Whos Faster: Pacquiao or Mayweather?

pacman

 

Mayweather! Nobody's beating the Pretty Boy from 100m to 400m.

 

like some posters here said

single punch: mayweather

combination: pacquiao

 

agree... mayweather sr single punch is so fast
but bobby's combination is also fast.

 

mayweather's right is pretty fast. That's all you really need to beat the pacman.

 

Mayweathers timing - and ability to adapt in the ring, would
make him a very tough opponent for Pac.

Mayweathers advantages - timing, range, defense, versatility
and athleticism, but most importantly, he is as smart as Ive
seen in the ring

Pacs advantages - explosiveness, combinations, power and
probably most important against Mayweather, is that Pac
throws his punches from awkward angles and is just as
skillful with both hands.

Its one fight that I couldnt pick the winner, but sadly its
a fight that I dont think is remotely possible, due to both
fighters egos.

 

:good

 

I think Pac has a slight edge.

 

pac.. easy. just compare their fights against hatton and de la hoya.

 

Mayweather has speed in a similar way to Joe Calzaghe, potshotting. Whereas Pac has huge power in his speed.

Lets look at their common oponents:
Ricky Hatton: Fought Mayweather and was knocked out in 10th due to build up of punishment.
Pac demolished him. Bernard Hopkins said after the Pac-Hatton fight: "I spoke to Hatton 10minutes after the fight and he had no idea what hit him or where it came from'

DLH: When his team handed in the towel they said 'there's no point carrying on, HE'S JUST TOO FAST!'
Pac beat him to the punch EVERYTIME. To the point where DLH stopped throwing punches altogether.

Now if we look at Mayweather-DLH. DLH put up a good fight and didn't have too many problems with Mayweather's speed.

There is no denying that PAC is MUCH MUCH faster than Mayweather. It's Pacs biggest asset and the thing which wins his fights.

Anyone saying Mayweather is faster – back up your comments. Saying it doesn't mean it's true.

 

Not true. Hatton fight. Hatton didn't even see the punch and had no idea what hit him 10 minutes after the fight:

Bernard Hopkins: 'I spoke to Hatton after the fight and he had no idea what hit him or where it came from'

 

Mayweather has very quick reflexes, its a lot harder to look quick
fighting from a philly shell defence - than it does just letting your
hands go, like Pac does - and does it brilliantly.

Both fighters are of different styles completely, I think Mayweathers
reflexes are as good as Ive seen, his ability to **** that right up and
counter - is an art in itself, that not many have done as well as Floyd.

Combination speed, no doubt goes to Pac, its what he does better
than anyone else in the game, its why he is soo dangerous.

It takes more than speed to win a boxing match though, but this
one would be one hell of a fight, no matter which side you look at it
from.

 

Not the best quote as it's Amir Kahn but it's worth quoting all the same:

“Manny’s very, very fast, very quick, and his hand speed is so good he throws punches you can’t see,” Khan said

Sugar Ray Leonard
“Pacquiao has incredibly fast hands.”

Evander Holyfield
"I think he'll give Floyd trouble. He's got fast hands too, he's left-handed and he's got a lot more speed than pretty much all the guys Floyd has fought,"

Where are all the quotes saying about Mayweather's extremely fast hands?

 

Whether you are a Pacquiao fan, a Mayweather fan or a neutral, you must see and admit that Pacquiao is faster.
