Manny has better footwork than Floyd. Manny's footwork will offset Floyd's jab, so Manny negates Floyd's jab. Pac springs into his feet while unleashing his combos, next thing Floyd will know is that Pac is already at his midrange/or at the inside, where Floyd's jab is at its weakest. Then as Floyd gets to his right counter, Manny is already stepping out to his right. Manny doesnt need to cut on the ring to use assault Mayweather. Unless you want Manny to cut in the ring whel Floyd's on his bicycle, then that's the time we have a problem. Floyd should be the one cutting in Manny so that Manny will have no time to use his footwork. As Manny springs with his left lead, Floyd should veer to his left side.
You honestly think Manny has better foot work than Floyd? If that is the case then why the hell does he get off balance a lot? You say Manny does not need to cut off the ring against Mayweather? Well what the hell do you think he needs to do if Floyd fights off the back foot and uses movement against Manny?
Manny really has u all fooled. He was carrying Mosley all night. He dropped Mosley bad in 3 and what does he do? He lets him go. He was pulling punches all night and just beating Mosley up enough to look dominating. And then Pac's a bad liar. That thing about hiss legs cramping was a load of crap. He was clearly dancing around the ring in the middle rounds so he definitely was making it up.
on floyd backpedalling, backread pls. on footwork, ok my bad. Pacquiao has shitty footwork that he tends to lose his balance in fights. he uses telepathy in reaching mosley and his past opponents with his lead left. no footwork, just left hands. there you go. Balance=Footwork.
Pac didn't give shane the angles that I've seen him give other fighters in the past. He didn't need to, the hand speed, power and accuracy are all there yet but last night his feet seemed just a little off to me. Maybe his leg was hurt, who knows. He was there for Mosely to counter but he couldn't pull the trigger, I think Floyds lead right would give him all sorts of trouble. If Pac gives Floyd the angles that he has given others in the past he will hit him with something he doesn't see comming. It would be a chess match, it would probably be considered boring by the general public and I doubt its ever going to happen.
I am now 100% sure Mayweather beats the snot out of Manny. SSM actually could have done well in that fight if he pulled the trigger. All he had to do was plant, fire a right, and hug. I am also positive that the SSM that beat Margarito would have given Manny fits. Pac was befuddled and frustrated by the footwork and defense of SSM! Think about that for a second. WTF? Pac is wide open when he chases and he can't cut off the ring. When he is inside he doesn't even fight. Pac is EXTREMELY dependent on his opponent having a leaky defense and constantly coming forward.
Nope,if Mosley fight Pac like the way he fight Margarito, Mosley will be TKO. The reason Mosley is more aggressive in the Margarito fight is because he knows Margarito is slow, and he will not be countered. Mosley himself told, he has never faced a fighter before like Pacquiao, he told if he opens up, he will be TKO by Pacquiao. If the old Mosley and others could hurt Floyd, what more with pacquiao. Nothing has changed, I still got Pac by TKO over Floyd.
What he is saying is that if Shane would have pulled the trigger and thrown while Manny was opened for the shot he could have done some damage. Manny was open so much but Shane couldn't chew gum and walk at the same time. Its one thing to move against your opponent but its another thing to move and make them pay for over extending.
Mosley himself told if he tried to be more aggressive he will get TKO, he told, he has never faced a fighter like Pac before. Which is actualy true, Pac is an akward opponent. Mosley is afraid to be countered, if you look at the why Pac is positioning himself he is looking to counter Shane.
What the hell are you talking about? If Mosley just launched a right hand occasionally it would have caught Pac. Pac was chasing with his hands down. Hell Mosley touched him a few times. Pac only fights slow guys who don't Box. I think we got the answer on the Slick Boxer question last night. Pac has no answers for defense or movement. Pac looked like an amateur. :deal
Yea...I'm look at Mosley stand in front of Pac with Pac dropping his guard every 5 secs like...wtf are you doing Shane? Hit him. You know another thing I saw? He pushed Pacquiao around a whole lot in that fight, not even counting the knockdown. Pac didn't like it.
When Shane got off first and controlled distance, he actually did well, it's when he sat back and allowed Manny to dictate distance, pace, and when and where exchanges would occur that things went down hill. Mosley who isn't a defensive fighter by any means made Pac look wild and ineffective at times. There were counter punch opportunities there, Shane just couldn't pull the trigger to take advantage. Floyd can and will take advantage of those opportunities. I think PBF would make it an ugly fight and win a clear decision, I'm more confident of this after last night. Floyd will take advantage of Manny's mistakes, he'll frustrate him, and when the opportunites come he will counter and possibly hurt Pac.
