    The thing is theres no such thing anymore as 'pacquiao going backwards'. pac only moves in two directions and thats forwards and to the side. if hes being pressed, he'll look to catch the other guy coming in, duck and pivot away. he does in all his recent fights over and over round after round.

    So what you're saying is Pac was already juicing as far back as 2003? In this fight, Pac never lets up, actually looks faster and busier in Round 11.

    PEDs.... the newest trend in finding ways to dicredit Pac. Weight draining is so yesterday.

    Wouldn't this mean Mayweather's style of showing offense behind a high guard would be very risky against Pacquiao?
    Mayweather will already know that he does not need to get himself into a fight, this is what he has been best at in the past.

    dont take walking down to mean "showing offence" ala ricky hatton, or 'getting into a fight". he wont get into a fight. he'll be disciplined, methodical and pick his spots smartly, as always, just simply out of a different stance. difference is he wont be able to evade or counter as well as normal.

    but the point is the high guard is the LEAST risky way to fight manny. like i said the philly shell leaves u open to straight lefts and the one southpaw's left u dont leave yourself open to is pacquiaos, for its speed and power. money knows that. he didnt show zab the shell much out of respect for his speed, and he will show mannys speed the same respect.

    Pac pivots to the side after a counter or evading punches. Then try to connect a punch while evading. He throws punches in so many angles, even on awkward stances.

    Forget about Pac's body that man is ripped. Especially since it's May, I don't think May can hurt Pac in the body imo.

    he beats Manny cus he will outthink Manny and adjust faster than Manny....there skills in what they do off set each other soo much that it will be about who can out think who and without the help of corner time.



    Floyd wins in this department and wins the fight....he has more tools than Pac all around....plus great footwork great speed and great reflexes just as Pac.

    Plus you gotta stop looking at his past southpaws...they are all bigger and LONGER than Pac....Pac will have to give up alot more than them to pull off some things....Floyd will use his space very effective in this fight.

    What? This is an example you use? You think he will get away with that lunging and bouncing against Mayweather? Please.

    He won't throw all of those punches. He won't be close enough. When he is he will get punched in his face.

    PEDs... the trend that people tend to go to when you run away from the biggest fight in your career and keep telling lies as to why you did it. :deal

    You think sizing each other up measuring range Pac would beat Mayweather to the punch? I don't. So even being in the shell won't be too big a deal.

    If you think Manny is as fast as or as tricky as Zab you are mistaken. Don't take that as me saying Zab is a better fighter. He isn't, but Manny won't beat Mayweather to the trigger like Zab did.

    sIMPLY.....No one matches Pacs footwork and that's how he wins.... Pac will move every second of every round... And any time Floyd stays stationary he gets pummeled..Floyd plays a waiting game, with Pac he'll wait all night.... Pac proved he doesn't need openings, he makes them...

    No all we need to know is that they are ducking drug tests giving random excuses that they contradict constantly. Only morons don't see Team Pac is full of it.

    Full of ****.... He'll throw plenty of punches... more reserved than the Clottey fight, but no less than his norm.... Floyd gets hit, but he plays mental games and it causes his foes not to lead... Manny will lead and if he does, well u know...
