1. Manny isn't faster than Floyd. (look what happened to Shane) 2. Castillo was a more committed "stalker" than Manny. 3. Manny punches from angles very effectively, but Floyd uses angles to disrupt your movement, punching, etc. 4. Floyd isn't stupid enough to exchange with Manny. He won't hit him nearly as much as he hits most opponents. Probably should have looked more like this. Manny is a southpaw with great power. He can physically keep punching. (don't know if he will given Floyd's defensive brilliance) He's a strong-willed warrior that won't give in easily. Floyd is a stylistic nightmare for Manny. He poses some problems, but Manny is going to have more trouble in this match.
FLOYD IS A MASTER AT NOT LETTING HIS OPPONENTS GET ANGLES...ONE OF THE REASON HE IS ARGUABLY THE GREATEST DEFENSIVE FIGHTERS OF ALL TIME... FLOYD AND MANNY ARE IN THE SAME SPEED CATEGORY IF THERE WAS ONE... HATTON WAS A "MORE COMMITED" STALKER ACTUALLY..IT COST HIM IN THE END..I HOPE PAC IS MORE COMMITED..HE'LL MAKE MORE MISTAKES TOO LMFAO..I DOUBT FLOYD WILL 'TAKE MORE PUNCHES" .....FLOYD IS ELUSIVE..THERE IS A REASON ROACH DID NOT PUT PAC IN THERE WITH FLOYD MARCH 13TH...THEY WOULD NEED MORE TIME TO PREPARE AND HE SAID IT HIMSELF... THE TS NEEDS A NEW ARGUMENT AND SOME BETTER $HIT TO BACK HIS/HER OPINION... U JUST GOT PUT IN SCHOOL TShi:
1) what does Floyd vs Shane have to do with Manny having quicker hands, Shane was on the down side of his career when he fought Floyd, good win for Floyd but still style wise shane and Manny are night and day..... 2) key word was, as in back in the day right now Manny is the most vicious stalker power punching combonation pitcher in the game 3) Agreed, but Floyd does not throw as many shots and the way Manny throws Floyd will eat shots, also consider this, Floyd has had trouble with every south paw he has faced and has been hurt by them, refer to Floyds interview after he fought and beat Mosley, he admits both Corley and Judah hurt him as well both are south paws. 4) Floyd is going to have to risk getting hit to counter, so he will exchange in spots if he goes full defensive that wont win the fight.... the bottom half of the post I disregard, Manny is a threat to all Welters right now, Floyd just might be his easiest fight.....
Your putting Hatton in the same class as Manny as a stalker? hatton comes straight in and who countered Ricky quicker? Took Manny 2 rounds. 1 to blind him and the second to deliver one of the best counter shots in years. Floyd got him in 9 on the amateur check hook. Manny stalks with angles not straight in but from the Southpaw stance. The southpaws Floyd faced before were either converted to southpaw or did not have much of a right hook as does Manny. Floyd will have his toughest defensive test on his hands and will get outboxed and be more gun shy than ever just having to worry what Manny can hurt him with. If Floyd was the real #1 he would have a bit more power, throw combinations and have a slightly better chin. If those three things were turned up a notch he would be #1 but then again if my aunt had balls she would be my uncle.
tl;dr, but I am going to assume the original poster essentially said Mayweather has never faced anyone like Pacquiao. Well the exact opposite is true as well. Pacquiao has NEVER EVER faced anyone like Mayweather. He avoided Raheem, skipped by both Guzman and Campbell during his title crusades. So assuming he skipped those guys for a reason, it would mean he has trouble with boxers. If that is the case, Mayweather would dominate him. But this doesn't mean **** unless they fight.
well after all the "floyd will never ever fight mosley" threads, i'm pretty sure this guarantees the fight
Maybe some bull ****, assuming you're correct, because Cotto's the only catchweight fight of Pac so far!:good
