    IMO Pac doesnt have the same speed as Mayweather.....not close at all..Mayweather has a way better array of punches to throw...from counters to the body and he places them more accurately..Manny is a volume puncher and appears fast vs methodical opponents

    I think Manny has faster hands. In terms of footwork, upper body movement, reaction time, Floyds faster. But Manny has faster hands.

    Floyd has far better footwork then Pac. Its why Mayweather doesnt leave fights with a busted ear drum and swollen face.

    Intangibles is Floyd. Weight, reach, just overall size favors Floyd.

    Heart? Both have been in dangerous positions and come back to win. Floyd vs Castillo 1 for example.

    Accuracy? Floyd by far. Are you kidding me? Floyd lands punces at 50% a clip, the best since compubox started recording.

    , though Mayweather's is under-rated.

    Accuracy:
    This content is protected
    , Pac's is improving though.

    Speed: Relatively equal, but I'd edge towards

    - especially at 147.

    Ring Intelligence:

    , not to say Pacquiao isn't smart, but Floyd clearly.

    Adaptability: I'd say

    again. He can be more aggressive and trade when he needs to, better than Manny can adapt to boxing off the back foot.

    Defense:

    by miles.

    Inside Work:
    This content is protected
    . Pacquiao's punching is done at mid-range. Floyd I think is more effective inside, especially taking into account defense.

    Chin: Relatively
    This content is protected
    , not a major issue in this fight, both fighters can take the others punches.

    Stamina: Initially I'd edge towards Pacquiao because of his punch volume, but he does take the first minute or so of every round off. Floyd paces himself better. Overall I'd say
    This content is protected
    because he can maintain the same level of energy at any point in a fight.

    Trainer: I'll say
    This content is protected
    with Roach. Roger does a great job and Floyd Sr I suspect will be helping out, but Roach has dramatically improved Pacquiao in the last few years. All 3 are excellent though.

    Footwork: Both have good footwork, but I'd say
    This content is protected
    again.

    Heart: I'll say
    This content is protected
    , but Floyd's adaptiblilty and composure also allows him to come back from adversity.

    Ring Generalship:
    This content is protected
    , isn't this technically the same as ring IQ?

    Intangibles: What do we mean here? Physical assets? If so,

    Ring IQ: Now we really are scrapeing the bottom of the barrell. This is the same as ring intelligence & ring generalship. As said before,

    Prediction:

    by unanimous decision.

    He doesn't leave with a busted ear drum coz he doesn't fight WW or Miguel Cotto.

    He runs around the ring against power hitters who can take his best shots

    and take it to him.
