pac will win early rounds but then eventually mayweather dominates the middle and later rounds and wins by either ko/tko/ud...
i guess pactards are just as stupid as pac political career. thier is nothing techinical about pac fighting style. iam not even a floyd fan but get real for a ****ing change pac is know were near the skill set of floyd.roach can come up with plan a-z and pac is still not going to win. like i said be real for a ****ing change pac will not beat floyd.
Pac will beat Floyd, bro. REason why he's insisting on this PED TESTING SHIT. He knows it. Get real and wake up. I'm not even a May hater. Wake the *** up and stop hating.
dude, wat is this debate about?? pac isnt a defensive fighter, pac is nowhere near as able to adjust as mayweather. most fighters arent, its just a fact. and finally pac is a rhythm fighter. he defense is kinda automatic...roach taught him that rhythem patter which helps him avoid some punches. thing is, mayweather is by far the best at figuring out rhythems. he'll pic pac apart after the first 2 rounds if he doesnt adjust.
pac is great at what he does, throwing combo punches at angles, fast footwork and incredible stamina. lets not act like he has a incredible ring iq. u wont hear me goin around claiming mayweather is an amazing combo puncher. it just aint true
Pac and roach can make adjustments and out think some of these other guys but PBF is just superior in that regard. Pac leaves himself open for counters and Mayweather will be there to take advantage of that.
They both have good handspeed, it wont be a factor though just as it wasnt a factor in the mosley/may fight. What will matter is PBF's superior reflexes and his defense and technically sound habits. He will be there to counter Pac all night.
Pacquiao landed a pitiful amount of punches against Clottey? I think you need to rewatch that fight. Don't confuse number of punches landed with connect percentage.
Pacquiao did what he had to do to win every round. The goal is to win the fight, something Pac did without even breaking a sweat. Everyone likes to bring up his bruised eye but the fact is that Pac looked like he could keep going for another 12 rounds after the fight and that he would win every one of those too. Who gives a shit about a bruised eye if you're winning every round and easily dominating the fight hands down?
That fight just showed Pac's versatility. He can be a technical boxer with an extremely high connect % (see the Hatton and Cotto fights) or he can be a high volume puncher and outwork his opponent to an easy 12-0 decision.
That's called versatility.
Your just mouthing off now. You don't even know what your talking about anymore, that's why you bring up bruised eyes and other shit irrelevant to what we are talking about.
You said Pacquiao was technical, I said he wasn't. You braught up Cotto, Hatton, and ODLH. I brung up Clottey and now you go on mindless rants.
I think it's pretty obvious that you know Pacquiao isn't a technical boxer but just don't want to admitt it.
Pacquiao is a great fighter, no argument there. Technically efficient? No. Enough said.

hatton and cotto are not defensive fighters...they are always on the offensive. mayweather can fight both offense and defense depending on the situation.
u cant bring up that fight thinking he'll do the same with mayweather. its a different fighter after all. and as far as i remember he won that fight convincingly.
all i know is pac will throw more punches than mosley. and wont be gassed at the end of rounds. it remains to be seen what will happen, we all say this and that.
I can bring it up when discussing technical efficiency.
If Pacquiao was as smart and technical as that guy is trying to make him out to be, he wouldn't have landed such a miniscule amount of punches. He would have been picking apart Clottey.
It's alot easier picking apart a guy who doesn't punch back and Manny couldn't even do that.
Don't get me wrong. Manny is a great fighter but his computer(brain) isn't running on the technical boxer OS.
First, Pacquiao isn't the most underrated boxer on NSB. If anything, he is overrated. Because people like you make him out to be something he is not.
Pacquiao is fast and powerful. Is he a technically efficient boxer? No.
You want to bring up fights? Go watch Pacquiao-Clottey. If Pacquiao was the boxing tactition your trying to make him out to be. Then why did he land such a pitiful amount of his punches?
If he was a technical boxer, he wouldn't have been throwing crap at a walking punching bag. He would have been picking apart the holes on a guy who doesn't even punch back.

Pac is far from a slugger man. Here is Pac taking away Cotto's confidence in his jab (his best punch) in the 2nd round of their fight.
Watch Pac vs Hatton. Notice how Pacquiao completely nutralized Hatton's left hook (his best punch) right from the beginning.
Watch Pac vs Oscar. Notice how Pacquiao completely nutralized Oscar's reach advantage with his movement and angles right from the beginning.
Pac is the most underrated boxer on NSB. A slugger? gtfo. Just cause he's also good at slugging it out doesn't make him a slugger. It just makes him well rounded.

no he didt pac fought the same way he always did funny thing is when pac tried to do something diffrent cotto out box him.pac is too stupid to adjust on the fly pac has to follow a game plan or else he is ****ed
hehe this, funny but too true, if roach f's up on the plan like naz did last night pac is a goner.
maywewather knows how to adapt to certain situations throughout the fight. he makes adjustments and he figures his opponents out. thats how he beat shane, thats also how he beat judah and hatton.
pac will win early rounds but then eventually mayweather dominates the middle and later rounds and wins by either ko/tko/ud...
except that pac is much better conditioned than mosley, which was key in that fight. he also will be wearing 8 oz reys instead of grants, which looked like they were 10 oz. and manny is much more mentally strong than a guy like zab and just a lot better than a hatton. i was impressed with his win last night, but i still don't think he beats manny.

yeah I believe that if Floyd and Pac ever fight it would be more of how quick Floyd adapt to Pac speed and start to counter.
remeber Pac was vurnable against Juan Marquez so I expect Floyd to dominate Pac in a much better and improved way.
plus Floyd is not the type of fighter who will sit in front of him as a pucnhing bag.
pac beat cotto because cotto was too aggressive. watch pacquiao's fights against marquez. he knockdown the guy 3 times in the first round and then ends up in a draw. his second win against marquez is also questionable also. he was unable to figure out marquez after the first fight and throughout the second fight.
Y'all don't know shit about boxing man. Pac has pretty much lost 1 round in his last 5 fights. Just speed and strength don't do that for you, especially when you're always the smaller man. Ask Zab Judah about that who is even bigger than Pac and has faster hands at WW.
Zab is a boxer/puncher. He is very intelligent but he lacks heart and stamina.
Pacquiao beats people with his speed and power not his brain. He doesn't outbox anyone, he out works everyone(speed) and the accumulation of mutliple punches eventually ends in destruction for his opponent(power).
Pacquiao's game has nothing to do with being smart or using your brain to fight. He's a slugger, those types don't use their brain.
The simple fact you talked about who's hands are faster at WW, in a discussion of brains/smarts, proves you are the one that don't know shit.
Pac will get frustrated before Mayweather ever does
I have never seen mayweather frustrated in a fight but i have seen Pac frustrated in numerous fights. I have also never seen PBF tired or with his face busted up but we have seen those from pac.
Bottom line is Pac better stop PBF early if he wants to win cause he aint winning on points over 12
Pacquiao is a lot smarter than most people think... I don't see why he'd reach the P4P list without using some of his own brains during a fight.
Brains =///= speed + power
