"Pacquiao wins because once again, he's fast and fights in angles. What Mayweather doesnt do? He's not busy enough. He throws 1 or 2 shots at a time and that's it. You cant fight like that against Pac and get away with it" -James Toney I think Toney summed it up perfectly!
This was the same dude who went in the UFC and truly believed he was going to beat Randy Corture by out boxing him. That was his game plan for that fight. All those skills and no brains made James Toney tap out in the first round. Manny is going to have to prove that he can beat May by actually beating him. Assumptions and speculations are not going to cut it.
Mayweather can neutralize Pac's output with footwork, and Pac's movements and rhythm are can be timed by someone with Mayweather's skills. The right hand will land like a heat seeking missle on Pac.
I'm sure if Arturo Gatti were still alive, he'd disagree that Floyd only throws 1-2 punches at a time.
If Mayweather can beat his opponents throwing 1 or 2 punches at a time it's probably the reason he only throws 1 or 2 punches at a time. Make him throw more to win and he will.
Mayweather - with the jab and that super straight right. Pac will look ordinary and won't be able to figure out what to do.
Hatton was a busy fighter but all Mayweather had to do was pot shot him with straight right hands. Marquez was busy but Floyd blocked almost all the punches, seldo did Marquez land something like a combination. Its not about being busy, its accurate punching. Floyd is better at.
He only fights from angles after he's managed to pin you down with his first punch, however if you take away that set up punch, he cant get those combos off as much and then switch angles on you when he has you disorganized Mayweather will land the counter right uppercut on Manny, the jab, and the lead right hand over and over imo. Manny does not close distance with the jab, he tries to jump across the kill-zone with his straight left, only against Mayweather he will have to jump in from further out, because Mayweather's longer than him, capable of operating from further away, now because of this factor, Mayweather will get more time and space to whip the counter right uppercut into play whilst Manny's jumping across the distance shooting in with his straight left. Manny has no glove defense, which is why he gets hit with the jab so easily at times, he doesn't parry or block enough. Manny moves his head in a predictable rhythm, almost as a token gesture, and because of the way he holds his gloves, his defense is wide open up the middle, which is why I think Mayweather will pierce his guard with lead right hand as he's coming in. Manny doesn't have a jab to close the distance, so will have to resort to feinting his way in to try and offset Mayweather's timing whilst he trying to counter him coming in, then he if he manages to create an opening for himself by feinting, he will try to explode into range with his left hand, however this will only be made easier if Mayweather stands still, which Mayweather wont, he will keep Manny turning. A guy with a poor defense is not going to beat Mayweather, if he wants to apply pressure with a poor defense, his only chance is by KO imo.
Manny has been able to get away with poor defensive techniques because he is so fast and athletically gifted. Guys who try to capitalize on them get beat to the punch. Manny also knows that he is the superior athlete and has gotten very comfortable inviting people in so that he can out gun them. This is why when he faces someone with elite hand speed that will capitalize on these flaws and not get beaten to the punch he may end up in deep water.
but for now it would be safe to say FMJ is really a coward since he does not have the confidence you have on your post that to himself fmj already implanted in his mind that the moment they meet in the ring, it would be his last fight and now fmj keeps on dragging this negotiation. guess what fmj is now demanding for 100M ... easy fight yet it has not happen ... one dimensional, yet could not agree and ends up on vacation and urge and now 100M does not want to be cheated, but fmj himself is a cheater who goes to the fight weighting more than what was agreed and his negga uncle says it does not matter :tired
