Floyd is a great defensive fighter and a legend (well has the talent of a legend). What I know is that when you have someone with legendary talent and great defensive skills put together into one fighter, you aren't knocking the guy out if he doesn't want to get knocked out.
It's just impossible. If Floyd wants to hear the final bell, he will. Cotto IMO could have gone the last 2 minutes of the Pac fight and his defensive skills up close were very leaky.
Only way Pac gets the KO against Floyd is if Floyd doesn't have enough pride in himself to hear that final bell if he is in trouble against Pac.
Just think about it. Get Pernell Whittaker, and tell him to just survive 12 rounds against ANY fighter 1 weight class above him. I don't think you can name any that can really be sure of KO ing him, especially if he's in there just to survive.
Floyd, unlike any opponent Pac has faced recently, has never been hurt or beaten up in the ring. There is no wear and tear to aid Pac toward a victory. He's going to be facing a 100% fighter.
100% fighter? Idiot, Badweather is a 101% runner!! :crazy:

What you're saying is not entirely impossible, if Floyd just keeps running, then Manny won't be able to hit him at all. Even Cotto who was tired and beaten was very hard for Manny to catch up to. The key is i think, is to let Floyd come to Manny, Manny shouldn't have to chase him. If i was Manny i'll just stay in the middle of the ring and let Floyd come to him. But knowing how much of a Pvssy Floyd is, that would never happen. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
Hmmm who do I believe Freddie Roach or Sandro17. I'm so torn.
Roach wasn't exactly accurate in his prediction against Cotto. He makes mistakes.
I mean really,why couldn't Pac KO Barrera in their second fight? Barrera just wanted to stay alive.
