    What do you want to hear?
    You saw Pacquiao fight.
    Volume punching. Constant agression. Head movement. Always hit back.
    I dont fell Pacquiao game plan is that much complicated. Few could do that for 12 rounds. He can.

    You dont believe he can win, we know that. Now, everything we can say won't convince you.

    Not saying he would yet. Just think he could.

    no ... thats not what im saying..
    i saw pacq fight and i know his strengths ..what im saying is how is he going to use his strengths to neutralize floyds strengths and expose his weaknesses.... I mean i personally believe floyd will win but what i want is someone to convince me how paqciou has a chance... im not asking someone to convince me he can win but i want to know specifically what he will do to floyd to beat him

    so paqman ud?


    so far this is the understanding i have from reading all the pac supporters........

    paqman has superior strength & speed in comparison to anyone who floyd has ever fought before and wont know how to deal with this power & speed so paqman will stand in the center of the ring and box floyd to a decision?

    a la floyd vs gatti?

    I couldn't tell you exactly as he shocked the world against de la Hoya and Mayweather has a pretty good layoff working in Pacquiao's favor but somewhere under 50% to me.

    Yeah, if Floyd can last the distance. I don't think Floyd is aggressive enough to do what it would take to win the fight. There's not going to be any lulls in the action, nor is Manny going to fade like Judah. People are banking on Manny being too aggressive, over committing, and coming in wide and Floyd taking advantage of that. But that's not going to happen. Manny doesn't do that anymore. He's progressed as a fighter. If anyone might over commit and reach, I'd think it'd be Floyd because he'll most likely have to play catch up and force his offense which is not natural for him, and I can see him getting caught like he did when Judah knocked him down.

    Yea...it's possible. I just don't think it's a huge possibility that he pulls this one off. I said the same thing about DLH as well. But I will say it won't be a cake walk for floyd. Probably one of his hardest if not the hardest fight on his resume should the fight come off. Manny can make things interesting with his speed, power and movment but I think with as intelligent Floyd is he's able to make mid fight adjustments and take away PAC's rythm which is necessary to beat Floyd....if you aren't in a flow in there with Floyd that means he is in his Flow.....that isn't a good thing for anyone floyd is fighting.

    But yes...absolutely PAC has a chance to upset Floyd.

    No, think the first few rds that he lost to Judah, spanned over 12 rds, against a guy who's just as fast (if not faster), with a better workrate, that doesn't fade, is arguably more powerful and more elusive.

    if they both fought the same hoya then i give pac a 55% chance of winning.
    since i dont think they fought the same oscar i have to put pac at about a 40% to beat floyd.

    so its 50% - 50%?

    yet jmm took paq to the limit twice?

    so he is going to "OUTBOX" FLOYD MAYWEATHER
    so floyd mayweather can fight offensively with a smaller fighter? like he did for the first 3/4ths of his career when he fought under the welterweight limit?

    hum...i would not compare it to the Judah first few rounds. Judah beat Floyd at his game. One quick pot shot at the time.

    Manny would throw many more punches.

    i dont give a **** what floyd does ... he aint my pops.. it would be an exciting matchup... if hes retired hes retired... if he comes back he comes back... i could give 2 shits

    so the fact that floyd & pac have 2 different fighting styles makes no difference to you?
    paul williams tko'd quintana in 1 ..
    cotto tko'd quintana in 6-7 (i think)..
    so paul williams tko's cotto?

    nah

    so it would be zab vs floyd part 2? except manny is faster & stronger than zab?


    your hate is pathetic

    Even at that point he was still waiting more than Pacquiao in any of his fights. Not saying its bad because the guy is a master at counterpunching. Who was the last guy throwing fluries against Mayweather (except De La Hoya with his sloppy punches)
