    I've noticed that in his last 2 fights, he has gotten hit a lot more. Marquez caught him cleanly on the chin about 5 times in the fight, but, didn't have the power to hurt him. Mosley almost had him. If that was Pac on the other end, he would of finished him. Freddie may be on to something, or, is he smoking the crack pipe? :smoke

    :rofl

    i didnt realize only getting hit cleanly 5 times through 12 rounds was such a bad thing. Pac got hit more clean in the clottey fight and thats b/c clottey threw about 10 punches. If anything FMJ got hit more in his fights with DLH and Hatton than he did in the ones with SSM and JMM.

    he was hit much more than that in many of his other fights. i believe castillo landed 20+ power punches a few rounds in the first fight.

    Marquez and Mosley are great offensive caliber fighters.
    I'm actually suprised Mayweather did'nt get hit more often against them.

    ....and as far as Mayweather's legs are concerned.......please, you dont more than hold your own against as physically strong a fighter as Mosley is and be able to back him up the way Mayweather did for stretches and then say he has no legs.:lol:

    Freddie Roach is a bafoon.....or should I say the media that believes his every word are bafoons.
    Roach predicted that Mayweather would run from Mosley the entire fight, but instead Mayweather is right in the pocket and focusing in using his speed and quickness to get off first on the slower Mosley.

    The fight played out to a 180 degree turnaround to how Roach had predicted the fight would go.
    Roach had previously said that Mosley was physically too strong for Pacquiao, then Mayweather out physical's Mosley and all of a sudden we're supposed to believe that Mayweather's shot legs were pushing Mosley back?:nut

    just goes to show how versatile Floyd is...people say he will run then he stands his ground now his legs are shot.....he is an extremely difficult fight for any trainer/fighter...dont care how you cut it.

    Freddie says Pac is gonna knock him. I don't think Floyd will stand there and trade with him. Pac ain't Mosley.

    He can fight over that, Mayweather isn't in the same position as RJJ who lost his reflexes and was lost from there. Mayweather can fight through it and if he couldn't then Mosley would have crushed him right there and then.

    Yeah, Pac is smaller, shorter, weaker and has shorter arms.

    Mosley couldnt pull the trigger because of his age. I think if Pacquiao hurts Mayweather he is pretty muched screwed. Like it or not age catches up to everyone.
