    I still wonder if floyd can deal with Manny's output. Floyd never delt with a guy with his workrate and Manny won't stop coming.

    PAC is faster, especially at this point in there careers. Floyd is not a fast as he was at 130

    Yes, he has. Look at Floyd's fight with Jesus Chavez.

    Mayweather wont be trying to walk Pacquiao down like the previous 4 guys tried tho so Pac wont be able to use all his best tools effectively like in those fights + he`ll be punished for every mistake by accurate, crisp punches from rd 1-12, FMJ wont tire & wont take the sort of damage throughout to slow him down.

    Pacquiao will be made to lead & most of all BOX, he will TRY to get Floyd to engage in firefights but it wont happen.... if the fight ever happens (which Ive given up hope on tbh) I`ll take a bet with anybody on this forum regarding who will win.

    Mayweather UD all day long & it wont be that debateable either.

    Young Mayweather will go to the body to slow down the quick footed emmanuel. The guy in your avatar had great success in their first fight in the 2nd or 3rd round with well place right hands to the belly. emmanuel with all of his relentless aggression couldn't help but back off and retreat to the ropes, whenever Morales bodyshot him in that round.

    IMO pacs best chance is to be aggresive throughtout and pepper him with light combos which will force floyd to adapt and take risks, but if that doesent happen i agree floyd ud

    I have to say Pacquiao has the quickest hands.. Mayweather is fast but what helps him is his arm length.. most fighters think Mayweather is to far when fighting and suddently BAM!!

    Floyd's footspeed is the equivalent to spidermans spider sense. He darts backwards I believe as fast as Manny's punches. You can watch both JMM and Shane fights as proof. After the 2nd round Floyd easily avoided Shanes overhand right the rest of the fight. And quite frankly its really not about speed with Floyd . The man feels what's coming his way and responds. Its really sick like. He has an extra sense other humans havent found out how to use. Manny does have combination speed over Floyd though. But what goog would that be when your opponent doesn't exchange with you.

    I get your idea but when Manny hits people strange things happen with them. If can nail Floyd like Mosley did he can actually take him down and after that who knows. The Mosley fight proved to me that Floyd is a great fighter but at WW his punch resistance is ordinary. Anyway we are loosing time for a fight that ain't gonna happen

    Thats funny to me. The man takes a right hand straight from out of hell right on his chin and not even a minute later gets caught in the temple and still doesn't go down. If thats not punch resistance I don't know what is.

    This theory would have been relevant 5 years ago but Pacquiao has improved his body conditioning significantly since then. At WW I don't see him getting hurt by belly pokes. Cotto ravished his body and Pacquiao just kept asking for more. That freaked out Roger big style which led to the A-Side meth accusations.

    but Pac isn't anywhere near as fast as he was at 122 and 126. Not even half.
