Its his money punch and he throws it beautifully, like JMM's signature uppercut-right combos or Pacs laser like straight left....what ya think? How effective would that right of his be against the P4P King?...tried to embed the video but my phone is acting up. You think he would land it on Pac with ease as he has on all past 40 opponents?
only I dont see Floyd being in the same spot after he lands. Imo Pacs footwork will have to be on point cos he cant airwalk on Floyd like he did his last 5 opponents to be effective.
Exactly!...people seem to forget how versatile Floyd is. We saw what happened in his fight with Shane...Floyd came to fight, went forward, attacked and countered. He punished Shane, Richardson even told Shane that if he kept getting hit he would stop the fight.
Floyd shut my mouth that night, he fought like a man, took some, and gave back in return and didnt retreat. Floyd can fight in different styles and his footwork is great! He wont be standing helplessly infront of Pac he will use it all. I think this will be FOTY whenever it happens.
Of course he will land it but then what? If you watch again Pac's latest fights. after he got hit he is ready to fire his combination and win the exchange. Pac has the habit now of purposely getting hit to unleash his combinations.Its not nice to see but very effective.

Floyd has much success with his pull counter against right handed opponent that uses their left jab to a high degree, he tried it with Judah and was met with Judah's right hook that almost floored him, and we all know that Manny has developed his right hook as a second main weapon now....
Are you kidding me??? Duckqiao has no defense man the only reason he's beating people is because they're all weak from the weight they had to shed.That dude has zero defense just look at his fights he gets smashed in every fight.Why do you think he won't fight anyone legit??? He fights drained shot bumms and his next fight is just confirming this comment..shane mosley??? must be a fkn joke..isn't he getting sick of fighting floyds leftovers??????? That coward will never face floyd..with his weak karate footwork and zero defense the only thing he can fight is damaged goods from top rank.
If Pac cuts the bullshit excuses (scared of needles, giving blood makes him lose, supersticions) and fights Floyd and wins...He'd be the greates of all time in my book.
If Floyd cuts the bullshit and gets his ass back to the gym and don't go on so many fucking vacations and fights Pac and wins...He'd be the greatest of all tme in my book!
right hand lead all night followed by a clinch. if floyd does this all night to manny, trust me, its gonna be a long fight for manny. floyd doesnt have to fight any way that proves to be a disadvantage to him. he has a number of strengths against manny, and its up to him to utilize them. if floyd stays in the pocket, does damage, clinches then moves away, its gonna be a long nite for manny.
my thought is it all depends on manny's level of footwork. if he can use his footwork to close distances and to move in and out fast enuff, floyd wont be able to time him so easily.

I think floyd would dictate the pace using his size advantage, his jab and right lead and keeping his distance. I think that is what will frustrate pacman
You think it will frustrate him enough to get desperate and walk into a flush check hook like Hatton did?
The right is supposed to be effective against southpaws, JMM landed it a lot against Pac yet Pac never fell apart. The thing is we know Floyd will land it, at will probably, but will Pac fall apart or will he get frustrated and start fighting sloppy...er?

The whole thing about using Zab as an example is a problem because Zab is bigger than Manny about the same size as Floyd, also Zab was quite familiar with Floyd so he knew what he was trying to do.
Floyd just has to fight as the big man and make Manny pay for real estate he takes then move either in or out. Floyd is good at controlling range and has the advantages on the inside and outside (because of range) as long as Floyd keeps Manny out of his range in the middle the fight should be his.
1-2 all night counter or lead.
It will be the right-hand lead that floyd will land with regularity. Someone posted earlier that floyds walks southpaws, and he fights more offensively against southpaws. On to another point I dont get how some people think floyd is feather fisted i've never heard any of his oppenents say he hits soft actually most of them are suprised by his strength and power.

pac will get hit alot. But so will floyd. Floyd gets hit alot more against southpaws I mean i think just the judah and corley fight alone he got with more big shots than all of his fights with orthodox fighters combined(im not joking go watch those fights). Those lefties are not pacquiao. Pac's 100x times better.
If he fights pac the way he normally fights southpaw's which is moving forward, he gets his ass beat.
So you think Roger Mayweather has no connections with other trainers to get some fast southpaws for Floyd to spar with?? Im sure Roger ain't gonna train Floyd to fight Pac the same way he fought Judah or Corley, Pac is a beast and I'm sure they will cover everything they possibly can in their training camp.

Floyd didnt need to use his legs with jmm cause he had the reach and jmm doesnt really use his..didnt need them with shane cause shanes legs are gone..he know with manny he'll have to use his legs cause manny is so quick on his feet...he cant fight manny like he did shane..and manny cant fight floyd like he fought margo..both will have to bring thier A-games and adjust thru out the fight..imo who ever adapts the best wins
I dunno man. Floyd tends to walk down southpaws
manny can constantly attack floyd..floyd doest stand in 1 spot or just walk foward in straight lines man..this fight will be very complex
those who say Manny will just attack attack attack!!! forget that his last opponents were their to be attacked and arent on the level Floyd is. Once Manny gets countered, and continues to be timed by pin point accurate pot shots his four-five punch combos will be reduced to nil. why do you think Floyds opponents, no matter who they are, have the worse compubox stats of any other fight in their career. master defense, timed counters, picking shots, all comes down to BOXING and Floyd is the better boxer. Manny has skills, and i do not doubt that he can touch Floyd and hurt him but just judging by his style and who he's been fighting lately compares to Floyds style its hard to see this fight going down any differently than Floyd turning it into a boxing match.
