Roach: Pacquiao is Ready for Mayweather

emmanuel landed only 10% or 34 out of 349 of his jabs against Morales in their first fight.

for his last 4 fights 184/1499 is about a 12% connect on the jabs

Floyd is so good at parrying that emmanuel won't land any jab.

most southpaws aren't jabbers, and emmanuel isn't an exception

 

He's wouldn't able to average his usual 20+ power punches per round against Floyd either. If a lesser defensive Boxer like JMM could limited Manny's power punches per round, then so can Floyd.

 

You're funny, dude. You're acting like precious "Gollum" to Roach. Roach says Pacquiao is ready for Mayweather, and here you are saying Roach knows Pacquiao isn't ready. :yikes

 

With someone like you who "loves" Pacquiao dearly, the last thing we expect from you is a crebible, realistic and unbiased analysis. I bet you don't believe that yourself. :hey

 

Is this worth watching or is it the usual **** ?

 

You're acting like Mosley consistently stood his ground in that fight against Floyd and didn't used any backward movement at all. Shane backpedaled on his bike in much more rounds than he fought Floyd standing still. Whilst Manny did landed more power punches and total punches on Mosley than Floyd landed on Mosley, he did threw far way more punches than Floyd threw and still landed 16 more total and 54 more in power punches landed. Manny throw punches in bunches regardless of the pace of the fight he's in, you just have to be defensively skilled enough to limit how much he land on you.

 

Mayweather refused it because he doesn't like Mayweather dictating the terms of testing?

 

I see what you're saying. However, the only likely case scenario that i could see would be Manny connecting 20% of 60 power punches thrown per round against Floyd, 12 power punches landing per round. It's not impossible to hit Floyd, but hitting him consistently enough to connect around 35-40% of your power punches isn't likely to happen regardless of how accurately Manny is.

 

Nobody said Manny will not connect with Floyd. He will hit Floyd but I doubt he will hit him consistently with power shots. Manny will not be throwing 5 punch combos bc Floyd will not be there to be hit by them. This fight is going to be fought at long range and inside by Mayweather anyway, and that will spell doom for Manny. Yes Manny has great power but that **** can be zapped just like his speed can be neutralize. I just want to see if Manny can actually adjust when plan A fails him, and if he has plan B can he adjust when that fails him. In my opinion Floyd is going to make Manny play high speed chess and it will be a thinking game in that ring and we all know who wins that battle. Manny will probably throw no more than 40 punches per round bc he will have to be in range and we all know he can't cut the ring off for ****.

 

The difference though is Floyd will tie manny up after he pot shots him.....the flurries will hardly exist in the fight....and PAC will consistently be held off by a stiff jab...sorry but it will be a lot Like when Floyd fought hatton except PAC is a powerful headhunter n not a body puncher...

Marquez gave the blueprint to beating PAC...if he tied up more often he would've won both fights easily even with the knockdowns

 

what I have come to realized is Roach doesn't believe Pac can beat a prime Floyd. He only thinks he can beat an older Floyd, so that's why you hear him talk about his legs are gone or how he doesn't move around as much and stuff like that.
He banks on stuff that he hopes Floyd can't do anymore.

 

One thing everyone needs to realize is that Roach don't know what to come up with in order to beat Floyd. He has had several goes at it with different fighters and Floyd whipped their asses. Roach knows that he needs multiple game plans for Floyd and that still might not work. :deal

 

what??? :huh
