.

 

Pac's chin was shattered before and Floyd has respectable power in his hands. Floyd chose to outbox Pac.

 

I was predicting a floyd KO, as I thought manny would walk into his acurate straight hard right, but if he ain't knocking an injured manny out then I don't know about a healthier one who might be able to throw a bit more

I was surprised floyd didn't KO him tbh

 

tbqh I thought what you describe here is one of the things that I thought Manny did well. Early on he had good movement, and he did not let Floyd hit him flush. He either blocked the jab or moved in a way to prevent Floyd from setting up the right. Floyd landed that right a few times later in the fight, but early on I thought it was actually smart strategy and well executed to make it hard for Floyd to land clean. To some extent, what Pac-Man was doing was working. And that's why I legit think Pac won 3 of the first 6 rounds. (2, 4, and 6) And 7 was very close too.

 

he is not a warrior. he fears for his "o" and he lacks power so he hugs and runs

 

if floyd forced a ko...he might end up being ko'd

 

Next to zero chance Floyd would have gotten a KO. Despite not landing much Pac was the one who hurt/wobbled Floyd a few times.
