    Floyd has pop, but he also has bad hands. They have been ok recently, but I believe they have really limited him this department -- ALTHOUGH he STILL has a HIGH KO RATIO!!!!!

    Not to sure about that. I would say that both Judah and Corrales punch "harder" than Pac, and Floyd faired pretty well against them. You have to hit him to hurt him. Judah did it in the first couple rounds, but after that...

    Floyd's overall power is underrated - Pac used to be a one punch knockout artist but as he's moved up in weight he's had to wear his opponents down with accumulation of punches.

    p4p = Floyd
    overall = Floyd

    If Pac fought DLH a few years ago ... he would've knocked him out - literally

    Corrales and Judah don't have the speed that that Pac has. Both were beaten due to the speed of FMJ. With Pac, Floyd's gotta deal with speed and power which Im sure is gonna disrupt his rythm and performance...

    Pacman, mayweather cant punch for **** which is why he never does a 1 punch ko on his opponent.

    depends on how you really look at it.

    the manny 3 years ago vs an ODLH of 3 years ago, manny would get his ass handed to him

    the manny that fought ODLH last decemeber vs the ODLH of 3 years ago would be competitive for sure.

    If both men plant their feet and throw a haymaker then maybe its close to even since Floyd is slightly bigger then Manny now. In the ring Pacman 9 times out of 10 because of his style and aggression. Take both men at 135 lbs Pacman has a strength advantage I would say Pacman is a 9 to Floyds 7.5 in punching power at 135 pounds.

    Sometimes moving away can add power to a shot, cause it might put someone on the end of your straight, or on the end of your power.

    Its Pacquiao for me.

    Hatton was hurt by powder puff punchers like Collazo,Lazcano.

    You could also argue that the ring post played a part in the KO loss to Mayweather too.

    Gatti has been hurt by Ivan Robinson,Wilson Rodriguez,Baldomir,Manfredy, its not like Gatti had a solid chin, he just had lots of heart. Mayweather was able to hit him at will and he did not hurt him once.

    No matter how you disregard the pattern of his style, FMJ is still that type of boxeer lurking in the background awaiting for that opennig. Remove that in the scenario and you'll have a cobra fighting another cobra. Who'll you bet then???...
