If you look at their history, they have weighed around the same through their career. Mayweather got a little bit quicker up at the beginning, and Pacquaio used a little bit longer to get at the same weight. Might be because of where they come from, when it comes to what they eat. But otherwise, it's pretty similar. Also Pacquaio got a good coach a little bit later?
Sven Ottke was 34 and 0, I guess that makes him an ATG eh? As for the rest, you only have to look at Pac's and Floyd's opponents faces, and their respective records against mutual opponents to see who is the more offensively dangerous of the two overall. I'm not saying Pac wins and I would favour Floyd heavily at this point, but making out Floyd is some kind of boxing God based on his cherry-picking and brash persona is as much of a mistake as picking Pac because he is the more spectacular of the two. If Floyd was confident he had the tools to beat Pac he wouldn't have put obstacles in the way of them fighting years ago. No-one who is genuinely so confident turns down tens of millions of dollars and a place in boxing immortality. It simply doesn't compute.
As cocky as Floyd is, i'm sure he'll figure out a way to move away from Manny's left hand once he gets hit by it multiple times.
I'm no huge fan of Mayweather, but you can spin that and say the same about Manny.. Why would he turn down tens of millions of dollars and a place in boxing immortality if he we're so confident he could pass the olympic style tests and still beat Mayweather?
He'll adjust, but even when he was destroying Judah, I always noticed that he just gets popped consistently with it no matter what. He's got a good chin though, so it didn't help Judah much as his body started to cave. It always seem like fighters can adjust with "common sense" in the ring, but fighters fight out of comfort zones when in the zone actually engaging in combat. He should have figured the right plane of movement out earlier during the Judah and Oscar fights, and instinctively regained the center against Ortiz. Again, he's great and he dominated large stretches of those fights, but I'm just saying don't overestimate fighters' abilities to adjust in ways that lie outside of their stylistic comfort zones right away.
Why don't you Manny fans just quit? Team Pac is a nail away from being coffined and buried. Don't take fads so seriously.
This is typical US stupidity ! The nation has a population which only 40% hold passports. What does that mean? They know **** all about the rest of the world.
When did that happened? Judah landed it a couple times, but by no means did he landed it at a consistent basis for the whole fight.
Dam, I thought you went to sleep, I know I did but check this out, you done got off topic with Sven Ottke, he aint no Floyd Mayweather. I dont care about who Pac beat, The question was, prove me wrong when I say that Mayweather is bigger,stronger and an all around better fighter than Pac, and thats why hes gonna beat Pacs ass. Pac has never outboxed anybody in his life. Pac is one dimensional. Mayweather has many dimensions and has put them on display. Mayweather has always been confident of tools,42 and O testifies to that. The man has a predator mentallity and Pac was at the bottom of his kill list. I think that Pac will be his swan song and thats why he took the time to study his weakneses and let him simmer in the pot. The millions aint went no where, as a matter of fact the pot has gotten bigger. Now Mayweather is ready to shut all the haters up and tax that ass. What is Pac gon do? As far as immortality, hes already got that.:bbb:bbb
