    To give your boy a chance? I know you're trolling but it isn't working. Nobody cares.

    Only fighters under Arum's stable are instructed to be punching bags for Pacquiao. Pacquiao, "he didn't stand there so I can punch him." LOL

    Moreover, EVERYONE knew Floyd would pick his spots to fight and cruise to a victory. Pac was the one promising a KO. That fight went exactly as anyone who knows boxing and Floyd's style would go.

    Floyd's undefeated because he's smart. He boxes to his advantages, not his opponents advantages. Trading with Pacquaio, a guy that can take Floyd's punch and also deliver a punch would not of been a wise move. No point anyway, Floyd won doing what he does best, and that's box.

    He's a cheerleader like Richards

    Maybe, we'll never know. I'm celebrating Pac' s hypothetical victory though. You happy?

    Because he didn't have to, it's up to you to force your style on the opponent.
    See what GGG did to Monroe Jr.

    The question you should be asking is: why couldn't Pac make Floyd go toe to toe with him?

    Pac supposedly has awesome footwork. Pac was supposed to use all kind of angles. Pac found out that only works on stationary, slow plodders. Floyd fought his fight not Pac's fight.

    Anyhow back to the topic. Manny is mostly effective against guys who just stand and trade with him. Sure Floyd knew that and exploited his one dimensional ass. Oh wait, he did. You guys have yourselves to blame for hyping Manny up. Even Bradley made him look like ****. What did you all think Floyd was going to do lmao

    Forever #48.
