Name Fighters That Aren't Tailor Made For Mayweather?

Bernard Hopkins

 

Pacquiao likes aggressive fighters, so no that wasn't a good gameplan by bradley nor is it equivalent to canelo trying to box with floyd as floyd would love for a fighter to try and box with who is slower and not as skilled, bradley should have tried to hit and run vs pac, Canelo simply would not win a second if he tried to box which he did, only time he won was when he got close to floyd and wrestled him, and he did get close to floyd plenty of time, just when he got there he tried to figure him out and land punches whilst being in mid range, what he should have done is get into a clinch and rough him up

 

I didn't see that at all. And Bradley's gameplan is equivlant to Canelo trying to have a gameplan centered around pressuring Floyd due to the fact both would be gameplans centered around the fighter's weakness. Furthermore, you say Pacquiao likes for guys to come at him. Well how many times have people said the same thing about Floyd? Maidana regularly employs the same sort of strategy that you wanted Alvarez to use. How many people do you see saying that Maidana will pose a stylistic problem for Mayweather?

 

drainelo was a statue, no point discussing a gameplan he cant execute.

pedjr already executed his gameplan in the negotiating table.


so what should be bradley's gameplan then?

 

Pac, GGG, Martinez,

 

'gameplan centered around pressuring Floyd due to the fact both would be gameplans centered around the fighter's weakness' - Canelo pressuring isnt his weakness (albeit not his strength either), but it is not same because of what the opponent likes, to beat pacquiao you can Box your way to it, but to beat Floyd you cant, because he is in my opinion along with Rigo, the best boxer out there now.

Maidana doesn't have the size advantage Canelo had - Maidana is similar size to floyd, Canelo is way bigger, he struggles to make 154 - he's a big fighter, no one says that floyd likes aggressive fighters they say he likes plodders, being a plodder worst thing you can do is stand front of him and try to box him.

Am not saying that he would have caused floyd problem, but it still stands

VS Floyd

Canelo fighting dirty > Canelo boxing

He could have trained all camp for it, it would have been better than them going in and thinking he could figure out floyd by boxing

Bradley should have in my opinion tried to apply the JMM gameplan from fight 3, instead he tried to implement JMM gameplan from 4

 

at 154: Lara
at 160: GGG

at 147: Pac/Bradley
at 140: Pac/Thurman

I would love to see him against any of those fighters. Maybe even Danny Garcia, even though I think Garcia is made for Mayweather

 

Forgot Martinez, but I still don't know what condition he is in, will have to wait till Cotto's fight. If he knocks Cotto out, Maravilla will be the next logical step for Mayweather, in terms of greatness.

No GGG though, Genady would murder Floyd.

 

You couldn't be more wrong Pac is tailormade for him. GGG and Martinez aren't though I agree.
