    Pac doesnt walk fighters down. He is a jump in fighter. Much like Jones was in his prime. Pac uses his speed to jump in throw combo's and then jump back out. He stays out of range until that point that he jumps in. Pressure fighters actaully stay close and trys to push fighters back. that isnt what manny does.

    exactly, and if he were to change his style to being a pressure fighter, he wouldnt be as sucessful as he.

    Hatton walked Floyd down? At which point was that? In between him losing nearly every round and getting knocked out? Ya, Pacquiao should follow that blueprint... the ****?

    Say pac did use the ricky hatton strategy what would he do inside of the clinches? Ricky got raped in those by Floyd despite being an avid weight lifter. Top that off with the fact that pacquiao is a small man who "isn't really a welterweight" according to his fan boys.

    :huh

    Floyd is so damn overrated it makes me wanna puke. Pacquiao isn't Ricky Hatton fools. In case you forgot Pacquiao dominated Hatton way worse then Floyd did.

    What Pac would do in a Floyd fight is keep the fight at his distance, sneak in some straight left hands, and rip combinations to the body and head.

    Floyd will cover up and try to pick Pacquiao off with straight right hands here and there. He'll look very similar to how he did in the Judah fight, the difference is Pacquaio won't get tired and he won't stop throwing.

    Floyd these days isn't active enough to beat Manny Pacquiao. He's a 1-punch-at-time, potshot fighter now. Manny will win a wide decision similar to the Joshua Clottey fight, or he'll TKO Floyd late.

    If he beats Manny I'll give him a ton of credit. I doubt he will, and I doubt he'll even fight him.

    Except Judah is far better defensively then Pacquiao. Floyd had to press Judah to get counter opportunities, given Judah is a defensive counter puncher, Floyd wont have to do that ith Pacquiao who is always on the offensive and leaves himself open at all times.

    Marquez and Morales were able to dominate Pacquiao with the right hand, Floyd has the best right hand in the game.

    :rofl

    Puke then. (Hopefully sleep and lying on your back under the heavy influence of some type of depressant.)

    Keep the fight at "his distance"? You clown. FMJ has longer reach and a faster jab. "His distance" would get him popped in the face all night.

    "Try to pick him off"? Clottey hit Pac with straight right hands at will! Too bad he wasn't willing to throw them. He didn't even have to lead with a jab or feint! If that is the game plan then this is in the bag!

    "Isn't active enough"? Activity is overrated. Pac was "active" against Clottey, had all of the punches blocked, and ended up looking like he got whipped in a fight he "dominated". Speed and accuracy mean more. Pac is easy pickin's.

    You seriously don't know crap about boxing! :yep

    Everytime Judah was offensive in the fight he had success. His problem was (as usual) that he just doesn't let his hands go enough.

    Floyd pressed Judah the same way he's pressed every other southpaw. That's how he always fights southpaws.

    Marquez and Morales beat a one handed, one dimensional fighter. Pacquaio now is night and day compared to what he was in those fights. Plus Floyd isn't Morales or Marquez is he ? Unlike those Mexican warriors, Floyd doesn't fight, he's afraid to get hit, and he only throws 1 shot at a time.
    There are different defensive fighters as there are different offensive fighters.

    lol keep trying man. Clottey got dominated from the opening bell. Fast sharp punches are key? NO ****, Pacquiao's got plenty of those last time I checked.

    Activity is overrated? No. When you got a counterpuncher who's so cagey and afraid to be hit like Floyd, who had to wait 6 rounds for Zab Judah to tire before he would even engage him (he said that after the fight), and then a super aggressive high output southpaw, who's just as fast as you with his hands and feet and hits harder then you, you got a problem.
