Ya know, whilst I can see your point.....I won't be at all surprised to see it happen. However, I'll be equally unsurprised to see Pacman on his back too. That's the joy of this fight, it really is that open in my opinion. Pac could KO Floyd. I have no doubts about it. Floyd could make Pac look stupid, I have no doubt about that. It'll all come down to who wants it most.
No way you can KO one of the greatest defensive fighters of all time throwing the same punches, although with speed, over and over. NO WAY
:rofl A lot easier to take a punch when you are braced for it and the guy is coming straight at you. Its a lot harder to take a counter punch that you dont see... Did you forget that Mayweather is a counter puncher. Did you see Marquez make Pac look like a bobble head. Cotto came straight at Manny and he hit him while Manny was braced protecting himself. He landed maybe 1 or 2 shots that caught Pac off guard or where counters. Big ass difference. You think Pac is the only one that can punch from angles.
I seen Floyd knock out Hatton and Corrales with a left hook counter. So ... it has been done against top level comp. :rofl
Corrales fight was at lower weights where he had more power and May was bigger than Hatton and his defense was ****... I dont see Pac getting KO IMO.
The two biggest shots Cotto landed were counters that pacquaio didn't see , you're right . They barely effectEd PAC .... I don't see mayweather hurting PAC bad , if anything he'll keep him just at bay . The pacquaio who fought Marquez two years ago is alot different as well . He continues to get better , and stronger .. Just look at pacmans calves when he last fought Marquez and how they looked against cotto . Ariza's physical training focuses on lower body strength ... They are doing the same thing with Khan
Wow, you actually envisioned something I had thought about, how Floyd likes to duck under alot and how Pac delivered that blow to Lucero- and Eric Morales also in that first knockdown.
Floyd was a beast at lower weight but apparently lost his power at WW as his hands became brittle. The Hatton KO was helped a lot by the ring post. I can't see Floyd KOing Pac but I can't see Pac winning over Floyd in any way but a devastating KO!
actually, in the first and third rounds there are many times that Cotto stops Pac in his tracks with punches that don't even seem to land clean. For the most part in those rounds you could tell Cotto's strength was playing its part. But then after the knockdowns Cotto lost alot of power in his punches.
