    :lol:

    Highly unlikely but he can always claim it as the reason he was outboxed I suppose.

    Your bound to be fresher in 2 rds than your are in 12 rds, Cotto was bigger, better & hit harder than Hatton.... Pac looked just the same to me anyway TBH, if you noticed any difference then the reasons I gave are likely the cause, your only as good as your opponent allows you to be.

    if he really did have a bad knee injury I'm sure they wouldn't throw him into another fight right away if they weren't confident it was healed.

    I didn't notice anything wrong with him in the Cotto fight. I think he fought the way he did because cotto is a different fighter stylistically.

    i thought he was a little bit flat footed against Cotto but i put that down to the weight not the knee injury. When you bulk up above you natural weight its normal to be more flat footed.

    Mayweather can move the ring marvelously, do you think Pacquiao will be able to keep up with Mayweather's movements?

    I was studying the Marquez Pacquiao fight the other night, just looking to see what particularly Marquez was doing to evade Pacquiao's rushes, and being able to land so effectively........

    What the hell was Marquez doing that other fighters just cant do??????
    Why could'nt DLH, Hatton, and Cotto do it???????

    ......and its just so easy to spot....nothing really major on Marquez' part but taking little half steps back and laterally to his own left side.......and Pacquiao just could'nt find the rhythm to punch properly when an Marquez is giving him that movement.


    Marquez just offers minimal movement, Mayweather is a whole new can of worms.......as far as movement backward and to his laterals, Mayweather is in a whole different league.....

    How Pacquiao is going to be allowed to get set to throw punches at Mayweather, I have no clue!


    The reason I'm pointing this out PH|LLA is because you said it.......Pacquiao is more flatfooted at 147 lbs, how the hell he is going to be allowed to get set to throw his punches is beyond me.

    Look at the Cotto fight, Pac's best shots at Cotto were when Cotto was attacking him. When the target was there for Pacquiao to hit.......

    When the target is moving, and that target is mainly focused on the counter, Pacquiao looks ordinary.
    I'm not saying he looks like complete ****......but he looks ordinary.......nothing at all like the special fighter we all consider him.

    being outboxed means = being outboxed. THere is no getting around it. Morales outboxed him and I don't care about the bad sox he wore. LOL being outboxed in boxing of all things.

    P.S. Pacquiao loses on points but will be able to go to his concert all smiles and no bandages. Floyd goes home after his victory... hurting.

    Actually it was the first Marquez fight where Pacquiao claims he wore bad socks.......

    The Morales loss Pacquiao claims was because he was'nt allowed to wear his preffered Cleto Reyes gloves.

    it will not be an excuse if he loses against floyd...
    even if he loses *******s will still be proud 'cause he comes to fight and not to run...

    most pac fans in the phils will be very disappointed if pac wins by running..

    Well, I'm not surprised Pacquiao had a knee injury and he can't move around the ring. He's on steroids.


























    Calm down I'm joking. :D

    The injury will conviniently return after the loss.We will be told 'the reason Manny lost was because of his knee injury'.If the doctor signed him as fit to fight dont give excuses.If he's feeling good he shouldnt give excuses.The guy will be knocking people out in training,training for 5 hrs a day and 'ready for whatever Mayweather brings' then mourn when Mayweather brings his A'game.

    It's just like the Calzaghe 'hand injuries'.Only a ****** believes them
