    :smoke exactly...Manny fights the same way in every fight and when he is required to adjust he doesnt....Morales beat him, and he has never clearly beaten Marquez who doesnt have the defense or speed of Money May...Many isnt great adapting and ad******g on the fly we all see that

    With margo, eventually you have to hurt a guy to keep him from crowding you or run. Obviously floyd wouldn't win a pushing match with him, so I think he would have to run the whole fight. With pac( another great poster pointed this out) marquez troubles pac with his lateral movement and footwork in general. Floyd stays stationary in the pocket and relies on his philly shell and shoulder roll to avoid shots when fighters throw multiple punches. I can see him spending most of the night in this shell waiting for single counters and pac winning on points based on aggression and activity.

    Judah lost because he doesn't have the mental stability to compete with great fighters. This has been proven over and over again.

    no matter the weight or points in their careers, Floyd beats the brakes off of Pac. and get tired? this mofo NEVER gets tired in the ring. He surely won't have the power to KD margacheato, but he's got enough pop to deter him from rushing in with reckless abandon

    Marquez didnt trouble him with lateral movement...Marquez moves less laterally than Mayweather does...what he did was time him flailing and missing and hit him with cleaner shots like Mayweather will do...When Mayweather has to he will use his legs like he did against Ortiz, Mosley, and Marquez....whats the point of throwing multiple punches and not landing uness Lederman is judging the fight then he is definitely screwed...Do you actually think Mayweather will sit there on the inside and wait for Manny to stop throwing? he will throw with him because of his leaky defense, Also when floyd fights southpaws he varies his defense...Manny doesnt know how to adjust Floyd does

    Margarito before he lost to Mosley wasnt being hurt but still lost several times...Mayweather is better than everyone who has beat him, It doesnt matter how hard a guy hits when you miss and they make you pay...Also size and stamina and a chin is nice but when you are not landing clean you will lose no matter if you get hurt or not, Whitaker...Locche....Mayweather...Pep and others have proven that hit and not get hit wins fights not swing ing at air
