    That's why I have so much more respect for Morales, warrior to the very end.

    Hatton as you said has a style that negates his speed. Plod forward head down arms flailing doesn't do much for your speed.

    And let's not forget Zab was holding his own for a while against Floyd partially because? He was beating him to the punch.

    zab and pacman have very few similarities between one another.... especially between one another styles & techniques

    My point was that Zab is the fastest opponent Floyd has taken on in ages. He was able to land because he got there first, partially due to his speed.

    If you go from fighting snails and blown up LWWs and LWs to fighting an opponent whose sleek of feet and has quick hands to match, well...there could be a potential system shock.

    the first 3-4 rounds of the zab fight were due to what zab was doing stylistically and what floyd WASNT doing stylistically ....it wasnt the speed thing... obviously the speed made a difference but zab had a great plan originally and floyd took away zab's option and after that zab got totally discouraged

    Pac has Zab's speed, has Zab's power, has Zab's southpaw stance... but is better in every other way. Better chin, more heart, better stamina, better everything else. Be warned!

    Was Pac exciting in his two ko losses and two draws? Let me show everyone here who the real fan is of boxing and who the joke is:lol:. You care about excitement in fights, I don't. This sport has many so-called boring fighters in the H.O.F that I don't know where to start:lol:. I can't believe that you even wrote that *** of a post about who had more boring fights, but then again you told us how Dlh would beat Pac too lol... I can watch a brawl or snoozer, and I've never been put to sleep watching a so-called boring fight...ever.

    I don't care how many boring fights you think Floyd or Pac had. Fans pay to see both fight so neither is boring ******* lol. I care about wins and losses. You are a fake ass boxing fan with the most basic opinion on this forum. The day that you tried to pull that "my best friend who I work with is a Calzaghe fan and he even thinks that Pac is better than Calzaghe was comical. I haven't read a post from your friend since lol... WHO IN THE FUK CARES what you think about boxing let alone any fighter in this sport??? I've exlaxed on you, and you've been exlaxed on in your own threads...using alts and shite lol.

    Ya know that's not contradictory in the slightest :lol:

    My argument (which you seem to be fighting for the sake of fighting) is that Floyd hasn't fought anyone as fast as Manny in a long time and the last guy he DID fight had some success against him partially because he was able to match him speed wise. As per a great game plan, won't Manny have one as well?

    Basically t's one thing to go from driving a moped to racing in the Indy 500. It's entirely possible that Floyd could have a small system shock if he goes from a turtle to a gazelle.

    Yawn. Your comebacks used to be better than this feeble ****. Go back on this thread, find another of my posts, and have another crack at the champ. :good

    ha ha ha i mean it kind of is.... but like the way zab fights it makes a difference.... the way manny fights it might not make a difference... thats the point i was trying to make


    i agree with what your saying but i mean... they spar for **** like that

    Yes, there are. But the basic point has validity - Zab used a combination of southpaw unorthodoxy and raw speed to initially trouble Floyd. Pac has those attributes, and a whole lot more. If anything, it signifies Pac will give Floyd a closer and more perilous night than Zab did.

    Yeah, it was PAc's fault. He should've stood more flat footed and broke M.A.B down.

    I hear ya...but you can only spar for something so much before you deal with the real thing. That's why JMM is a weird opponent to come back straight from. He's nothing stylistically like Pac, doesn't have the speed factor Floyd needs to fight amongst other things.
