No doubts in my mind after pacs one sided victory over Cotto that if anyone of this generation can beat Mayweather it would be Pacqiaou. This fight needs to happen not just because it would be a great fight but also because it's good for boxing as a sport.
If Floyd fights Pac like he did Judah, he's getting KO'd. If he runs like a chicken and potshots, he might win a decision, but I have doubts about that. Pacquaio will force him to fight. I also have serious doubts FLoyd can hurt Manny. Cotto couldn't dent him with best shots. All Pac needs is a real good gameplan set up via Freddy Roach. ** Lets be honest though, does anyone actually think Floyd wants to step into the ring with this guy?? Maybe he'll do it for the money, but we know he doesn't want to risk losing a fight.
Easy 12 round win from you know who. Pac needs you to slug with him. A discipline boxer will out point him. You saw how frustrated pac got chasing cotto. I know someone who could do the job at hand, do you? LOL
I think you have a point there. Slicker boxers would give him problems, but he was on blistering form tonight, tonights Pac is a favorite against any fighter
Dunno. It looked to me like from round 7 onwards that Cotto was attempting to run and potshot. It probably saved him from an earlier KO. PacMan wasn't able to cut off the ring as often as he wanted to. He was hitting a lot of air as well as a fair bit of Cotto. I have a feeling that against PBF who is a master at the run+potshot game that Pacman will have even more trouble chasing him down.
By round 9 Pac was hunting Cotto down and taking him apart. They were seirously considering stopping the fight at that point. Ya he did look a bit annoyed in the last 3 rounds by all of the running... but that's where a gameplan comes in. Freddy Roach will prepare Manny for that kind of fight.
Mayweather will take him apart. He has too much reach and speed and a defense that is better than cottos. You saw cotto was able to tag Manny with solid jabs throughout the fight tonight. When he fights Floyd those will be right hands.
unfortunately,pbf will probably price hisself out. but, if enough fans hoot and holler he amy be shamed into taking the fight. the ? will be the catch weight. I can see pbf wanting it at 150 and pac at 145...
