    Oh, now I know what you meant.

    Still, many argue that Mayweather managed to win some of those first 4-5 rounds, meaning even when Judah was 'on his game' as you put it. One of the judges thought he won 3 of the first 4, and another that he won at least 2 of the first 5.

    That means that he dealt with Judah pretty good.

    Again, sounds ****ing awfully familiar. When the same strategy was done by your hated fighter you call it poor performance. :huh :patsch

    Pac is going to cracked and will that expression as if he's thoroughly enjoying it as he relentlessly, maniacally attacks Floyd from every conceivable angle, slipping in and out, whirling around.

    Floyd has significant physical advantages in this bout. I feel that he just has to come forward keeping Manny at the end of his jab, forcing Manny to his left (which he circles to anyway) right into the bullseye of his terrific right hand. Manny is a terrific fighter with tremendous speed and endurance, but he is simply too small. Floyd is basically a technically perfect fighter who uses every inch of his reach and often fights bigger than he actually is. That's a tremendous gap that Manny has to make up without eating some serious leather on his way in. He's going to have to absolutely sell-out to get inside to not only attemp to get the K.O., but make the bout competitive.

    I think Manny's way of throwing punches defeats floyds shoulder roll defense. When Floyd leans back and down Manny will just step to the side and land the right and left hands. I think Manny;s great footwork and his ability to use angles will defeat Floyds defenses. What Manny has begun to do to get around his opponents defense is he will step to either side and hit from that angle. With Clottey's clamshell defense he would step to the side( clottey's only opeing to the body) and bang Clottey to the body. With Cotto he stepped to the side and landed upercuts, left hands. Just beautiful how he does it

    Same way he did Marquez.. Or did he just sprawl backwards dazed and confused. B/c he was getting hit with shots he dont see coming. Floyd is an artist and Pac plays with finger paint. He is done. Its a wrap. He wont take the fight b/c he is and has always been a clown.

    LOL..WELL FIRST OFF THE FOOT SPEED WOULD BE EASY...TECHNICALLY FLOYDS FOOTWORK IS ALOT MORE ON PAR THAN PAC'S..FLOYD WILL CONTROL THE TEMPO OF THE FIGHT WITH HIS FOOTWORK...ANYBODY WHOM HAS EVER BOXED KNOWS WHAT I MEAN...

    AS FOR THE AWKWARDNESS HE'LL HAVE TO KEEP HIS GUARD UP AND HEAD MOVING....BASICALLY JUST BOX...

    TECHNICALLY THIS FIGHT WONT BE A PROBLEM FOR FLOYD....FLOYD IS "TECHNICALLY" SUPERIOR IN EVERY SPOT..

    PHYSICALLY IT WILL BE VERY TOUGH THOUGH..MAYBE THE "TOUGHEST" PHYSICAL FIGHT OF FLOYDS CAREER..BUT TECHNICALLY IT ISNT EVEN CLOSE...UR TALKING ABOUT A FIGHTER WHO RUNS DRILLS IN CAMP ON HOW TO "TECHNICALLY" FIGHT HURT...:deal

    FLOYD WILL USE HIS FOOTWORK ALL NIGHT TO KEEP THIS FIGHT A BOXING MATCH...I THINK HE CAN CONFUSE MANNY BY PRESSING THE ATTACK AT TIMES AND BOXING AROUND THE RING AT TIMES..NEVER THOUGHT HE WOULD BE ABLE TO "PRESS" MOSLEY REGARDLESS OF AGE...SHANE WAS THE BIGGER MAN AT THE SHOULDERS......MANNY-MAYWEATHER IS NOT A TECHNICAL MISMATCH BUT CERTAINLY CLOSE TO ONE IF FLOYD TURNS IT INTO A "CHESS MATCH"...SHOULDNT BE HARD TO DO WITH THE GOOD FOOTWORK FLOYD HAS:good

    The volume of punches coming at Floyd will be the problem. Thats why he wants the drug tests. He doesn't think anyone should have the energy to throw that many punches...

    YOUR VERY RIGHT IF PAC CAN "FIGHT" FLOYD..THATS THE PROBLEM..u need the footwork to control the "tempo of the fight"...Pac dont have that type of technical skill in comparison with Floyds footwork..

    Pacq is in and out....in and out... The rolling of the shoulders is good for someone who will stand in front of you and trade. Combinations will be coming from pac too. When Mosley put his punches together is when Floyd got his bell rung a little......

    Pac actually looked completely frustrated with Clottey precisely because he couldn't get around his guard. He did very little other than continue to throw punches for 12 rounds at Clottey's gloves. He went to the body some but utilized very little movement to circle Clottey and create opening on the side.

    Possibly the worst fight you could have picked to demonstrate Pac's ability to create openings.

    In any case, Floyd isn't Cotto or Clottey. He's not rooted in place and he can pick the style of defense that suits the situation. Did you notice him going into a high guard after Mosley caught him with the right?

    It's ridiculous that people spend so much time trying to work out a strategy to beat the philly shell and all Floyd has to do is put that left hand up and you've just wasted a whole ****load of time and are back at square one.

    he chose not to move around alot, dude can move just as well as he ever did. Floyd will knock pac out before the 11th round, or freddie will stop it, either way floyd kicks his ass:hi:
