Floyd Mayweather Jr. (compared to Mosley & Cotto) is the safest fight for Pacquiao...

I voted for Cotto, because with him PAC will have a huge advantage interms of speed.

Yes, Floyd is the least destructive among the 3.

 

thats what you think. pac wouldnt like the taste of counter right hands form mayweather. he didnt seem to like them form marquez. and you dont have get bruised too much to get whooped decisvely

 

The majority of Mayweather's last few opponents have been pretty banged up by the end of the fight anyway.

 

Cotto

 

Trying to neutralize the right hand will be key for Roach and Pacquiao (much like it is to neutralize Pacquiao's straight left hand).

A key punch against a lefty, a punch that Pacquiao was susceptible to in his fights with Marquez and Morales (along with the jab), Mayweather's best punch.

Mayweather has a good left hook so I think Pacquiao might want to switch it up and slide to his left after throwing that quick straight left. He likes to slide to his right after throwing that punch.

Mosley's a bigger and more physical guy than Mayweather so he could do some serious damage to Pacquiao. Mosley's strong and likes to clinch, and this can drain energy from a smaller man like Pacquiao. On the other hand, Mosley's easier to hit than Mayweather, older, and not as sound technically. He also paws with his jab a lot, and likes to wing with his right hand. Pacquiao is more likely to be able to avoid that winging right hand than the more straight right hand of PBF.

 

Pac is a busy fighter, not good for Void.

 

thats thewhole thing, pac wont land as much on mayweather like he did on jmm or anybody else he fought. he makes pac miss, he counters, and pac gets tagged.

 

The last time a speedy lefty landed on Mayweather with some decent consistency, he applied more pressure and got the timing down, particularly with the straight right hand.

Once Mayweather adjusts to Pacquiao and starts timing him, Roach and Pac are going to need a game-plan to re-adjust.

 

None of them are safe fights for Pac. However... Floyd would be the toughest match-up due to his great counterpunching. Mosley would be next... because of his speed, timing, and chin. Cotto would still be hell on wheels to beat, but he presents Pac with the easiest target and tends to be the most vulnerable of the three.

 

Floyd is the safest damage wise, but not most winnable.

1- Cotto
2- Floyd
3- Shane

That's how I see it as far as winnable. Even though Mayweather could definitely knock Pac out, it's gonna be less of a war.

 

Serious?

Ivan wouldn't take a beating from Floyd?
