Backpeddling? Pac-Cotto : Pac-PBF

Too drunk to discuss.... Burp!

 

I actually thought that Pac found it very difficult to catch the backpeddling Cotto and finish him off, this makes me think he will find it much more difficult to catch a mayweather that's on his bike. Unless Mayweather trades or gets trapped I still (unforunately) see a M victory

 

I still see vital flaws in Pacmans style.

He is controlled and calm, but still has a wild streak.

Defenceless against a good jab.

I noticed Pacman not following his game plan after receiving some hard accurate jabs, I expect the same if he fights PBF, possibly worse.

I dont see Pac beating Floyd. Floyd is just as fast, longer reach, more accurate puncher, better counter puncher, defence is just too brilliant, will keep his cool the entire fight and most importantly, he is smarter.

My prediction: PBF UD. PBF will counter and potshot manny to death.

 

Cotto was just trying to survive later in the fight, yes. I mean, he was trying to win rounds, but the principal goal was to avoid exchanges.

Pac let him hang around for a few rounds then went for the kill in the 12th. Reminded me of Calzaghe-Jones.

Cotto's style in the second half of the fight was similar to what he did for the last 4 rounds against Mosley.

 

At times Cotto was outboxing Pac and making him miss. I believe this is a glimpse of what will happen should he fight Mayweather.

 

Agreed. There was one time where Pac lunged really badly and I thought "that will get him check-hooked against PBF." And PBF has 5" more of reach than Cotto. And is faster.

 

Floyd is a fighter first off. Pac WILL tag him , and when that happens he will fight back. Floyd has been blessed to fight against guys who couldn't exploit this. They will catch each other; NO BULL****. When that happens the better man will win.

 

So what you are saying is PBF will be lured into a brawl and go off his game plan? You are joking right?

Floyd sticks to a gameplan like flies on ****, he is NEVER lured into a brawl.

 

Floyd would loose a decision backpeddaling all night like that, he has throw punches at some point and thats where Pac will catch him.

 

Why? Floyd is just as quick & sharp at landing and moving, plus he's got a 5" reach advantage and arguably a better estimate & understanding of range. He's more than capable of boxing off the back foot for periods.

 

Floyd Mayweather has quicker defensive reflexes than Pacquiao, he does not throw punches as quickly.

 

In any case, Floyd doesn't move his body like he should anymore; he relies on head movement much too much. That's suicide against a fast, unpredictable and powerful combination puncher like Pacquiao.
