    plzzz if floyd think pac is such an easy fight then he should have fought him back in march and not ask for special testing. Why go on a vacation all of a sudden after pac says yes to the 14 days testing?

    Funny how all of a sudden experts must be right since they picked floyd to win. Those so called experts also picked delahoya and hatton to beat pacquiao. :lol:

    More hating on ESB. Manny doesn't have the skill to beat Floyd . Only way he has a chance is by KO landing a big shot like Shane . In essence a lucky shot that Floyd happens to not see coming . Manny is only effective in exchanges . Floyd will teach Manny what boxing is and show him his eyes closed hail mary lefts have no effect. Floyd will be the fastest opponent Manny has ever seen plus smartest. His feints and counter punching will control the tempo of the fight and cause Manny to do something he's not good at which is think. Manny just throws . When thinking he'll have to 2nd guess and plan and try to decifer and anticipate what Floyd is doing . And last but not least Floyd will be a moving target. Manny is going to have hissy fits when Floyd doesn't exchange and moves around the ring. This fight is really over hyped. Its going to be yet another one sided victory and technical boxing match where only Floyd is going to be the only man participating once again . Manny is out of his element here just like Shane was. Fighters fight in rhythm . Read The Tao Of Jeet Kune Do by Bruce Lee. He explains perfectly how fighters are broken records repetitiously going on to the same beat over and over. Floyd doesn't have a rhythm for Manny to decifer . His style really depends on the style of his opponent . He pays attention and he adapts. Bruce Lee says be like water. He says water conforms to any container . Floyd is the best example of this.

    Manny doesn't have a chance in hell really. If theres such a thing as reincarnation, Floyd had Manny beat lives ago .

    I know he's just answering a reporter's question and giving out his point of view. But he's contradicting himself. Not too long ago he was telling the public Floyd is a mastermind outside the ring and it was part of his psychological tactic to break down his opponents before he gets into the ring. Don't flip flop back and forth, Oscar. Either that or just keep your mouth shut.

    Well if he is talking about recent events...then the 'Floyd is a mastermind' statement is completely different to the, 'Outside the ring is a whole other story' statement.

    A "good chance" so you are saying you would pick and bet on Pac winning this fight?

    hell yeah, pac is my favorite fighter today and i stop doubting him after he destroyed cotto. I now know he can handle the top dawgs at welterweight.

    Well you can guarantee that floyd is in the gym as we speak practicing new routines for manny which will only add more and confuse poochiao even more.

    You fanboys can discredit floyd all you want but pac cant shi on him.

    Great point, he should have fought him in March, and not asked the man to submit to drug testing that was above the high school sh!t currently being utilized. Yeah what a dumbass PBF is, I can't believe that he would ask Pac to submit to modern era random blood testing, obviously he didn't want the fight. Because who wouldn't allow their opponent to use performance enhancing drugs and gain an unfair advantage? Obviously very well thought out and intelligent post.

    Floyd need to take a timeout sign the contract then go back to the gym. He can trained all he wants as long as he signs that contract to fight pacquiao.

    Other than signing the fight Floyd has been in the gym the past couple of weeks.

    Another awesome point, because prior to the Pac fight Cotto hadn't had any trouble handling the "top dawgs at welterweight". So by beating Cotto who got punished by Margarito, got a questionable decision over Clottey, and close decision over SSM there's no doubt Cotto is the benchmark all other WW should be measured by. WOW! Oh and I will remember you said so, about Pac winning this fight and you'd be willing to bet on it. Good Day!

    floyd has step up to the plate 41 times and succeeded everytime, any man who is at floyd's level is would not be scared of anything. Was he scared when he fought a tough mosley who everyone viewed as a dangerous beast? Was he scared when he fought an undefeated ricky hatton who people compare to a bull? or DLH who knock out middleweights?
