Even though I don't agree with most of the main thread. I can at least respect it as its better then the usually conspiracy theory's or stupid petty crap that gets posted up. Pac has been placed in with guys with no footwork and cement feet. From DLH to Hatton to Cotto to Clottey and now Margo. None of these guys have the movement to escape Pac's punching zone as he charges in while setting up counters. The best was Cotto and he is average at best. Marquez did it beautifully and he doesn't even have great athletic ability but did it with smarts and timing. Mayweather has athletic ability as well as smarts and timing. Not to mention Mayweather also has much bigger reach then Marquez. So not only does Mayweather have the legs, IQ, and timing to give Pac hell, he also has the reach to hit him out of Pac's punch range while Marquez didn't have that luxury. Pac is going to have to come to Mayweather's punch range every time in order to hit him. Mayweather doesn't have to be in Pac's punch range to hit him. Mayweather can use his footwork and timing to continually slip Pac's punch range forcing him to extent himself just like Marquez did to him with less reach while landing some counter bombs. Roach is praying that Mayweather lost his legs. example: This content is protected see how Marquez keep his hand in Manny's face as he entered to stop him from being able to go to the head as well as used his legs to extend Pac, escape then landed 2 nice shots on the counter. Mayweather has a big reach advantage and he can do that all day as Pac comes in. Of course it only works if Mayweather is at a decent distance already.
Mayweather outboxes Pac and makes him look amateur. Marquez kept center ring and used his ability as a counterpuncher to outbox Manny for 11 rounds.... Mayweather is 10x the counter puncher of Marquez and P4P hits harder too... Manny will think twice about throwing flurries after he takes a couple of counter rights like Mosley took
Different styles of counterpunching. JMM isnt afraid to get hit to land his own in thus disrupting Pac's combination. PBF will try to completely avoid all punches or land when he knows he's not going to get hit doing it. This could be a bad move as it maybe nearly impossible to avoid all incoming punches, thus Pac may end up putting Floyd in a shell, afraid to unload as he never gets the opportunity for a risk free potshot.
Shanes faster then pac at 40 years old atsch go back to bed. Pac would make a fool of that chinless *****.
Alright, and you will leave the forum after Floyd makes your hero look stupid. The bet is on. Don't act like it never happened come game time. - LEON
I think Mayweather showed against mosley he isn't adverse to going into the trenches and taking it to the bigger puncher. I just see Mayweathers all around defensive game and speed of counter punching nullifying Pacmans whirlwind style at which point the fight then becomes a boxing match and there's only going to be one winner out of the 2 when that happens and it's not the little Phillipino
Neither will Mayweather's tbf and I don't see Pacquiao being better in his prime either. Any version of Mayweather would have been favourite to beat Pacquiao between 130 to 147.
Thank you :good Again, Mr. TS, please revise your definition of 'expose'. There's nothing to expose in a great champion like Floyd. You probably think Ali was EXPOSED by Frazier don't you?
:rofl:rofl Calling the most complete fighter in the game one dimensional, that's rich coming from a *******.
