    Floyd has what it takes to beat Pacman, but it goes both ways. This fight will come down to who executes their strategy more effectively and who can last longer. I truley believe that Manny will be Floyds most dangerous opponent to date.

    He is going to have to jackass. Just like in the MAB fight where his opponent was sitting back to reduce the risk factors.

    Floyd will not take the fight to Marquez, it will be the other way around, its how it always is with this guy, even if he holds a size advantage.

    If you weren't such a noob then you would be able to see that. Do you actually think that Marquez is going to sit back and wait for Floyd against another counter-puncher in the biggest fight of his life, he is going for the win my foolish friend. :good

    Saw that as well. Good news to me. Anything to make this fight happen. If Freddie is optimistic that's fantastic as far as I'm concerned.

    Last time Roach trained a fighter to go against Floyd he got his ass whooped. Get ready for more of the same.

    i have a feeling that pac is going to be a TON of trouble for Mayweather. but i think he will still pull it off. he had trouble with corley as well as judah. BUT the main thing is that Mayweather is a genius fighter! he finds out what the other person is doing and capitalizes. notice when he fought hatton as well that the first 2 rounds or so he really didn't do nething but a lot of feints to c how the other person reacts and what they're working with. after that it's over for the other person.

    All of Pac's opponents compare nothing to Floyd. Hatton, Oscar, Marquez, Diaz got nothing on Floyd, skill level-wise. Pac is in for a rude awakening.

    Everyone says they'll get to Floyd's body and break him down but it's always ineffective. Castillo did once, when Floyd had a torn rotator cuff, but it's an imposing task.

    floyd is not going to stand there and stay till for pac to break him down. But why i give pac a chance more than the current welterweight crop is because mayweather will be tested, pac has the full stamina and speed that will make mayweather work his ass for 12 rounds. But mayweather also has the same, thats why he will be tested in this fight. I don't see him using the shoulder roll that much on this fight but more moving and countering pac's offense that will make him win a clear decision or possibly stop pac in the late rounds

    If he shoulder rolls and slip punches in,with his timing skillz and not get hit doing it.He is on his way to a TKO win.IF he shoulder rolls just to block punches, then it might be bad.Floyd does this sometimes.It's arrogance.And no one can hit him clean.Which is frustrating.If pac can hit him for free FLOy will take unecessary punches.But If anyone is good enough or arrogant enough to lay there smirking it off,rollin with the punches and slip shots in. it's FLOYD.
