Im Still not full convinced that Mayweather beats Pacquiao...

Hey sunnn, how many times did you listen to "Sometimes When We Touch" Today?

 

The only way Manny beats Floyd is by a lucky punch he don't see coming, and Floyd having one of the best the defenses ever along with his ATG great chin, Manny doesn't really have a shot. After SM and JMM I question if Manny still has the heart for boxing thats needed at an elite level, not to mention his speed and stamina has greatly greatly depleted, but doesn't seemed to get mentioned here

The one thing I noticed though is that when Floyd fight Southpaws he tends duck under the punches, Floyd could duck right into a right hook, or an flailing uppercut Manny throw, that could change the fight. But as of right now Manny needs to worry about exorcising the JMM demon, if slow bulky, no power Marquez was able to hit him at will and have him flying across the ring, what would Floyd do who twice as fast and accurate as Marquez, bigger, longer reach, and has a true WW punch

 

emmanuel may have heart, but his patience is severely lacking

he gets frustrated very easily

 

:deal

And when Manny doesn't get his way, all his skill start to unravel layer by layer

 

The combination punching is irrelevant. Floyd is very accurate.

 

.... that's just normal, even Floyd himself feels the same way

 

Floyd is not Marquez!!!!

 

Some of the biggest factors in the fight IMO. He will be frustrated, lose his head in there, and be picked apart worse.

 

Those are valid points and you're right, the fight with JMM should not guarantee a loss for Pac if he fights Mayweather. I take an issue with point #1 though. Many people are saying combination punches are the only way to score points. I highly disagree. Many of Juan's landed punches on Pac came off 1-2 combo punches. Juan actually threw limited combo punches in the 3rd fight as opposed to the previous ones where he would fire off 4,5, possibly 6 shots per attack. Less shots per combo was a way to limit the chance of getting caught by a knockdown punch. A BIG myth people seem to ride on is Juan's style is the only one that is effective when fighting Pac. That's completely not true. Morales doesn't fight like JMM yet Erik still managed to outbox Pac in their 1st fight. Cotto also outboxed Pac for 1 or 2 rounds. Superior boxing skills is the key. There is more than one way to skin a cat.

 

didnt read . shut up.

 

Just remember: Benitez the defensive master outboxed Duran so easy like 13-2. Duran destroyed Davey Moore so easy in a few rounds, completely outboxing and destroying him. Davey Moore turned right around and KOed Benitez in two, easy work. Styles make fights. blah blah blah Benitez was shot at the time right after he beat Duran so easy, he clearly wasn't. Pac has a chance against Floyd, it's just clear that MOVEMENT does trouble him. Staying in the pocket with Pac is a really really bad idea. JMM NEVER takes one step forward when he fights Pac because he knows.

JMM's style will always be a problem for Pac, maybe he will be able to land on Floyd just because of the way the angles and offense works. Pac can't perfectly mimic JMM's natural style: he has his own style that Pac may or may not match up against well.
