    Just like it has confused all other fighters that have faced him in the last few years, I've always tough that what people look at as flaws in Pacquiao's style are actually his advantages, Now of course Mayweather is not any fighter so the game changes with him, Mayweather will not only be the most skilled fighter Pacquiao will ever face, he will also be the one most capable of adjusti ng to his style, what we need to ask ourselves is weather Pacquiao's awkward style of boxing is enough to confuse Floyd, or is Floyd boxing discipline and accuracy enough for Pacquiao.

    Make the fight happen, lets us find out !

    It hasn't really confused other fighters.

    His workrate, speed and punching power wins him fights. His boxing skills don't confuse boxers. We saw Morales and Marquez have sustained success against him with their boxing skills and while the fights were close, it proved the point that Pacquaio's physical assets are what "bests" him over other fighters, not his style.

    Pacquaio is not the same fighter that he was years ago.

    Pacquiao's punches from all angle will frustrate his opponents. Remember what hatton said on 24/7 while watching pacquaio trained, same punches everytime but what happen comes fight night? The so called same punches knock him the **** out.

    if anybody is going to get confused it going to be pacquiao. as awkward as pac is, he doesnt really change what he does. mayweather however more versatile. he did what most people expected him not to do against mosley and thats be aggressive. roach is going to have to devise one hell of a game plan for pac.

    Come on, the guys knocks guys out jumping of his right foot and punching with his right hand (think about it)... if that's not an awkward style then I dont know what it.

    Don't ask those kind of questions.
    Floyd's fans adore him.
    Floyd would beat 5000 lions easy.

    Yeah i get ya. The Lions would get dealt with easily.
    2000 Tigers then jump in and get beat.
    15000 Hyenas failed too.
    What a wonderful planet Floyd's fans live on.
    Can i have some drugs too?

    umm..yes he is....his crap performance against Cotto and Clottey proved just that..shot after shot those guys didnt go down..and when manny DID fight someone who wasnt shot or game [marquez in the rematch] manny got out boxed and badly...

    Floyd's "Counter Punch" style is made for Pac's.
    Mayweather's speed being the difference which shall push him over the edge.
    Think about what JMM was able to do to Pac but X2.
