    He has the skills in the bag, he just doesnt want to fight much, he runs and clinches but at the end of the day he does very little in a way that makes his opponant do even less and as much as you want to praise the aggressor in Mayweather fights Floyd has ended up doing more by looking like he is doing less.

    Watch the first round. Manny got caught with a couple of hard right hands after doing all of that jumping and other horrific footwork he's known for...changed his sh*t up after that. Knew he couldn't get away with that nonsense against Money.

    So we just going to ignore that he has hand problems? And then pretend like he isnt fighting guys that outweigh him 15-20lbs on fight night?

    Mannys deceptive footspeed has slowed. The speed that hed come into range with threw his opponants and the the hand speed was just as deceptive.

    But the same thing has always been said about Floyds defence. People have had serious problems landing anything of serious note, and if they did they wouldnt land another for another 3 rounds.

    So if those little quirks negated each other than with what your left with Floyd still beats Manny. This fight should of happened 5 or 6 years ago but even then i see the same winner.

    He probably outweighed Pac

    But they are about sane size

    Mayweather also has a good left hook.

    This goes back to Mosley saying that Pac's punches are weird, not devastating, but have a real snap to them. Floyd had a deep respect for Pac's power, which is why he didn't go try to go for the KO despite having a huge advantage in defense, size, and reach. Pac hurt Floyd, Floyd never hurt Pac. And this is Pac drug tested 13X

    Pac did, but got jobbed by politics. :hi: Doesnt change the fact that an old, faded, injured Pac managed to hurt FLoyd. never been more clear how badly Floyd ducked a prime Pac

    You don't know anything about boxing. You thought that a guy who could only fight at one range with no jab who can't make adjustments had a shot at beating the most complete fighter of this era.:lol::rofl Do yourself a favor and take off the hater glasses and give PBF his due and admit he's the better fighter and always has been.

    Figures you would say that. Life in Pacland must be wonderful. You don't have to deal with reality. To be honest, I didn't see Pac hurt Mayweather. Mayweather went to the ropes in the fourth round and let Pac hit his arms and air but he wasn't hurt.

    My God when will this non-sense stop. Pac was outclassed. Floyd is in a whole different league. Pac threw 6 punch combos hitting air nothing else. Floyd was toying with him for many rounds, it was embarrassing to watch.
