    Freddywak says he believe floyd will easily pot shot his way to a victory and stink the place up....

    Pacquiao by UD. Floyd doesn't have the power to stop him and doesn't have the workrate to match him IMO. Pac has the speed, the power, the chin, the movement, the footwork, the activity levels, the unorthodox stance, the in-out attack style - he has the perfect style to beat Floyd, if he keeps the fight circling in the centre of the ring. As long as he works so hard in training that his stamina is absolutely endless, I see his insane workrate winning this fight and shocking the world. He will certainly land more shots on Floyd than anyone has before.

    It's possible he could. Floyd defensively is on another level above Manny. Offensively of course there's a hell of a lot closer discrepancy. That said if Floyd gets it going early and puts Manny in a whole points wise, he could almost certainly put on a boring but safe performance.

    I don'[t think it'll happen though.

    How does floyd not have the power to stop pacman? but jmm almost put pacman on his ass?


    I'm not trying to argue but just trying to indicate what each fighter has on top of the other fighter

    This actually is a much better point going beyond power. Floyd has tremendous placement and snap on his punches. He might not have the pure "power" to hurt Pac but when you take into the fight that Floyd has the precision and speed and angles that Pac has only seen in a guy like JMM, you can certainly see how Floyd could hurt him.

    It would be one of the best fights ever. Pacquiao will set the tone early and catch Mayweather. by the 3-4 round Mayweather realizes that hes gonna have to swing to win this fight so he starts exchanging. by 7-8 both guys are bleeding and swing like no other, then Pacquiao gets KO. the fight would be so good that they do a rematch but PPL still claim Mayweather is ducking Mosley. a brother cant win...

    thats all im saying...

    its not like pacman is a defensive phenom or has a world class chin or somtehing

    im not saying floyd will definitely hurt or put pacman down but im just throwing out the obvious... or what should be obvious

    that was the time when pac was moving sideward with one foot off the ground and he got caught. the second incident was he was busy tending his cut and he couldnt see what was coming. i do believe he threw only 5 punches on that round .

    You forgot to add how "PAc could stink out the gym if he fought Floyd the same way he fought Agipito Sanchez" category.

    It's just my opinion - I can't see Floyd stopping Pac. I could be wrong of course, but I do believe that. I don't think Floyd carries as much power above 140 that he did earlier in his career - it took him 10 rounds to get rid of Hatton whereas Pac blasted him into orbit in less than 2.

    JMM did not manage to knock Manny down in 24 rounds - and you have seen what JMM can do to lightweights who have never been stopped before (Diaz & Casamayor).

    Manny's chin is horribly underrated... mainly due to KO losses to the body over a decade ago when he was skinny, green, and weight-drained!

    JMO - no matter who wins, Floyd v Pac will definitely go the distance.
