    he dosent hit harder than shane so he wont have buzzed him

    also combine a solid chin , great instinct and the best defence going all this "pac gonna knock out gayweather" you hear becomes even more unbeleivable

    Speed kills

    Pac is faster than Shane

    Probably as fast as Floyd

    Plus his workrate, which will trouble Floyd

    Pac via decision

    I love the fact he has a 'solid chin' for getting heavily buzzed twice by a man who could hardly pull the trigger.

    George Chuavlo had an iron chin. Didn't stop him getting stopped.

    Benitez had a great defence; he still got stopped

    he has a solid chin o doubt shane hits like a mule sure he stopped trowing but he did connect and floyd showed survival instict , he can come through adversity


    and were combining a great defence with a solid chin and great survival insticts add to this the fact the manny in truth dosent hit as hard as some would have you beleive i cant see him knocking out maweather or stopping him so its going to points and i pick floyd UD

    I don't think he'll stop him; he'll swarm him to a hard-fought but well-earned UD, 115-113 on all cards

    ''If I can hit Mayweather like that, I will finish him off," Pacquaio told American boxing writer Michael Marley,

    That quote says it all. 'IF' And thats one big ****in if.

    Pac's workrate would give Floyd big problems. He is no aging fighter.

    This is the key to the whole show. How do you beat a man who throws 1000 punches per fight?

    Even if the connection rate is ludicrously poor Pac is always going to have a chance on the cards due to workrate alone.

    Dont you think Mayweather of steping up his workrate another level as he did on saturday? Or that Mayweathers accurate,stinging counters, may cause Pac's workrate to drop, making him think more about committing himself? It's a different ballgame when your opponnent does'nt only throw when you stop.

    I think Mayweather will make Pacquiao think more about what he actually does.

    It's all very well being able to tee off on Clottey who didn't throw anything hardly, and Hatton, who's punches came via recorded delivery.

    Marquez wobbled him a few times with counters, and to a point kept Pac off balance by keeping his lead foot on the outside pretty much throughout the fight.

    I've been consistently saying that Floyd would beat Pacquiao handily, nothing I've seen in their most recent fight has led me to believe otherwise.

    Fighting Clottey is a totally different kettle of fish, its almost pointless bringing the punc stats against him up.

    Clottey covers up, goes into his shell and essentially while he wasnt always landing Manny Pac could fire at will. Clottey also has a very very low punch output himself and his counters are few and far between.

    Manny Pac has struggled with effective counter punchers before (JMM) and he also has a lack of head movement, a lot of his defence relies on not giving his opponent a chance to throw.
    With Mayweather its a different story, Cotto, Hatton, Clottey are relativley easy to hit for world level fighters but Flloyd is probably the most elusive boxer in the sport. One Pacman finds himself missing and being countered his punch output will drop and his punch output will be a lot lower then other fights as he puts more though into his offence.
