This is my main reason why Pac can't beat Floyd...

I would tend to agree here, especially regarding the jab to the body.

One danger for Floyd in this fight is that his best plan involves giving up real estate and looking for counters. If he stays too patient and the counters don't come, or if he has trouble landing the jab, he might find himself losing rounds based on inactivity. I would be shocked if Floyd chose this fight to start opening up offensively, but there might come a point in the fight where he will have to.

The other option is to stand his ground with the front shoulder, but this will give Manny the chance to unload flurries. Countering single shots from distance seems like the safer proposition.

 

if some of you think that that pacquiao just gonna run through mayweather then u are sadly mistaken. beating barrera, morales, marquez hatton and dlh is impressive but none of those guys compre to mayweather in terms of style and defensive skills.

 

you just contradicted yourself in the other thread after you saw Pac beat up Hatton. You said he has a great chance against Floyd Nallege, I respect you as a poster but you're full of **** sometimes.

 

I agree with all the positive attributes you bestow upon Floyd. However, at this stage in his career Floyd doesn't seem to ever throw "bombs" and he just isn't busy.

These are two facts that worry me. How do you win on points when you don't throw a lot of punches. How do you stop a fighter when you are dependant on him running into something.

I think that even the most avid PBF fan would have to agree that in order to beat Pac it can't be like any method we've seen in either the Hatton or ODH fight. I dont doubt that he's up for it, but we are going to have see the best of PBF.

 

Pac can beat Mayweather, I dont think he will, but I toatlly think that Pacquiaos the only one that can do it. Its not Miguel " I get hurt every fight" Cotto or Mosley " I have trouble with boxers" Mosley. I think Pacquiao even has a better chance then Williams. Now I think Mayweather beats Pacquiao but if Pacquiao won I wouldnt be surprised

 

no offense taken:good just give an honest assessment on the flipside of the coin.

Can't wait to read it.

 

I don't see any smaller fighter beating Mayweather. He already has so many technical advantages that it will require someone who can neutralize those advantages with height and reach to beat him (ie, a younger DLH or Paul Williams). If JMM hurt Pac, Mayweather will knock him out .

 

Because he's black?

 

pacquiao definately has a chance. that speed and ferocity, will bother anybody but even in a victory, pac-man will see more counter fight hands from mayweather that he would have ever seen before.

 

im a big ******* i think floyd will win simply because of his sound defence and his ability to just slip and slide any shot. his jab with much longer reach than pac will gain him the points for a 12 round win on UD.

but im not counting pac out of this fight, i think he has a good chance to win too, as good as floyd is in his elusiveness moves and defence he is not unpenatrable. he will get hit eventually. whether its enough times or hard enough we will wait and see.
