    Best point made all thread. He used this against all the southpaws he fought and it worked better than anything else he threw. He snapped Sharmba Mitchell in half with it(of course Pac is no damn Mitchell). But it worked against Judah and took the steam out of him quickly. When he leads with the body jab he is fast and he rolls out the way of danger instantly so its not like he is left out there hanging. Then he can fake you out with it and come over top with a right hand like he did with hatton. But This is a great fight b/c Pacman is a beast.

    He knocked Hatton out with a quick ass left hook while his feet were planted and knocked him out cold. Not too many people can do that man. Mayweather did it while he was moving. anyone can knock someone out while they are moving as your punch velocity goes with your body movement, but to do it standing still with your feet planted is something you do not see everyday man. Manny just has the naturally faster hands man. I told everyone before the Judah fight that he was faster than Floyd and everyone thought I was crazy until they fought. I have been watching boxing since the 80's and I'm 33. there is not too many people since then that I have not seen in their prime so I can compare. You don't have to agree, but I know I'm right. I am not knocking mayweather at all but I hav ebeen folloing all these guys for years and I have seen a lot of poeple evolve and deteriate.

    I still think Mayweather is faster but we'll see on July 18th. But Mayweather can KO Pac for sure, his power is under estamated. He was KO everybody before he moved on to 147 which guys are bigger then him. And Mayweather can get agressive when he wants too. Once he seen Hatton was falling off he took of on him.

    To do that Floyd will have to walk forward or take some kind of chance to get to Pac's body. And with Pac's speed, power, and counterpunching that wil be way to risky. He will not do that at all.

    This fight will be very very good.....i think pac could win if he just stays busy....he does this naturally anyway its just his style. I think he could impress the judges with bringing the action to Floyd and decisioning him.

    Floyd will have to use lots of tactics to bait pac out his rhythm and game. This could go straight rights and then clinch like the hatton fight to keep the pace slow. Also he could play the ropes and counte the combos that Pac will throw sneak in some short hooks and uppercuts.

    the fight is about Pace and who can control the fight....its a damn good fight.

    Well that is cool you have your own opinion but he can not KO Pac, like I said he has no power and he will not take that risk. He will not get aggressive because he will not win the speed battle. Again Pac is a prime counter puncher and he counters with speed and power. Hatton was done man so of course you will get aggressive after you knock someone down. That is the nature of boxing. Like I said before the only way I can see Floyd winning is to double and triple the jab until he see's an opening for the right or left lead down the pipe and run away. If he rinse and repeat that tactic then I believe he has a good shot of winning a decision. He will not KO Pac at no cost because of his lack of power.

    Floyd doesn't have KO power for the naturally larger WW, but he does have KO power to people his size and below, unfortunately for JMM and Manny they are close to his size (JMM) and smaller (Manny). Floyd can definitely hurt Manny and JMM.

    I still don't see that happening. We will just have to wait for July 18th to see if he can hurt anyone with skill and movement, instead of a stationary target like Hatton in which it took him 10 hours to dispose of.

    Corrales, Chavez, Castillo, and Judah didn't have skill and movement? Stop hating.

    Cant be serious with that. Anyone can punch when they are stationary, not everyone can punch on the move and very few can hit going backwards. The punch floyd hit hatton with floyd didnt even sit down on, nor did he have his elbow up on the hook. Floyd really Knocked him out with an arm punch.

    LOL at alot of you believing that JMM-Mayweather fight is a forgone conclusion victory for Mayweather.:lol::lol::lol::lol:

    The JMM-Mayweather fight is the real fight for supremacy, as either JMM or Mayweather would stylistically school Manny Pacquiao.

    Pac is vulnerable to alot of shots, as evidenced by the loads of clean punches JMM landed on him.

    My opinion is that Pac more often than not loses to elite skilled technicians like JMM and Mayweather......these fighters just are the very best at ad******g to the happenings from second to second......


    There just are'nt many in boxing today, but an exellent boxer with a good chin and Pac is vulnerable to not only get beat but get schooled.

    Floyd was moving back as he was coming in. Was not a stationary punch and alot of that had to do with Hatton running in and hitting the post. Yeah I give Floyd credit for the KO, but again his natural hand speed is not faster than Pac so please get over it. But again in July when we see the fight with Marquez and he does look good I will give him his respect. Please do not try to compare a fight from 18 months ago from a guy who is on a 17 month hiatus to a guy that has been tearing people up for the last year. Does not compare at all cuz.
