    Pacquiao crosses his feet and gets carried away with his wildness.

    If they fight the difference in the level of footwork will be apparent. PBF's footwork is one of his best assets against Pac. Who can't fight backing up nor can he handle movement nor cut the ring. PBF's footwork is the best in the sport today.:deal

    Is this a serious question? lol Floyd offensively or defensively

    Floyd has 2 problems with footwork

    1- His age (which hasnt really had an effect to this point)
    2- His right hand lead has a tell, he leans his back foot forward before he pulls the trigger, but nobody he's fighting can see it because if they take their eyes off Floyd's upper body they will get rocked immediately.


    Many has many foot related problems

    1- He crosses his legs to much when chasing
    2- He cant cutoff the ring effectivey vs defensive minded fighters
    3- He backs up from punches instead of swing to the right or left (not ass much of a problem recently)
    4- He is also getting older ie slower on his feet
    5- His southpaw style makes footwork more important and harder on him than other fighters
    6- Cant fight backing up
    7- Overall lack of ring general ship

    Mayweather has better footwork, which is why the fight is winnable for him. He has fast hands and great footwork. Manny has fast hands and good power and sharpness.

    Manny gets off balance a lot and crosses his feet when throwing multiple shots and coming forward

    Floyd is rarely off balance and doesnt make too many footwork mistakes

    Was there a Gayweather fight that he has to cut off the ring against someone with the caliber of Mosley?????

    Then we can compare how both cut off the ring.

    Watch Mayweather vs Mosley round 11. That is how Manny is suppose to cut the ring off.
