From Oscar via Twitter - There is no doubt in my mind mayweather beats paquiao.styles make fights. It's called styles.mayweather will be patient to wait for manny to make the mistakes,you see manny is fast but mayweathers timing is key. I respect manny and he is great for our sport but mayweathers style will beat anyone if you don't have a stiff hard fast jab. Pacman is the man and he does deserve to be the best fighter on the planet today. Believe me I'm also frustrated because I feel with golden boy promoting it each fighter can make huge money and it will be great fight. I believe they both want to fight each other I feel that right now pac is being squeezed and people are making money off him but once there are no more heavy bags there will be no choice but to make the fight happen.it's a shame because manny wants it and Floyd wants it. Thats my inside opinion.
Marquez spent the first part of the fight trying to out box Floyd and trying to hit him with counter punches...big mistake. Once he realized that the only chance he had was to attack, he started to land punches.
All I'm saying is that there was a time when you could think back on a Floyd fight and not remember even one memorable punch landed by an opponent. Now, there are several of those moments in every fight. Both Mosley and JMM tied to box with Floyd.....I think Pac will try to swarm him with combinations. Mayweather may very well win but it won't be a stroll in the park.
username mathed continuously ignores stats. Go Figure. only on boxingscene.
oscar's on the money about floyd and manny--floyd will beat manny and bob knows it--manny wants to find out and he will soon enough--the fight imo is a huge mismatch--floyd is too methodical a fighter for manny--

Rounds 1-6 Marquez landed 32 punches.
Rounds 6-12 Marquez landed 41 punches.
So increasing his output gained him 1 extra punch a round.
Should be noted that.
Rounds 1-6 Mayweather landed 113 punches.
Rounds 6-12 Mayweather landed 198 punches.
Mayweather landed lets say an extra 10 punches a round in the later half of the fight.
Also you are wrong saying there was a time you couldn't remember Floyd getting tagged, against, Judah, Corley he was tagged. I cannot remember what opponent he was up against but his face was kinda puffy at the end.
He is more defensively sound now.
It doesnt matter if you have Pacquiao timed. He still lands his shots and he still makes it hell for you. He's really not a pressure fighter at the higher weights. He doesnt stalk you, he moves in and out. A prime Marquez at his best weight had Manny timed and he still got hit with plenty of powershots. Pac now has a better right hand and is a little smarter and actually has developed a pretty good counter right hook. Point being, Doesnt matter who you are, you wont have an easy fight with Pac. That goes both ways as well. You wont have an easy fight with Mayweather. The fight will be competitive if it ever happens.
Marquez landed 69/583 12%
Mosley landed 92/452 20%
You're speaking as though Marquez and Mosley landed a great amount of punches against Mayweather when they barely hit him.

Didnt Arum give Floyd some bullsh*t deadline acting like he was his boss/promoter? That right there is being plain ignorant...you don't give a guy you DONT promote a deadline for anything. It's like Lou Dibella giving Pac or Floyd a deadline to sign to fight Martinez or Williams.
If Arum is promoting one of the fighters, of course he can impose a deadline. He doesn't want his fighter left hung out to dry with no fight while Floyd is stalling and getting arrested.
Oscar is always siding with Floyd on the who would win thing. The weird thing is, DLH had to quit on his stool against Pac but didn't against Floyd. His face was a swollen mess after the Pac fight and it wasn't against Floyd....styles make fights I guess.
Floyd is not gonna toy with Pac, I can assure you of that. Floyd will take a lot of punishment in that fight.....he isn't going to be a "Pretty Boy' that night.
Fuken idiot dont know the difference between a 145 lb Oscar and a earlier version at 160 , you call yourself a boxing fan lol best you understand the sport and how somethings outside of the ring can have a big effect on the outcome of a fight , fanboys can only ever see the bash sheeese .

Dont even bother. Bringing actual facts and stats dosent help your arguments on boxingscene I found out today.
LOL.....Pactards......you sound like a complete tool.
DLH wanted that weight in the first place.
I call it like I see it...Mosley stuck Mayweather by throwing one punch at a time. A bloated Marquez hit him numerous times once he started to thro combination punches at Mayweather. Of course your hero Laughed the punches off when they landed (why wouldn't he, I'm sure the punches of a lightweight felt like mere bug bites).

You stated he was a minimal puncher you idiot. I show stats where his output is not to far from Marquez's. But I want you to show me a video of Floyd's running, I ask this from people all the time and they cant ever give me a link or video. If Floyd runs so much it shouldn't hard to find a video of Floyd running on youtube for me.
Floyd-Mosley was a one off. He usually doesn't thow that many punches. What's his average punch output for his last 5 fights? and JMMs?
lol...wtf is that?....i guess after those stats floyd has offense like morales or a jmm huh?....lol.....its common knowledge that he does'nt .. you should know that he runs more than he punches since youre a flomo but it's ok to be delutional i guess ...it aint like its a crime...

Exactly, so people shouldnt be surprised when Floyd (a more intellgent defensive counter puncher then Marquez) Takes advantage of it also.

ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
do you think he smashed the girl tho?
I would.
He was probably more interested in wearing her clothes than anything else.
