"Pacquiao will break Mayweather down if they ever collide" -Freddie Roach

Very good points. This will be more like a chess match. But, Floyd's size and reach I think will be the key in this fight. Plus, Floyd is a defensive wizard. Pac has improved tremendously in this department. But, I don't think he is at Mayweather's level, defensive-wise. Plus, like u said, Floyd is not an aggressive fighter. He will wait for Pac to throw down before he decides to throw back. Pac relies on his speed and offensive output. Floyd will wait in the pocket and counter when he finds an opening like he did with Judah.

 

Pac has the speed and combinations of punches, flurries, that would freeze floyd's lock up defense. Pac is too fast for floyd to slip in a pot shot. floyd really doesn't have a very good controlling jab. Pac would break floyd down and by the later rounds he would start abusing floyd.

but we know the fight will never happen, floyd will duck Pac. He is alreayd laying the foundation for the duck by having Ellerbe saying the fight will never happen unless floyd makes more money.

 

Many Pac fans claim Marquez put an ass whooping on JMM, despite the fact he got a draw and a gift of a SD win.

You watch the Floyd v Oscar fight and tell me that was a split decision. Floyd clearly won the fight.

 

If you believe that you're flat-out ******ed and have no idea how to score a fight. It was 8 to 4 Mayweather clearly.

 

Pacquiao is very good. I would not be surprise if he does beat mayweather.

 

I couldn't recall Hoya landing a solid punch.

 

Floyd makes adjustments better than anyone in the fighting game. Manny does not. Manny looked baffled at times against Marquez in BOTH fights. I like Manny, but this fight is all wrong for him.

 

:rofl
Roach is doing a lot of sh*t-Talking lately .. I wonder if he really believes the hype or is he trying to psych both himself & Pac-Man up.

 

All he did was throw a bunch of pity-pat punches that hit Floyd's elbows.

 

Adaptability will be the biggest factor. He had trouble with Marquez's and he might have nightmares with Floyd's. He'd have to fight the fight of his life. Maybe he will, but I dunno if that would be enough.

 

Roach said pacman can beat delahoya-:thumbsup
Roach said pacman will knockout hatton in 3 rounds:nono It only took 2 rounds

There's no doubt he believes pacman can beat mayweather. He will just have to prove the doubters wrong. So far he is 2 for 2. :good:good:good

 

I'll give you that .... Yes two of two.

But I think he's off track with Floyd vs Pac-Man .. Not because I'm a nut-hugger. But because Floyd is smart enough & skilled enough to exploit Pac-Mans many flaws.

 

Judah doesn't have a plan B. Perfectly exposed against Cotto and PBF, in which he dominated the first few rounds but eventually got KOed. He looked good against KT in their first round but towards the end of the round, KT worked him out, or at least changed his plan. You know the rest - chicken dance.

 

Hey moon Whos ur avy is that is that who I think she is?

 

lol. youre so in love with JMM. and you need to bring the barrera fight where he gets a KD. let him try to bring it to a bigger guy in front of him and dont close your eyes if mayweather counters him with a right straight. you think he is tougher than corrales, lol. i dont get it if whos the noob between us the way we see the style much up of the two. you may be ahead on no of posts but how many are garbage? at least im pretty sure my wisdom is greater than yours.
