After the Cotto-Floyd fight, this guy is convinced that Pacman will destroy Floyd. He makes some valid points about Pacquiao being able to do anything that Cotto did, only ten times better. Do you agree with him? [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n00gE73j5vc[/ame]
What people are missing is that Floyd can do everything to please people but still not get any respect. He sticks and moves then he's called a runner. He doesn't allow people to pin him in corners and he's boring. He fights defensively and people call him a chicken. He stands and tries to trade with Mosley he's lost his legs. He goes toe to toe with Cotto, beats him at his own game and a smaller Manny Pacquiao who has no inside game, and a shitty defense compared to Cotto....and all of a sudden Pac beats him? Too much Cinco De Mayo drinks
Didn't watch but I will say Floyd has different dimensions to his game. He can fight aggressive, defensive, off the front foot, inside, and/or off the back foot. Manny is only a come forward fighter limited to mid range but its been impressive he's risen so far despite that. Don't get me wrong he's still tailor made although styles make fights but Floyd fought a more determined and prepared Cotto no question. Guys saying "Pacquiao will beat him! He's a hypejob!" don't bring any kind of reasoning like I just did and continue to do. Need to worry about Bradley as he's no walkover and I look forward to that fight. Not nearly as much as I did watching Cotto/Mayweather but as Mayweather first needed to focus on Cotto, Pacq needs to keep his eyes on the task at hand which is Bradley.
Can't be ****ed with 23 minutes of that. Pac wouldn't be able to replicate the things that Cotto was doing. Completely different fight.
Right. Pacquiao wouldn't try to bully Floyd, make him back up with the jab, rip his body, and can't infight to save his life. All traits Cotto did. Pacquiao jus cant replicate these and I still say it's Floyd's easiest fight. Too reckless, too impatient. You have to be focused like Cotto was yesterday and even then he didn't get the job done credit to Floyd fighting brilliantly.
