    Wasn't trying to answer it. All your posts that I've seen have expressed bias, therefore logical and objective boxing analysis is not a conversation I'd imagine we can have.

    Floyd Mayweather vs Manny Pac

    Will be like watching

    Floyd Mayweather vs Ricky Hatton..

    Only difference being, Floyd Mayweather won't knock Manny Pac out.

    It will be a split decesion, it's a toss up..!!!

    The same way Erik Morales dealt with it. You don't know **** about boxing. Mayweather is first going to stick that jab on his ass, which will make Pac have to respect it because you work everything off of the jab. You must understand that Pac has 3 losses so its not like he can't be beat.

    Styles make fights and Floyd's style is terrible for Pac. Pac's only and best chance is that he throws from odd angles with serious power. Floyd will have to be on his toes to avoid getting caught with a bomb out of left field. But I think Floyd will adjust, like he always does, and coast to an easy UD.

    Floyd can def do it, you can never count this guy out of a fight no matter who he is fighting.

    This will probably also be one of the first time's that Floyd will fight a fighter who is just as dedicated and supremely conditioned just like him.

    As for the fight, who know's man? These guys have continued to impress everyone with victories over fighters who we never thought they could beat in the fashion they did.

    Pac is a little on the small side but freddie roach I think would devise a great game plan.

    People gotta stop comparing the pacquiao of 5 years ago to the current one. He has improved his game beyond any measure.

    hahahahahahahahahahahahahahah

    Holy ****, you guys are ****ing ridiculous

    You complain that Floyd does nothing but pot shot and run in his fights, he gets **** about it constantly about being in "boring" fights because he constantly moves away and hits his opponents at will without giving them the opportunity to hit back.

    He decides to push Mosley back, a tactic he even alluded to before the fight, by standing his ground, fighting in the pocket and countering off of his guard and suddenly instead of being a runner, he's now lost his legs?

    How will Pac deal with the fact that he has no asset that is greater than Floyd - not even punching power. If Floyd threw reckless punches like Pacquaio, he'd have the same power.

    You gotta be joling.

    he will deal with it by using his greater hand speed, greater accuracy, almost impenetrable defence the way he's despatched 41 opponents i always fancied pac but watching floyd against mosley it just showed me how versatile he is and im seriously leaning towards floyd i hope this fight happens more than any other fight the boxing world could throw at me atm please guys make a compromise!!!

    how floyd will deal with pac's:

    foot speed - floyd has good foot speed too. he just opted to be more agressive than usual in that recent, don't buy what roach has said. that's just how he is when he is interviewed.

    handspeed - they're at par in that category IMO

    angles - defense

    hahahaha this is absolutely hilarious to me. people on this board were constantly criticizing floyd for running once he gets into the ring with an opponent.


    but in this case he developed a game plan with shane.. stayed in there and completely outclassed mosley and now people are saying that he can't move like he used to..

    In the ring he can't lose. With his critics he can't win.

    What do you mean 'he couldn't deal with Judah'?

    The closest scorecard of that fight was 116-112, which means 8 rounds to 4. And it was for Mayweather.

    Another judge had it 11-1, and the third one 9-3.

    I believe he dealt with Judah pretty well.

    Mayweather would use his elbow forearm and physical strength to bully Pacqiuao

    Manny Pacquiao stood directly in front of Cotto and slugged it out instead of moving. He stood directly in front of Clottey and ate shots instead of moving. The last time he moved significantly was against DLH a couple of years ago.

    So why isn't anyone claiming that Manny doesn't have his legs anymore? He's had less movement than Floyd in his recent fights.
