Manny has never faced a fighter with great elite hand speed.....ever

Yea, it's hilarious to accuse these guys who started out as fly and superfeather weights of never facing fast hands, especially when they were at those weights they were the fastest around.

 

Tim Bradley has a pretty quick jab when he uses it properly... Although he spent a lot of the time in the 2nd fight loading up on wide shots that Manny could see from far away.

 

Come May 2nd, Pac will be facing the best fighters that he's faced. Can't say the same for Floyd.

 

Could you make yourself come off as any bigger of a clown than you are now?


The world considers Floyd and Pac the two best of their generation and you have the stupidity to say you don't think Pac is the best he will face? Seriously? atsch:rofl

 

He's fought plenty.. He started at the lighter weights ffs. Ledwaba was the best in his division until Pacquiao dismantled him.

Recently though, He's only fought Bradley.
For comparison purposes though, who did Floyd fought recently who has better speed than Bradley? Canelo? Maidana? Ortiz? Cotto?


Floyd beats Pacquiao in my book but please don't spew out bull****.

 

Bradley is pretty fast for me.. but to be honest, fast hands are overrated.. you can't just rely on your fast hands with the level of Pac and Floyd.. you got to have timing and that's one aspect Floyd has advantage over Pacquiao....

 

He's a bit special.

 

Well, 8 years is a freaking long time and their "primes". Both fighters have slowed down by then. So, how either of them handled "elite" hand speed then probably won't be the same now since reflexes have slowed a little.

Just from watching the fight though, Judah didn't look faster than Mayweather.

Ohh, wait, so are you saying Judah is the most recent opponent? That was like a decade ago... o.o

 

FFs.pac has come up from flyweight they to welterweight.do u think he was fighting plodders in the lower classe ? Plus the fact he's fought ppl with good speed in the higher classes just not on a par with mayweather but not many are

 

He isnt. That's the truth.

 

JMM's hand speed is good. Bradley's hand speed is good. Cotto's hand speed is good. I wouldn't qualify any of them as on Floyd's level, but the gap isn't huge, and Floyd hasn't faced anyone with Pac's hand speed with the possible exception of Judah(who fades and doesn't flash that speed in combination). And between the two, in recent years I would say Pac has faced more quick-handed guys than Floyd.

 

Well then you should go and sign up in the ban thread. Put you money where you mouth is.

But I somehow doubt you got the ***** to do it

 

Floyd never faced a Fighter of the Decade fighter.

 

How fast was Morales?

 

Everybody under FW is fast on WW standards.
Then there's Khan during sparring.
Grandpa Mosley.
Bradley throws a quick jab. Pretty underrated too. He made both Pac and JMM eat tons of it.

That's pretty much it.
