What makes you think he can't? If you look at Paquiao's recent opponents they've all been slow with poor movement that just stood in front of him so he could fire off the punches, Cotto was the only one attempting to fight on the backfoot for a portion of their fight and you could see Pacquiao didn't look happy having to chase him around. This is how Mayweather will control the tempo of the fight, he will use a combination of good movement and the ability to judge distance to reduce Pacquiao's output while using his jab and counter punching ability to take advantage of Pacquiao's poor defense which will put rounds in the bag. People make too much of the second round of the Mosley fight, it was a great shot that knocked Floyd out of his comfort zone but he was never in trouble of being KO'd and he was back walking Shane down within a few seconds, if you look at him in his corner at the end of the second he's calm, breathing easy and taking in what happened to make sure Shane can't land that shot again, which he didn't.
Your logic seems to be that if Mayweather didn't fight them then he avoided them, do you apply that logic to every boxer?
So please explain moron with all of the viable opponents out there why Pac is choosing a verified cheater who got knocked out or a guy who he completely destroyed in a previous fight? I will tell you why, Pac is a fraud. FMJ will beat the brakes off of Pac. Pac knows it. That is why he won't sign this fight. lol:
Where do you come up with this ****? Easiest fight? Pac struggles with counter-punchers but it will be his easiest fight at 147?:rofl PBF has more advantages in this fight than Pac does and I dare you to debate me on it.:deal
Key word being top while everyone lands on Pac which is the main reason why Pac will lose. He won't be able to find PBF as easily as PBF will find him.
Why? PBF is the bigger and proven draw and deserves the bigger share. If anything it's the other way around because Pac hasn't passed boxing 101 negotiations and refuses to admit that PBF is the bigger draw and accept less, he's pricing himself out. PBF is doing what anyone who's the bigger draw would be doing and that's wanting the bigger share of the purse.:deal
above 140 pounds how many times have you seen Manny rocked? How did Cotto, Diaz, ODL, look against Manny? Hatton deal with Floyd for 75% of the fight. Hatton was blinded by speed in the first round and Manny switched to boxing and knocked him out with a beautiful counter in the 2nd round. 5 fights against Barrera and Morales. P4P #1 and fighter of the decade. Who's ducking who?
Moron, above 140 how many times have you seen Manny fight a guy who wasn't recently beaten to a pulp, weight drained, or KTFO? If Hatton is what you say he is why is he trying to beat on shot guys? There is a list a mile long of great fights at WW and LWW. Why won't he step up? :think Clottey rocked Pac and punched him at will.
Why do people say Floyd is a bigger draw. first of all he is American and last time I checked HBO (PPV) is an American company. American has the most access to cable and Floyd is American. World wide Manny is the most popular boxer and gaining more fans by the month. Before Manny fans were *******s now Manny won fighter of the decade and Floyd is ducking him. Looks worse for Floyd day by day.
Clottey rocked Pac ? Manny started his career at 107 lbs lol. Floyd got rocked in the second round against 40 year old Mosley in a tune up bout where he was a 4-1 favorite. Everyone knows Floyd is overrated. He can't touch Manny's speed, angles, excitement and willingness to fight in any fashion to get the job done. Floyd is a walking snooze fest who is too scared to fight dangerous fighters in their prime.
Where as Roach admitted he ducked putting Pacquiao in with Mosley because he was too good, work that one out.
Yes he did. Who cares where he started his career. Age and body type determine many things that mean nothing in the present. FMJ was the SAME weight at the same age. So why is Pac running the "he big. I small" crap? So can you explain why Pac was scared to fight Mosley? He is a "snooze fest" because YDKSAB. :deal
