    The funny thing is that Floyd didn't even need to adjust against Pacquiao.

    Exactly and I still contend that Zab's style was the hardest match up for him. I said this before the Pac fight and said the Zab fight would be harder for PBF than Pac would be.:deal Zab had the ability to beat PBF to the punch he was the better athlete had a jab and was a natural counter puncher. A bad match up for PBF IMO this is an underrated win for PBF.

    Because Froid knows he NEVER won fairly. All he did was run & hold like always. Where was the aggression & going for the KO he promised. The fool claims it was PAC that was timid ROFLMAO Jeez ever Daddy Mayweather asked Froid " Why are you "fighting scared" ? ROFLMAO
    If it was a fair fight & the NSAC didn't sabotage Pacquaio Why did a commissioner resign in disgust & embarrassment over it??? No one seems to want to address that fact:patsch:patsch

    Literally only three. Castillo, De La Hoya and Maidana.
    He is 1-1 against Castillo. Beat a PAST PRIME De La Hoya, and is 1-0-1 against Maidana.
    He never fought Margarito or Williams. Even though you may or may not think he would have beaten them, they are the stylistic threats.
    Prime Pacquiao is a threat, the past prime injured Pacquiao has had his very 'threat' removed by being in that condition.

    Mayweather is not as great as people would believe. I don't mean to sound like a hater, he's Top 50 ATG.

    Correct me if i'm wrong, but i watched a Sparring match between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao on May 2nd? Now when's the actual fight of the century gonna take place in? I can't wait for it...

    Why? Because no one wants to do business with a sore loser and excuse maker

    Well yes, and no.
    I've watched the fight blindfolded and biased towards Pacquiao. I think Pac shut out floyd 12-0. He didn't do anything. He just ran for his life for 12 rounds.

    Pac now tends to keep his feet planted when he's is danger of being tagged (in the past he has been caught with no feet on the ground).

    Given the substantial height and reach advantage, Manny was often in Floyd's range but out of his favoured mid-range.

    The few times Manny did try to take half steps forward to come into range he found Floyd moving away and countering.

    Often Manny stood still with Algieri. The difference was that Algieri shelled up when Manny came forward (no risk of return fire)

    imo, this is why we got what we got (either that or Pacs footwork deteriorated markedly within a few months)
