    You could just as easily say Pacquiao had an easy, stationary target in Clottey in his last bout and couldn't get him out of there.

    To be honest...no-one knocks Mosley out. I've seen him down once, and that punch would have knocked a tree down. I thought he was ready to go in round 9 or 10 I think, but he dug deep...took some big shots and stayed on his feet.

    I think he means he needs more speed in general, hand speed, foot speed, etc. He will need to close the distance really quickly against Mayweather, because Mayweather sees movement and he is away.

    What evidence do you have that Bruce Lee took steroids? He doesnt even have a steroid body type.

    Let me guess, you think Jackie Chan took steroids too right?

    You ****ing idiot. He was just saying what he 'thinks' he meant, because what Pacquiao said didn't really make sense.

    I'm not joking. This is a pretty well known fact. Look it up, Bruce Lee did take steroids. It was perfectly legal back then.

    Come on man, you're an intelligent guy and knew what you were insinuating. Why do you stoop to the level of idiots?

    Anyway, how are you man? Long time no chat.

    Why do the *******s have to make excuses for what he said?

    He does need more speed. It was obvious PBF is faster than Pac.

    Me and my friends were talking about how PBF is faster. When PBF punches its a damn blur. When Pac punches u actually can see the punches. Also PBF can punch that fast with power from any position. Pac has to launch himself with his feet leaving him off balance and ready for a counter. which is bad news against PBF.
    I cant wait for this fight. Too much money to be made.

    They sure were a damn blur, especially the hooks thrown off the ropes. With single shots, no one matches Floyd's speed. Combos, perhaps Pac has the edge.

    Floyd's accuracy and timing will beat Pac.

    End of story.

    There could be more focus on training that helps with fast twitch muscles. Manny and Floyd are fast anyway but Manny needs to be as quick or faster than Floyd to be in a postiion where he can increase his chances of winning.
