    Jmm does it in spurts but he never goes full out he did do it once in the first round of the first fight and we saw what happen there.

    Is it possible to walk Pac down from the start of the fight and go straight forward against him?

    no Pacquiao will eat you alive if you try that.Pacquiao dominates fighters who come straight forward like rios and margarito.

    Not wise, Manny keeps changing his feet to awkward attack angles at speed and lets punches go in bunches on your way in, at speed.. and his feints are so good that perpetual motion is almost impossible anyway..

    Maybe Floyd will look at pac and see how small he is (or believe the hype) and underestimate him and think he can go straight forward

    mayweather will be right in punching distance all fight putting pressure on pacman mentally and physically i can promise you this. pacman does not only have the skills but lacks the phycial ability to close the distance. in this fight you will have mayweather in punching distance but pacquiao not able to close the gap. mayweather will be able to land every single offensive punch in this one. pacquiao zero.

    this fight is ending in a stoppage rounds 7-10 it's a mismatch very easy to see.

    morales was pushing him back in the first fight a **** load, but that was how many years ago?

    Yea morales did it more because of a reaction to fend pac of him I have yet to see anyone go full out forward against him(I think only margo did it and hatton) I remember Bradley saying if you go straight for him you no chance.

    The guy who had success against the Pacman, JMM, did so with constant lateral clockwise movement, pivoting away from the Pac left hand out of danger.. FMJ tends to go straight back and straight forward a lot, anchoring his backfoot to roll his shoulder or retreating in a straight line and led against the ropes within three steps..! Boxing is a styles game, Duran beat Leonard who knocked out Hearns and Hearns knocked out Duran.. Hagler beat Duran on points who beat Leonard on points but Hagler lost to Leonard on points.. you get the idea.. JMM was too undersized and lacked the forward motions, offensive feints and leads to stand much prayer against FMJ.. Pacman is different matter entirely, stylistically.

    that fight was extremely close no matter what hbo tries to say

    bradley literally jabbed and ran all fight

    and marquez was how old?

    you saw how easily mayweather toyed with marquez right?

    that's the diffrent type of level mayweather is on.

    I believe Pac is faster than FMJ, and we know southpaw speed (Zab) is an issue for FMJ to adapt to !

    ok let me follow you're logic for one sec

    alexander beats maidana easy but Floyd fights maidana later and struggles with him does that mean alexander is better than mayweather?

    Yeh it's fool proof logic! The Marquez Bradley fight wasn't that close either.
