He has his work cut out for him. And im not talking about Floyd out boxing juan for 12 rounds I mean he needs a knockout if he wants to be considered the favorite in fighting manny.
Iam one of the biggest floyd fans out there but even I know Manny Pacquiao made a statement on saturday and floyd needs to respond
If Floyd wins...It wont be a shock. Most will say he beat up a little guy or kod a little guy. Personally i think he will lose. But if he does i cant give the bigger man credit for looking impressive. Now if the shoe was on the other foot, i could. Jmm is a great fighter. I will give him all the credit for moving up 3 divisions taking on all top guys champs and beating them deceitfully. If floyd beats JMM and runs around doing it. I will throw up in my pants. This is whats going to happen. JMM will chance him and not be able to do nothing and floyd will do what he does well and make you look bad. If he runs from a little guy it wont help the build up.
That's what I think as well, he really has to make a good statement with this fight. Mayweather said it himself, "He is a good small man but I am a great big man." If he's not the aggressor pushing Marquez back then it will probably take away from thunder from Mayweather especially with casual boxing fans.
a UD with little or no trouble would be sufficient IMO.
Floyd vs Pac at 147 would be a different kettle of fish as compared to ODLH vs Pac...in saying that ive still got Pac winning but it will be tough...60/40 Pac so no gimmie.
