    Manny is quick but Floyd has always had fast feet and great foot work and you have to realize that in boxing there are ways of controlling the range and making fighters over extend! Floyd has the height and reach advantage that he will use. Manny will shoot inside but Floyd has the reflexes and speed to shoot away from Manny and still be out of range that can keep him on the end of Manny's punches and keep Manny from throwing 5 to 6 punch combos. Floyd is the most accurate fighter of our era and damn near every fighter he has faced he has held them to their lowest connect % of their careers!

    "He didn't expect it, that's why he recover so quickly" :admin


    If I were you, I certainly would not be sticking by that comment, that's just plain ludicrous mate!

    It's the punches which you don't see coming that get you! Everyone knows this! And Pac didn't see that one coming, yet ate it up just the same - that's proof of an iron chin!! :good

    but i think that if manny catches mayweather with 1 good shot it will decompose mayweather because when an oppoent strikes at mayweather he always closes his eyes for a split second, this will be the perfect opportunity for manny to strike with another 4 or 5 shots

    Hey I think they all should be doing random testing! Name me a fighter that has tested positive for something before the fight? The Mosley fight got made quickly as well bc Mosley agreed to the test! Floyd is down for 50/50 split, gloves, ring size and all he asked for was one thing which Team Pacquiao will not agree to! Hopefully it gets made and most experts believe that Floyd will win a UD and that Manny has a punchers chance!

    Oh come on now, this is silly. If Floyd walked through a flush uppercut from a 165lbs man you'd be creaming all over your sofa. Whether Margo has the punching power of Bob Foster or whether he was tired by this point are not the issue, it is proof of an excellent chin for a 148lbs man to shake off a massive uppercut from a 165lbs man 'period'.

    yer, have you ever even watched mayweather fights closely? he doesnt always but does sometimes flinch and close his eyes for a second when he gets hit

    He took the shot but you fail to realize that power can be zapped from a fighter! The same punch that can hurt a fighter in round 1 or 3 can feel totally different in round 8 if that fighters power has been zapped. They both have great chins in my opinion but to say Manny's is better than Floyd's when Floyd has never been put on his ass hurt is crazy and you know it!

    The punches that you don't see coming are the ones that hurt the most, and it's clear Pacquiao didn't expect it. However, that doesn't mean that just because he didn't see it coming...that it is automatically a powerful shot, or that it is proof of Pacquiao's chin up at WW (like I pointed out, I was skeptical of his chin up at WW before the Margarito bout).

    It stopped him in his tracks more than anything. Cotto didn't put any great effort into that shot, it looked more like he was turning Pacquiao whilst making him walk onto a shot. Even if he had hurt Pacquiao there, which I believe he didn't, Pacquiao has great recuperating powers.

    Have you notice how Manny brings his right back low after he jabs? Have you notice how he has great foot speed but his foot work is not all that great and a fighter that can move can take advantage of those mistakes? Don't be surprised when Floyd boxes Manny and it looks like a typical Floyd Mayweather fight! Boxing lesson! It will look like the Mayweather vs Marquez fight but with Manny having some moments and winning 4 rounds!

    mayweather will be troubled by a south paw who throws multi-punch combos launched from unorthodox angles. floyd may be able to defend the first 2 maybe 3 punches but the succeeding punches will be the ones to hit him.

    You should explain this to boxers. Then they wouldn't need to bother defending themselves in the mid-late rounds of fights! :lol:


    I will outline the crux of this matter before I go:


    - Manny has been hit with clean, flush, big shots from Cotto and Margarito: NO EFFECTS WHATSOEVER

    - Floyd has been hit with clean, flush, big shots from Corley and Mosley: FLOYD GETS SPAGHETTI LEGS AND CLUTCHES ON FOR DEAR LIFE TO GET HIS LEGS AND SENSES BACK TOGETHER



    And that's the truth. Peace out :smoke
