What you fail to realize is that PBF holds the trump card in this fight.

Homeboy...I think you just owned yourself with this one.:rofl

 

Pimp, question for ya....if Manny pulled out a decision, on a scale from 1-10 (10 being absolutely shocked), how surprised would you be?

 

Excellent thread. The fact is that Pacquiao's only chance to win this thing is to catch Floyd if Floyd pushes for a knockout by pressuring. If Floyd just goes out and does what he does, boxing on the backfoot, Pacquiao is going to be swinging at air and eating counters on the move.

 

Yeah, I mean I'm all for a bit of banter and I know you are too, but the board is just flooded with Floydettes and *******s trying to get "one up" on each other with their rubbish threads and aliases. One giant ****** thread is the way to go.

 

Very much agreed.

It's december.Ican only imagine how february will be.

 

As I've said elsewhere, that would be the shock of my life. The only way I could possibly envision it is if Pacquiao landed several knockdown rounds (likely early) which gave him a wide margin. I don't see Pacquiao actually "winning rounds" off of Floyd, certainly not enough for a 115-113 (7-5) type decision.

 

Has Floyd seen someone like PAC hell no but he has seen fighters who want action who want to trade who want a fight....he always stays calm cool and collected keeps his space and frustrates them to his space.

Pac on the other hand has seen counterpunching yes and he has seen technical boxers yes...but he hasnt had to deal with one who does not stand there with him to trade or for him to fire first then they fire.

Im not saying Floyd has seen any type of talent like Pac's but he has seen that type of fight plan. Pac has not seen anything like Floyd....at all....i think it will be extremely frustrating for him because Floyd wont engage like that....BUT if Floyd does.....this fight could get ugly real quick in favor of PAC.

 

Yep, when you have jokers like bladerunner admitting Floyd's going to win, you know he has to fight back tears to do so. It's a sad, sad story. The best thing they could have hoped for is that the fight never came off and they could invent reasons why Floyd ducked Pacquiao.

 

Just embrace one of the biggest, most significant fights in history. These don't come around very often.

 

That is an exaggeration. Pac was fine cutting and catching Cotto with shots even when Cotto was on his bike.

Pac can catch a moving PBF no problem. He's fast enough to close the distance before Floyd reacts to it. He's the best and fastest in doing that and Floyd will have difficulty adusting to it especially if you add his awkward movement.

Floyd is fighting a guy who is tireless and does not get discouraged easily. You think Floyd's gonna be safely moving around without much damage for 12 rounds? No. Pac's gonna catch him and catch him good. Floyd doesn't throw more than 2 punches at a time, he has to throw more than that to back him up(i.e Morales and JMM). Otherwise, Pac will be all over his face and will start hitting Floyd. And there ain't nothin 'Money' can do about it. The ring can only get so big.
