Pacquiao has had everything his own way up until now...

he is a more skilled fighter than those 2. u think of a brawler and u think of slow plodding that throw hooks. pac is a skilled fighter.

 

ah i see. well i can honestly say that bruce lee is among the most influential people i have ever studied, but i think this statement from him, while it has logic, doesnt apply to every aggressive fighter and every boxer out there. You could say to an aggressive fighter ''you cant fight a boxer like a ballet'' while at the same time saying to a boxer ''you cant fight an aggressive fighter at his own game''... doesnt matter how aggressive you are, you still need a gameplan!!...

...Pacquiaos power doesnt lie in his first punch. It comes from his 2nd, 3rd and 4th after.... so how do you think Pacquiao will land these on Floyd? :think






(i gotta go, ill reply a bit later :good)

 

Mark my words. Pacquiao will win. I will be betting on this fight, and I will be betting a lot.

 

Bob?...Is that you?? :think

 

Why do s23041983 and artofwar post the same? :think

 

what do you mean 'post the same'?

 

My honest opinion is Manny Pacquiao's best chance to win against Floyd is to catch him early and blitz him. Floyd has been wobbled three times in his career (Corley, Judah, Mosley), and each time it happened within the first 4 rounds of the fight, which Floyd usually uses to feel his opponents out.

Manny's best chance is to catch Floyd early and stop him quick. If Floyd is allowed to survive an assault, his ring IQ and ability to switch tactics kicks in. He'll figure Manny out, counter him effectively, frustrate him, and either go on to a landslide points decision or stop Manny late.

The longer a fight goes, the more it favors Floyd. Manny may be have great stamina, but he does not possess the ring IQ of Floyd Mayweather, and I honestly believe no one currently fighting does.

 

Where the **** do people get this stuff from? Did Hatton even win a round in his fight with Mayweather? Everyone talks about who did this to Floyd and who did that but the man hasn't had a close fight in years. Over the course of 12 rounds, even the best defensive fighter is going to get hit. But that's not the same as being FIGURED OUT. Zab had some success but still got his ass beat by an INJURED Floyd. Ricky scored a few points and still got KTFO. JMM hit Floyd with a few punches and got completely shut out. SSM hit Floyd with punches he DREAMED he would hit him with and was systematically broken down. Hell, SSM said that if he hit Floyd with the right hands JMM hit him with, the fight would be over. GUESS AGAIN. Pac is going to get countered and picked apart, then broken down and probably stopped late. Get your heads out of your asses.

 

You go first.

 

Gotta get your mom's out actually.

 

well thats a one-sided way of looking at it. you can say the exact same thing for pacquiao

 

That argument wasalready made in the opening post of this thread, Silver. :huh

 

thats disregarding the original poster. hes probaly wrong too. this is about an even match as you can get.

 

pac isnt losing stamina. what mayweather is going to have to due is tame pac offensive by effecitvely countering.

 

I do agree that they both have equally comparable records, but Pacquiaos recent success comes from beating the likes of Cotto, Hatton and De La Hoya. Each of these fighters came forward against Pacquiao and paid the price for going up against his speed and power... Mayweather wont do that!!!
