JMM says Pac is faster than Floyd...

I still believe Mayweather will win this. Marquez said his defense is impeccable and incredible .

Also look at all those comments at the bottom.
And they say mayweather fans are as bad as pacman fans............

 

It doesn't change what will happen in the fight at all. Even if manny might be a tad bit faster, Floyd knows how to cut down speed and make it useless. Mosley, who has some of the best handspeed, wasn't able to put punchers together, counter, or beat Floyd to the punch.

Anyways, if we go by everything Marquez claims then remember he also said Floyd will easily beat manny.

 

no brainer. pac's a puncher floyd is not.

 

Floyd will force manny into a slow fight, neutralizing his speed and power. Floyd's excellent jabbing, timing, counters, and footwork will slow manny down.

manny is a great fighter, but he's very distance sensitive. He does his best work at mid range. Floyd is going to place his body and feet at the magical angles that leave manny extra vulnerable to counters when he decides to throw. manny is going to be forced to go off balance by lunging in just to try to hit Floyd. manny will get caught in the middle of trying to get his 1st or 2nd shot off, so we won't be seeing any usual amazing 4-5 punch combos.

 

Too bad this fight isn't happening this year..or maybe ever. quit trying to imagine the fight buddy..

 

why do you think that void wont sign the contract and instead is on a holiday resting his vag? Pac will catch him and catch him hard....

 

I remember manny was worried about Floyd's speed right after he watched Mayweather beat Mosley.:think There was a thread about it with a quote and article.

 

An ancient DLH gave Floyd fits when he roughed him up. Floyd has never been 'great' against non-stop aggressors with good chins. Manny has deceptive range and throws straight punches. My guess is Manny whacks floyd good and floyd counters well, until Manny catches him with a straight left and finishes what a 38 year old Mosely couldn't...

Floyd's scared too. If he's ducking Manny, I have to assume he doesn't like his own chances...

 

Everybody who has been in with both (Marquez, DLH, Castillo who sparred w/ Pacquiao) has said Manny is faster except Hatton, who hasn't commented one way or the other. Frankly, Hatton probably can't remember his fight with Manny anyway.

 

Thats why they wanted a fight straight away.....because he was worried. yeah..I remember Freddie Roach saying that : "Floyd doesnt have the legs anymore" He is going to be stationary infront of PAC and eat so much leather he wont know what a dog or a gorilla is.

 

lets be honest hatton aint the smartest man in the world [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDZFQCgsVw8[/ame] never stops making me laugh.

 

Watching from the Philippines, Pacquiao took special note of Mayweather’s speed. Quick himself, he said he will need to get even quicker to fight Mayweather.

There is'nt anything suprising about what JMM noted......

Its easy to believe that Marquez as a 126 and 130 pounder felt Pacquiao's punches more than he did Mayweather's.....
Things to note here is that Pacquiao wears punchers Reyes gloves and Mayweather to protect his own fragile hands, does'nt.
Also note that a heavier JMM takes a better shot, so this is not an instance of a 130 lbs Pacquiao punching harder than a 147 lbs Mayweather.

On the speed......I'm not convinced that Pac's faster than Mayweather, but I can very well see why Marquez would say Pac's faster, because he throws alot more punches......where Mayweather punches in one's and two's.

I would bet if you asked Marquez who got off better with the first shot, he'd say Mayweather.....its called quickness.
Imo, Mayweather is significantly quicker than is Pacquiao.
Its easier to anticipate speed than it is quickness.
