People should also remember that manny has a 67 inch reach...shane mosley had 74 inch reach,
not only will manny get frustrated with fast counter punches that will be timed accurately, but also floyd will use his legs move around the ring, and not let manny touch him, floyd has a good reach advantage in this one, and he will use it effectively while also reducing the pacmans work rate
People are crazy to think that Floyd would allow him to throw 1000 punches.
That's right allow.
Floyd will control Pac.
Frustrate him.
After the fight people will say Pac was shot or injured or something.
Punches Landed / Thrown for Pac man.

I'd geuss 500-550 for a Mayweather fight.
Maybe 100-115 landed.
Then again, Marquez is a stationary counter puncher. Marquez doesn't have the legs Mayweather does.
good point. But i also feel that Manny is at a stronger and more comfortable weight now.
Obviously he's not throwing 800-1000, but he'll throw over 500. Like i said he's not like Mayweather's other opponents. He's mentally tough in the ring, and he wont be afraid of getting countered.
I don't know, punch output from a volume puncher is very hard to limit even if they aren't effectively punching.
Look at Hopkins-Calzaghe, Hopkins limited him to throwing 700 punches (I think I cant remember exactly) when he's capable of throwing over 1000. Still 700 punches is still a high punch output.
We'll have to wait and see.
Less and less each round as he gets confused, countered and becomes more and more tentative. I have said it before. This fight starts out like May-Judah and ends up like May-Gatti.
This generation's Holmes-Cooney. Twenty years from now people will be asking what all the fuss was about. At the time, Cooney was going to knock Holmes out without any problem. Now, you can't find anyone who admits that they picked Cooney to win.
So, the fight has been signed, has it?
LMAO! This fight will remain a fantasy. Stop singling out Pac and the fight will be made. Simple as that. We don't have to guess like f*** idiots.
Pan fan: "I hope Pac would bow down to Master Floyd. Punish Floyd in the ring."
Floyd fan: "I hope Floyd never gives up the OST demand. Cleaning up the sport is more important than the fight. (Meaning: I'm scared for Floyd.")
probably like 500 maybee dont think there gunna fight tho i want them to even tho i think it might be the end of bscene that saturday night lol..yea floyd will effectivy counter him and make him think there is a reason mosleys punch rate went way down thats cuz when he tried he was getting tagged at will made him really think about what hes doin and well if pac goes besurker mode he'll get dropped i see manny shooting the right hook missing coming with the straght left but getting nailed mid way threw the shot as a recurring theme in the fight if it ever does happen. and well everybody on the forum thinks floyd dont hit hard but the guys that fight him sure do respect his power once they step in the ring with him. i think manny is a beast but he has cherry picked all of his oppositon after jmm 2 no boxer counter punchers only brawlers and its funny to hear merchant rag on about floyd doin this during the whole ppv thats one bitter old man if floyd (were) to ko pac in 3 merchant would go up and say cmon floyd hes a little man how much credit do u want honestly lol guarnteed.
I think i'll leave this thread since it's invested by Flomos.
lol...go watch the jmm fight. see how many punches he threw there...it wasnt 1000s. it wont be 1000s against floyd. if some ppl can stop bein fans for a second and actually rationalize things, they wouldnt sound so unknowledgable
He'll throw around the same amount he did against Marquez. Maybe slightly more. Manny's mentally tough, and not afraid of getting hit. i say around 580-630.
