There's no room for "soft" here, really. If there is room for soft you will find me in the lounge with Freddy "KFC" Wak discussing 1344 Cadillac's and how to make them look 2009. I'm a fan of both fighters and have been for a very long time, Pacquiao is an all-time favorite of mine as much as Mayweather and I'm a fan who tends to lean towards reason rather than just blind support based on heart/who I cheer for. Even though I do **** up sometimes but hey, we're human beings not titans or gods. A good fight to remember of Mayweather struggling with a southpaw is Judah, the first three rounds Judah looked to be getting the better out of Mayweather and stunned him HARD in the third till Judah faded and ran out of gas because we all know Judah is a three round fighter. Imagine Judah but x2 and for 12 full rounds, this is no joke really even for an elite like Mayweather. Both are class A+ and when two A+ fighters collide it's not really easy to make a quick pick. Another bad(must admit) example is Sharmba Mitchell, even though Sharmba was tune-up material and Mayweather took him as one he still landed some flush shots which actually stunned Mayweather. A southpaw is a dangerous fighter and when the southpaw is Pacquiao you are FORCED to have second, third or even TEN thoughts. Just being reasonable, I've had Mayweather on my avatar before, Pacquiao, Roy Jones, Lacy and many other fighters. This has nothing to do with who I like, if it's a prediction based on who I like then I'll just wish no one wins as I like both way too much to wish for either to lose.
fact pacman has better resume than PBF a WAY better one at that and he is a southpaw pbf major weakness to me is South Paw fighters he is about to face one of if not the best soutpaw fighters in 100 years
They thinking PBF is unbeatable and i don't see it that way **** PAC moves his head more than anyone PBF ever faced Floyd resume is weak to me and it has always been WEAK to me PBF wont walk over pac will be the closest fight i ever seen i know it and it will need a rematch and thats IF floyd beats JMM
But again Scar you keep using the Judah fight as some sort of symbol that "proves" he has problem with Southpaws when all it was was a couple of under par rounds against a very talented fighter (regardless of his mental strength) , i don't subscribe to this notion that "Judah gassed", Floyd simply figured him out, if you wanna use the "gassed" excuse then we can use it for Cotto too who was getting caught time and time again with left hooks against Judah, Floyd simply adjusted and the rest is history, and like i said he didn't have half the problems with Judah as Pac did with Jmm, i haven't seen you mentioning anything about that :roll: , your logic is like saying "Floyd had problems with Castillo so that means he can't deal with pressure" it just doesn't add up imo.
If you wanna talk about "weaknesses" i take it you agree that Pacs main weakness is counter punchers then? because he was clearly outclassed against Jmm and Pac would be facing the best counter puncher of this generation (Mayweather) , oh and "resume" don't mean **** when one man has been beaten three times (and ko'd twice) and the other has never lost and hardly has a scratch on his face.,
what you said made zero sense he faced better fighters that's why he got losses and he lost when he was not polished you will see the truth soon watch how JMM gives floyd FITS watch how
Erm it made perfect sense actually :roll: , if you wanna talk about "Floyd hates southpaws" then we can talk about Pac having trouble with counter punchers such as Jmm, you can't talk about one thing and then totally ignore the other, that's just pure bias huggery , at the end of the day Floyd's got many more advantages than Manny, and i'm sure that would be evident when they finally get it on.
Floyd is perfect for 24/7 indeed. But don't forget about Uncle Roger! That guy is ****ing hilarious, Floyd Sr. is nowhere near as entertaining.
I keep using the Judah fight?, this is the first time I mentioned it and my words regarding his issues with southpaws came long ago when his father openly admitted that. I'm not saying that Mayweather's chances are completely out of the window, hell no, it's just that those are facts and serious ones he will have to deal with and overcome, that's how you accomplish greatness or in Mayweather's case remind people who he really is. Floyd did adjust and can, that's why he's A+, a fighter that can't adjust is a one-dimensional fighter and a one-dimensional fighter can't go as far as Mayweather has. You also have to remember that even though he dii adjust against Judah and figured him out slowly this also had a lot to do with Judah's proven poor stamina. Judah was and is a three round fighter, if you handle the early storm(we're talking two to three rounds at most) then he's in for the taking. Imagine Judah x10 and can go 10 rounds, that's Manny Pacquiao. It's just not an easy task and not an easy pick to make, I'll most likely be picking Mayweather to win but you never know till then. We can't base our prediction on how Mayweather performed against Hatton or DLH as this is a Mayweather coming off a 2 year lay-off, he could have gotten worse for all we care which is why he took another fight before immediately charging into Pacquiao.
