    Don't start throwing the word "Scared" around when in a thread about FLOYD. :lol: It just opens re-hashes everything that Floyd has done this past year.:-(

    Floyd will bring the best out of Pac and vice versa but I don't see FLoyd improving. He's already shown signs of slowing down. Pac is still improving. Mother****er spars orthodox late in his career. LOL

    His pull counter is nice and usually very little u can come back with..ur jab already been thrown as he pullin back....the technique and timing is like no other ...with as many feints as floyd uses its perfect for handcuffing top fighters and makin it so fighters get scared to throw anything worth while (see mosley-mayweather)

    floyd is sharp as ever if you ask me...he had a nice outing and took 11/12 rounds over the next best thing at the time (other than manny pacquiao)...if anything manny look slower in the clottey fight...he's been in a lot more wars THAN FLOYD AND THATS WEAR AND TEAR...FLOYD HAS ALWAYS FOUGHT SAFTEY FIRST AND I THINK THE WEAR AND TEAR WILL EFFECT PAC MORE THAN FLOYD BY THE TIME THEY FIGHT NEXT YEAR

    Same here.

    The way he times his opponent before landing the shot and stepping away is just boxing skills at it's best.

    Pacquiao is way faster than Mosley? I'd say he's faster but not much in it.

    If anything Cotto is slower than all of the guys in the original video.

    Does anyone remember JUAN MANUEL countering emmanuel's str8 left hand with his left hook, and ERIK MORALES shooting the jab over the top of emmanuel's right hook?

    Very good point. Floyd def lost a step or two.
    When you throw the amount of punches Manny does and you don't come straight in like Hatton and use angles and have blinding speed you better have serious knockout power cause you ain't winning no decision against Manny.

    Manny has been able to transfer his speed from all the lower weight classes he fought at to 147. It is very hard and only the most supreme ATG's can do that. Look at Bradley and JMM when they went up over 140 like different fighters and they both could be good candidates to use PED's

    definitely the fastest & most accurate right lead/counter in boxing....

    its a dang shame he dont combo it up more often. He likes to pose too much after that 1 punch. Good chance he get his ass beat up by Pacquiao if he stays posing like that after throwing his one punch.
