    Hahha i don't like Pac more than Floyd. I don't like the fact that Floyd doesn't take on the best possible opositon but in fact I like him as a fighter and respect him for his boxing skills and conditioning. But he just lost to Castillo and it was a shame to give the fight to Floyd because for me it wasn't even close. I scored it four points for Castillio. I'm not a professional ref so it's just my opinion but there are a lot of people shearing it!

    Dude, I just said I am a fighter myself in my previous post so how can you tell me I've never tried the sport, I box regularly and have fights.

    And I also gave Floyd his props and I have also in previous posts on other threads said to watch this space but as of now Floyd is still doing the same old bull**** so aint nothing changed yet so until something does then Ill lay off him.

    You know very well what that means. That is my response to the Floydettes who think that PBF will just KO Pacquiao. Won't happen.

    Gotta give Roach his props; the guy knows how to hype a fight. And if this fight does happen, we'll have Roach to thank.

    Who knows what would happen. I remember before the Hatton fight, everyone claimed there was no way he would KO Hatton. Everyone said he would just run the whole time, and that if Hatton could take Tzyu's puncehs he could certainly take Floyd's. Not only did he KO Hatton, he did so going backwards with 10 oz. gloves. Fast, accurate punches that opponents don't see coming will result in knockouts. Given Mayweather's pricsion, accuracy, combined with Pacquiao's tendency to leave himself exposed, it's certainly conceivable for Pac to get stopped against Floyd.

    It's not why he lost people like you are novices to the sport. PBf didn't have problems with anyone. What people like you fail to realize is that it was part of PBF's gameplan in the Zab fight.:deal He knew Zab was a front-runner and fought him accordingly. Somewhere in round 5 or so Unca Roger told PBF to "turn it up", it can be heard on the HBO telecast of the fight, and he did it wokred to perfection. PBF started to walk Zab down and systematically broke him down over the rest of the fight and had him ready to go until the whole low blow thing. PBF even commneted that Zab was a front-runner in the post fight interview and it was part of his stratedgy. Roach can throw that **** he said aout the PBF-Zab fight out of the window.

    You say he's never been in a real fight but then talk about a mutual opponent they both struggled with at 147?

    And what gameplan was this may I ask?

    I don't ever recall losing the opening 5 rounds of a fight to ever have been a gameplan for any boxer?

    Yes, PB turned it up after round 5. But it didn't change the fact that Judah earned those rounds nor was effective on PB while doing it... and I highly doubt "not turning it up" for 5 rounds and losing them were apart of his strategy. That's almost half the fight pard.

    :patsch He didn't lose the first 5 rounds you novice. He split the first 4 rounds and lost the 12th. Zab won no more than 3 rounds in that fight at best.:deal
    Goddamn ESB should start a boxing IQ test before letting people join.

    Well Pimp lets just take it from a real perspective here, in the DLH fight, Roach was able to take a semi retired Oscar and draw up a game plan that would basicly make Floyd work, the fight was close, now I know in your eyes Floyd won every round.
    But most of the fans saw that as a close fight some saw a DLH Win others saw a Draw and some saw a Floyd win, that means the fight was that close.
    Bottom line weather you like to admit it or not, Judah as well gave Floyd alot of trouble early on, those left hands where getting through seemingly easy, the speed and south paw stance has given Floyd trouble not in this fight but also in spots of the Corley fight as well.
    But in the Judah fight there was also another factor, the right hook counter that Judah scored as Floyd was stepping in, it did land and Floyds glove did touch the canvas, there for KD, he wasnt hurt though I am sure it did sting him a bit.
    Now take a look at the first 2 knock downs in the Pacquiao Hatton fight, both from counter right hooks, sure Floyd wont jump in the way Ricky did, nor will he fight like him, the point is Pacquiao also has that right hook to work with.
    I think its safe to say it is a pick em fight, I lean towards Floyd by a close decision, However I will say this, its Highley possible that Manny does have some sort of extraordinary power that could even stop Floyd Mayweather.
    The kid has a high work rate, works the body, and knows how to move around the ring, Honestly its a very good possibility that Floyd gets stopped in this fight, especially if his previous injurys become a factor.

    Fraud has the style to beat him but probably lacks the guts to fight a former flyweight champion specially after what Pac did to Hatton.
