    Pac is a sucker for the right hand in 4 fights with JMM he didn't stop JMM from landing it what makes you think he's going to stop PBF's, who's even more accurate?:deal Sounds like more wishful thinking to be honest.

    You honestly think Floyd can fight his usual fight and not get away with it against Pac?

    No one can dominate Pac he will be in a fight:yep

    PBF is more versatile than Pac. Pac can really only fight PBF one way that's go all out. He can't box with PBF. Pac is a sucker for right hands always has and always will be he never made the adjustment against JMM he couldn't take it away. PBF can and will make adjustments, he will take away Pac's straight left hand and without it Pac will be lost, following PBF around the ring not cutting it off and getting picked apart in the process by the late rounds PBF will start walking Pac down and outclassing him.:deal Pac will start to get frustrated and more reckless he might get busted up or even cut.

    Mayweather will not have a easy fight if he thinks he can get 1 or 2 shots and move than he is mistaken because Pac will get him against the ropes landing shots.

    Mayweather will be in a fight and he himself knows this Pac is very fast and hits very hard also what will be the difference is Pac's intensity.

    Pac will come out strong and once he sees Mayweathers movements he will time him with the left hand coming in

    Yep. You have never seen PBF get hit with the same punch over and over again with exception of a good jab. He doesn't, he adjusts and takes it away. Pac's inabilility to prevent from getting hit with right hands and take away that hand will be his downfall. I mean for ****s sake he fought JMM 4 times and still got hit by the same punch over the course of 4 fights, never making a single adjustment with the last being knocked out by it.:-( He relies on instict instead of thinking, this is chess not checkers he just doesn't have the boxing brain of a PBF and that's fine against lesser talent but in this fight it will cost him dearly because he's in with a grand master.:deal

    He was hit over and over again by Maidana's awkward overhand right until really, really late in the first fight.

    Pac will show Mayweather the same respect he had against Dela Hoya. To me the Dela Hoya fight was the only fight he really respected the person's skill and took his time with each attack. He will try to do the same against Mayweather. People will mention JMM but he went more toe to toe with JMM.

    I disagree most of those shots were ducked or didn't land clean, mostly to the back of the head and shoulders. Also in the rematch Maidana didn't have much success at all landing it.

    That's why I said first fight, not rematch. And he did. It was his most successful punch. There was even a brilliant Slow mo of the right hand bouncing straight off his head.

    Mayweathers preparation tells us that he's focused on timing and and power and size. He will fight a Hopkins fights but with more offensive output. He will try to disrupt Pac's rythym by muscling/holding and hitting on the inside. It's actually the right game plan and Floyds only real shot of winning I feel. The problem is, Pac is not so easily deterred, rarely if ever loses hope or determination and keeps trying. A single pot shot left jab to the body or straight right isn't enough to keep Pac off. Mayweather knows this.

    The other problem is, Manny is underrated fighting at close distances. Mayweather will probably hit and hold, hit on the break, sneak the straight right, hold, repeat. He will also probably mix a few inside uppercuts in there too. I don't think that will be enough though.

    Floyd will not fight much of this fight on the outside. Pac's legs and his ability to negate reach will prompt Floyd to get in close ASAP.

    Floyds left hook from the outside and right hook in close might be the surprise weapons in this fight if I were to guess.

    Mannys right hook might land more than we think. Floyd will be so damn cautious of the left hand, roach will be drilling Pac on the right.
