    Even Roach has admitted Floyd can move his head.Pacquiao is not the greatest body puncher but then Floyd defends his body very well,ask Hatton.Floyd's greatest asset is as he defends he counters so whenever a fighter tries to attack that's an opening Floyd uses.

    The thread title may be gay, but you do have a point.

    Pac will find it very difficult to land enough to win rounds, I fear.

    I'm sure as a boxing fan you know why Floyd's called Pretty boy.He didnt give himself the name.After boxing sessions everyone's face would be marked up,his face would still be looking the way it did before the match.This was a compliment to his defence.Unlike Floyd's face Manny's face will be all marked up,I'm not implying he'l be ugly

    I think he'll do just enought to eek out a SD win

    Remember-Floyd has to win rounds too. How is he going to do that exactly?? I see him 'attacking' (in any ways such as counterpunching etc) in a minimal way. I seriously doubt he opens up too much at all with the risks involved.

    Pacquiao should stay busy enough to win rounds and he'll almost certainly be the aggressor throughout. Mayweather may even make Pac look foolish at times but pac is so relentless and doesnt seem to tire. It may be like Zab Judah but much more stamina and more speed and power amongst other things

    Looks at the gifs. Sees, Gatti, Baldomir, Hatton :think.

    Not exactly much in common with Pac.

    Not saying Pac can't lose. I've always said Mayweather has a nightmare style for Pacquiao. But I do give Pac a chance, based on his physical tools and based on awkwardness.

    Also there are always difficult styles for everyone, more subtle things that aren't apparent to anyone until the actual fight. Small things that make fighters a pain for others. This could be the case.

    I think so too,, that is unless Roach and Pac's gameplan is to simply outwork Mayweather and come at him like a typhoon ...

    Mayweather won't win rounds by running , pot shotting and throwing 40 punches (even with a high connect %)

    if Pacquiao comes out throwing 90 punches a round, he will win a UD vs Mayweather...

    Mayweather needs to counter Pacquiao and not let him get off

    Manny throws so many shots,if he's missing and Floyd's making him look like a fool then judges will give it to Floyd regardless of Manny's work rate.That fact alone will show who the better boxer is.Everything Floyd throws at Manny will land while Manny will be missing.

    Manny's relentless when he's landing shots,when all he's doing is eating leather he will get frustrated and the confidence will go,after that expect a boxing exhibition from Floyd Mayweather,that could be from round 6.There will be a possible knockout around round 10.This will be Floyd's easiest fight

    I can't believe you used images of Hatton, Gatti and Baldomir. They got hit by EVERYONE they fought, often and with ease.

    Crazy ****

    I replied to you earlier - Floyd wins the end of this round beating Corley up, he wasnt badly hurt

    Your right about the opposition having little in common with Pac though, Judah has allot in common with him though

    If Pacquaio is missing and getting countered flush, his workrate will drop dramatically. In fact I'll say now Pacquaio will throw far far less than normal, unless he starts landing/hurting on Mayweather, if he misses hes going to be open for counters and eat them just like he did against Marquez

    PAC would put Gatti, Baldi and hatton on all fours without running and ducking..
