The nit picks: Things you may not have noticed during face-off

i swear, we can already declare the winner from here.

Pacs the real A side. it just dawned on floyd.

CubanLinx · May 2, 2015

I don't think either of them looked nervous but to me Floyd definitely looked disappointed when Manny raised his arms at the end. Maybe he hoped that man shouting in the back would have got in Manny's head.

The guy screaming in the background failed to realize that Manny won't be intimidated. Manny had a very tough life growing up and that screaming **** just won't work.

Also, Pacman love the spotlight. He loves the crowd and camera. The bigger the stage the better he perform.

When Floyd does a job on Pacquiao all these silly observation and amateur psychology will look pretty stupid

RustyRyan · May 2, 2015

Floyd always gives me the impression that he's 'trying' to be Floyd rather than just being Floyd if that makes sense. Like you just knows he's been practicing all his stage moves and staredown in the bathroom mirror whereas I don't think manny cares much about a staredown and looking tough which to me indicates more confidence in himself.
My money's still on Floyd but Manny is definitely more relaxed.

There's actually two of Floyd's goons screaming at Manny, the one in the background that you mentioned and another on the far left. Class act the money team.

Here are my nit picks after ****yzing it.

1) Two people were screaming at Manny during the face-off from TMT. At least, from what we could see from the video. May have been more. When Manny looked away, he didn't break because he didn't want to look at Floyd. He broke away because a dude was next to Floyd yelling at him that he was going to get, "knocked the f*** out." A manager actually went to the dude next to Floyd and was telling him to be quiet, but he wouldn't listen. Manny kept glancing at him, nodding, and smiling at the remarks. The other person can be seen in the back, centered between them. Sunglasses, red jacket. It's not hard to miss nor read his lips. "You're going to get knocked out little boy. You hear me? You're going to get knocked the f*** out." Etc... That's what was distracting Manny. Kinda of funny. Wanna see Manny's reaction to face-to-face trash talk? Well, there you go.

Look at this vid to see my nit-picks.

2) Manny told Floyd more than just, "Thank you." I'm trying to read his lips before the thank you but it's difficult. I can't quite figure it out, so maybe you all could help too. I'm picking up on maybe, "There's no more. Thank you.", "No more, thank you." Someone help me out? I'm dying to know.

It's at 2:11

3) After they turn to face the crowd, Manny looks at both of them on the giant screen in the back. Do you want to see a man's reaction to when he realizes where he's at? Where he realizes that he is a part of history, that this fight is actually happening? Watch his reaction at 2:17. It was the happiest thing. You truly see how happy he is when he realizes where he's at in that moment. That what he's been waiting for for 6 years, was right there. Out of all the interviews, I've seen from him, I've never seen a smile appear on Manny's face like that one. I've never seen him so in the moment like right there. Seeing the moment hit him like that was incredible.

4) In a weigh in vid where you see their whole bodies, watch Floyd's feet. Just nit-picking, but when they turned forward, Floyd was swaying on his feet and every time he swayed, he was taking small steps away from Manny Pacquiao. May not mean anything, but it caught my attention.

5) After Manny raised his hands in victory, Floyd looked at him like... he's ****ed basically. I think tonight he realized that, unlike past opponents, Manny didn't shrink on a stage this ginormous(as Floyd may of expected). He only got bigger.

aha! so i never had noticed those two TMT thugs screaming at Manny, this is why Manny seemed distracted and was smiling. Did Floyd need his two thugs to intimidate Manny? Manny didn't falter, he just smiled and said something to Floyd. If anything, this type of behavior will just fuel Manny to beat the s h i t out of floyd.

as you say Manny grew in size when the moment arrived, sort of overshadowed Floyd. Floyd definitley looked angry when fans starting going crazy as Manny waved.

oh wow you're right, when Manny raised his hands and the people cheered, Floyd looked at him and was like "are you serious?" and walks away, probably pi$$ed that so many people were cheering for Manny.

edit: Floyd looked really uncomfortable lol

Holy Grail · May 2, 2015

Entertaining to read but weigh-in ****ysis is a waste of time and doesn't mean much at all

kragz · May 2, 2015

The ape in the background screaming at Pac looks to be Nate Jones.

I don't about the rest of this ****, but you're absolutely right about this point. Who are those idiots and who do they think they are roaring at Manny? That's disgraceful. That guy should have his lips and nose remvoed with a planer.

Honestly this weigh in actually had something going on...

I was flipping sh*t...Pacquiao completely owned the whole event. Didn't expect that at all.
