    I wonder whose still going to be a Floyd fan once he loses?
     

  2. Never said it was great. But it's not bad by any means, and it's certainly better than a straight forward, flatfooted Mosley.

    Not one person the planet could have Floyd above Manny on any P4P list.
    I feel bad for Floyd fans. Great champions fight the best out there. Pot Shot medalists duck everyone and talk a lot. Just because the fighter looks good against hand picked opponents does zero to show what is truly inside. Duckweather fans are probably Roy Jones fans also. Hopkins and Shane victories will make the potshot fans disappear.

    :rofl Same thing can be said about Manny. How about Roach saying he knew DLH was past it, Hatton wasn't good and Cotto being past it as well and making the fight at 145 instead of 147 (Pac was going to win anyway). AND he said Mosley is too good for Pac.

    Do you even know what "second to none" means? If you don't, I feel deeply sad for you.

    If manny fights mayweather the same way he did with clottey, coming in wide shots. Floyd will just easily counter and possibly KO pac or win on points. Either way mayweather is just more superior nuff said

    I used Hatton as an example of someone getting broken down to the KO through continuous punishment from Floyd's right hand. None of pac's recent opposition have been able to hit him cleanly enough to put that kind of hurt on his AZZ.

    Can't wait to see how Floyd deals with pac's fast feet. I'm thinking of clinching. Haven't seen manny in a clinch yet.

    I'd be disappointed if this fight ever happened and Mayweather doesn't knock him down at least once, or even a flash knockdown.

    My money will be on PBF via KO.

    Mayweather will use everything against Pac. He'll clinch, throw elbows, pull his head down, and other tricks. He'll jab, he'll move, he'll duck and slip punches, he'll potshot like a master sniper. Mayweather will do all this and still get brutally KO'd. Manny will never lose to Mayweather because he's better than Floyd at this point in their careers. Floyd realizes this and will never step into the ring with Manny unless he's desperate for money to pay the IRS or other bills.

    I would, but Manny doesn't have the skill set to do it.

    I used to think Floyd would beat Manny, but not anymore. I think Manny would just be too active for him
