    If Pac adopted the LaMotta style that LaMotta used against Sugar Ray against Floyed does he definitely beat $May?

    And that is burrowing in at the body for the 1st rounds in the LaMotta style to break em down.

    That style got one to the top 3 fighters of all time - Armstrong.

    No, but I still think Pacquiao can't use that against May because of the size differences.

    You can't use that style on a moving body. Only with toe to toe fighters.

    :lol: No.

    Pacquiao's best chance is to use Pacquiao style...and even then he doesn't have a great chance IMO.

    he will use his own style. no big deal. void won't hurt him, mayweathers knew it thats why they use all excuses in the world they can make including void be in jail just to avoid fighting pac. they knew that void dont stand any chance to defeat pac at this moment of his fading career. his fist is brittle and he is slowing down and he's mentally disturbed and surely is on drugs like sr and his uncle. he will be massacred one they meet inside the ring and he'l be worth nothing, that's they are scared of.

    pac's style is good enough to beat floyd. he doesnt have to change anything. all he needs to study is floyds lead left hook and time it with a left counter cross.

    No. He's not adept enough at getting inside to do significant damage to the body so consistently. He's a midrange fighter and will fight like one like he always has been.

    Pac's greater than Lamotta! He dont need to borrow a style! All we need is for Floyd to find his balls!

    Pressure fighters don't automatically beat speed guys, the two styles are just diametrically opposed.

    Floyd is one of the best defensive boxers of all time and as adaptable and smart as Manny is; he can't instantly master a new style. If he tried we'd be treated to another Mayweather-Baldomir debacle.

    You think Pacquiao can hurt Floyd with a single shot? :blood
