    Pac had a shoulder injury and Floyd was on PEDs (cycled through illegal IV fluids). Despite this, Pac still hurt Floyd twice, countered him frequently, had him clinching the most he's ever clinched in a fight (warranting at the minimum 1 point deduction and several warnings), and Floyd landed the least he's ever landed on an opponent.

    But your hating ass gone ignore all of this.

    A hater? My issue is the Manny “would have…” as if they didn’t fight. They fought, Floyd won relatively easily, and we don’t have to speculate because we saw it.

    I disagree. Their foot speed is similar. Floyd is a defensive fighter who was always ready to back up at the slightest feint so he looked quicker. Floyd’s reflexes were faster for sure and that made him react earlier so he’d move earlier, but I don’t see much difference in actual speed of foot.
    Pac’s in and out of movement is very fast.

    Sure, but Floyds lead Right hand which was one of the fastest punches in boxing when he was at the top would have gave southpaw Manny alot of Problems as well. Floyd would have to rely on his great reflexes and defensive countering to iffset Manny when hes rushing in with his quick combinations . Floyd from the Mosely fight vs Pac from the Cotto fight would have been a true smokers delight!:naughty2:

    Pac was injured, the much smaller fighter, and ain't hard to find. Floyd landed the lowest connect on an opponent on Pac and he hugged the most of any opponent he's ever fought. That Floyd didn't KO an injured smaller fighter who got pasted into the Twilight Zone 3 years prior was a spectacular fail. Plus illegal IV fluids, ya dig?

    When was the last time Floyd scored a TKO? Ortrees? Cmon mayne, nobody thought Floyd would have ever won by a stoppage victory against Pac, thats nonsense to even suggest that as a failure bruh. You see the head on Pac-mayne? Thing is like an over inflated basketball, ya heard. Floyd aint popping that **** no way no how.

    Lots of people was predicting Floyd by KO including his team. Floyd was "pissed" at the media and fans for all the years of accusations of fear and ducking. Floyd would punish Pac, they said.

    Smaller injured fighter that was in the a Twilight Zone for 5 minutes after a roided Juan nuke. There was no reason Floyd shouldn't have stopped him. None!

    Lol why are you looking at his opponent when measuring hand speed? That’s totally irrelevant. You idiot

    Floyd did look fast in that fight, and so did his combinations as well.
