I really feel Floyd could get the stoppage

anything is possible but judging from his past record, unlikely. Pacquiao has a strong chin and Floyd hasn't shown much power in many years. Maidana had no defense and Floyd not only didm;t KO him, he never even hurt him in two fights! Maidana was hurt by Khan and others in the past... he never felt Floyd's punches.

anything is possible though

 

I doubt it

 

I think there's a higher possibility of him KOing Pac than his last 7 or so opponents. Pacquiao is the smallest opponent since Hatton and he wore him down. All of his other opponents were bigger and could take more punishment because of it. I doubt it, but it's a higher possibility than his latest opponents.

 

Corrected for you.

 

Ortiz woulda quit later in the fight

you're probably right

 

Agreed. I don't think Floyd is willing to put his hands on the line.

 

I could see Floyd stopping him too. Manny jumps in a lot, and although Floyd is not a huge puncher, Manny will add to the force of his punches by moving into them (specifically the right hand) I will not be shocked to see a Floyd KO.

 

Maybe a TKO due to a cut from a punch...

 

floyd is garbage, no way hes getting a stoppage

 

Really doubtful

Mayweather said he was going for the KO against Maidana and fell short

His hands are too brittle to KO any decently durable fighters

 

Yea because 1 KO in the last 10 years lends credibility to this thread

:rofl:nut

 

I don't think he will get a stoppage but I don't think hes gonna run like he did with some big guys he fought...pacman doesn't fight in the clinch and this is gonna be his downfall

maidana gave trouble because hes good in the clinch :bbb
also maidana right hand come from high to low wich his big trouble for Floyd but ALL pacquiao punches come from low to high this is perfect for Floyd he just need to lean back a little and pac short arm will miss mark my word :good

 

I think Floyd will rock Pac with a similar punch to JMM. Floyd gains more leverage and momentum - whether he has that power coming through is anyone's guess. JMM wasn't known as an overly big puncher leading into that KO. The only twist to this is that Freddie Roach could be training Pac to catch Floyd the moment he comes in - which could just as easily result in a knock down or knock out of Floyd. I wonder what the odds would be of both fighters scoring knock downs at the exact same time - with their staight power shots down the middle? Pac would have to loop the left a little, but it is possible - that is often his natural arc.

 

Mayweather doesn't commit enough to his punches to score a KO. Even if he does end up dropping or hurting Pacquiao, he's going to stay calm and keep doing his thing without the need to get overexcited. That's his style of fighting.
