    He knows he might get only one shot at this, and it's the most important fight of his life. Pacquiao will come out full throttle in uber-agressive onslaught mode. He'll pound Mayweather and brutalize him the way he did Marquez in fight 4. To beat Pacquiao Marquez needed to summon up the greatest go-for-broke-one-punch-kill-shot in the history of the sport.

    The question is, does mayweather have that in him? I say no. Mayweather doesn't have same ability to throw caution to the wind Marquez does. I say Pacquiao takes this UD or late TKO.

    Pac is going to eat right hands all evening. Don't say I didn't warn you. Southpaw Kryptonite.

    It amazes me how so many posters here ignore that simple fact about boxing. A great right hand will make a mess of a southpaw. Especially one with a leaky defense like Manny.

    Pac was aggressive, had great head movement and lateral movement in that fight. I honestly think it was the best Pac I've seen, minus a few careless mistakes that ultimately put him to sleep.

    I liked that Pacquiao. I'd love to see it against Mayweather.

    It was more than a few. :bbb

    But based on our earlier discussion, you don't seem to think he has the flaws that I see. You think those flaws don't exist, while I say they do exist and the only reason he's gotten away with it is because of his freakish athletic talent.

    Manny will be running into another freakish athlete, and those mistakes are going to come back and haunt him. Speed is not going to bail him out against Floyd.

    He has flaws, but nothing detrimental to the fight that I know of yet. Like the right hands... 5 Floyd right hands < 1 Pacquiao straight left

    That's just nonsense. Sorry.

    Stick to your actual boxing ****ysis. It was much better than that garbage. I'm disappointed in you. :-(

    That Pacquiao against Marquez 4 was the best Pacquiao minus the carelessness (or Heredia or stepping on Marquez foot no matter how you call it). That is the boxer that will beat Floyd right there.

    Is it not true? You see Floyd throwing right hands at Ortiz, Maidana, etc and they keep coming forward. They don't fear Floyd's power. While, Pacquiao lands one straight left and he can put you flat on your back (Mosley, Hatton, Algieri) and on the run the rest of the fight.

    I think you're just in denial. It's like arguing with a brick wall. We'll see come fight night if Floyd can make Pac respect his punches. But just letting you know, if he doesn't respect Cotto, Margarito, Mosley, or Marquez's punches... I doubt he'll respect Floyd's.

    Stick to breaking down the fighters attributes and skill sets. I had no issue with our discussion on that level.

    Saying "5 mayweather right hands < 1 pacquiao straight left" is a trolling statement. Seriously. There is absolutely zero way you could know that to be true, or even prove it. Not to mention the entire premise is ridiculous. Pacquiao isn't exactly a KO artist.

    Maidana was coming at Floyd for 24 rounds straight and all Floyd did was tie up and curl up in a ball on the ropes.

    I just told you why it was true.

    Pacquiao's left hand is still extremely dangerous. He wobbled Bradley with it, and flattened Algieri with it.

    That still doesn't mean Mayweather could land 5 rights hands and it will do less damage than 1 Pacquiao left. That entire assertion is ridiculous, and makes me question if I should take your other comments (which were better written and thought out) seriously or not. Anybody who thinks like that about a boxing match can't be viewed as a serious ****yst in my view.

    Saying Pacquiao's left hand is dangerous is a true statement.
    Saying Mayweather can land 5 right hands and Pacquiao will do more damage with 1 left hand is an opinion, an unsubstantiated one at that, and one that could never be proven. i.e - Trolling statement. Besides the fact Mayweather has one of the best right hands in the sport of boxing today. If that right hand was a feather-duster, that would have been exposed many years ago. It's not.

    And I could show you Mayweather cracking Mosley with a right hand in their fight as an example, and if you say Pacquiao is "5x stronger" than that, I can only laugh and dismiss every other word you say because you can't be taken seriously.
