    People think it's combinations that made JMM sucessful. It wasn't. Try timing. The repetitious pattern Pacquiao does will be picked up by Floyd very easily. He's does the same kindve dance that Ricky Hatton does. He just does it with the lead right hook. The only myth is Manny being this so called complicated fighter with crazy angles. He only sticks to the outside of his opponents left then lands sneaky left hands that are out of his opponents eyesight. If you make Manny front you and if you stay paticulary outside his right he really becomes highly less effective.

    I doubt it. His hands will prevent him from doing that IMO.

    He will settle for a good UD if it happens. Although something tells me that pac has actually have a better chance than most people give him based on the fact that floyd is showing some reluctance when it comes to facing him.

    Marquez traded with pac and fired of combinations. But had to kiss the canvass 4 times doing so. Mayweather is not durable or tough enough to stay in the pocket. And they are completely different type of counter punchers. Floyd counters with 1 shot marquez with combos. Potshots won't keep pacquiao off of floyd trust me.

    If they were both at their 130 pound prime, I have no doubt Floyd would KO Pacman's shaudy defense. At 147 or... 151 (haha), he'll have to show up and work for the victory.

    No, he can't. Floyd will be sent to sit on the canvas by a straight left hand. Marquez didn't do enough to beat Pacman in those 2 fights. He was sent to the floor 4 times totally.

    Are you talking about the first fight where Pacquiao knockdown Marquez three times?

    Or the second fight where Pacquiao knockdown Marquez again?

    Yeah he taught Pacman lesson. The lesson is you can't beat Pacquaio if you give him two extra points for knockdowns:lol:

    And Floyd better watch out. If Mosley could put him on ***** street. Then so could Pacqiao.

    Anyone who think that Floyd can easily beat Pacquiao is crazy! It's not gonna be easy for both fighters if they meet each other in the ring. Floyd and Pacquiao have the same hand speed but the former is bigger than the latter.

    Floyd doesnt have the confidence to fight and defeat pac. If he does, the two wouldve fought by now. Floyd knows he's in for a big trouble fighting pac. Pac has speed, stamina and power. Floyd only have speed.

    gee is that how you determine how a guy wins a fight?

    lets see....

    thomas hearns crushes roberto duran in 2 rounds

    iran barkley KOs Hearns in 3 rounds

    Iran Barkley vs Roberto Duran...hmmmmmmmm

    seems like Barkley should knock duran out in 1 round.....but oh no...duran wins fight as well as knocking barkley down a few times

    lets use your logic one more time

    if mayweather has ducked Cotto, Margarito, Paul Williams. a YOUNG Sugar Shane, not the nearly 39 year old version.....its safe to say.....he has and will continue to duck pacman

    :deal:deal :hi:

    Void should know Void better than anyone. Void knows that he will get knocked by Pac, so he runs, hides, lies, makes excuses, beats up women and children, etc.

    Marquez drained Pac like 15lbs both times. Same thing Floyd wants to do - blood drain Pac. :rofl:rofl

    This. Mayweather used to come forward, but I can't remember the last time he threw a combination. Even on the attack, his walking-down mode is just a series of 1-2's. Marquez is an aggressive counter puncher and the dynamic of that fight was completely different. People who claim Pac was drained need to shut the hell up, God forbid he meets his match in JMM despite accomplishing all he has in his career. It has little relation.

    It won't be easy for Pacquiao but he has the tools to beat Mayweather. A counter-right hand and accurate punch placement is stylistically bad for Pac, but an angling fleet-footed southpaw with hand speed, stamina, and power isn't exactly a walk in the park for Floyd. They have their work cut out for them.

    This is one of the reason they are accusing Pacquiao of using drugs. Floyd wasn't able to do it but Manny can? Manny must be on drugs.

    floyd is not a counterpuncher, he is another type of defensive fighter. If Pac works on his ability to cut off the ring against floyd, floyd will be done
