thankfully we won't be seeing as many ridiculous threads about how MP would beat SRR, SRL and Hearns. These guys would decapitate MP, absolutely box his ears off.....if Shane was younger he would have done it.
Frankly i think this fight reveals just how well MP has been matched in his last four or five fights.
Now Manny might still beat Floyd at this stage of their careers, but i think in a lot of peoples eyes Floyd's chances look a whole lot better after watching this fight.
The only problem for Floyd is catching a few similar punches that Shane also took and then getting finished off.
My opinion about this fight hasn't changed. If Manny doesn't put Floyd away in the first 4 or 5 rds (or really beat him up) then the fight will get progressively worse for MP the longer it goes as Floyd finds his angles, sets up his distance and starts timing him with precision counters.
After watching this fight i am almost sure Roach and Arum will do everything they can to avoid Mayweather, even if Floyd comes out and explicitly states his intention to make the fight happen.
Pac would do well against SRL. Even Floyd senior did OK for 10 rounds.
Why are people so fearful of Pac getting so much credit they have to start threads about how badly he would get beat by fights that wont happen? THese haters are bit more reserved with their predictions when the opponent might actually have to fight Pac one day.
Pathetic really!

Pac-Shane is just Pac-Shane
a meaningless stay busy fight where 1 guy ran for 9 rounds
has no bearing on Pac-Floyd or Pac vs anybody else
people making a huge deal over absolutely nothing :laugh:
Did Mosley look and Move like he's 31?
Thats what Pac said, "he may be 39 but moves like he's 31" Did Mosley look like a young fighter against Mayweather or Mora? So why is Pac lying?
So you think he beats them........ofcourse he isn't going to win a fantasy fight against these guys.......are you delusional????
yknow, over the past decade, pacquiao has surprised the boxing world again and again. I think he'd be no easy win for srr, srl, or hearns. pac has his moments, and i think last saturday was just not his day.
i dont think srr, srl, or hearns has ever faced a fighter like pacquiao. and i just wish i had a time machine so we can see these fantasy fights come true. but as they say, pac will never win a fantasy fight.
Manny will NEVER win a fantasy fight. NEVER.

sad to say, but the welterweight landscape of today does not hold a candle to what it once was when honeyghan, curry, breland, starling were the dominant forces...
let alone against the era of leonard, duran, benitez and hearns...
Don't use these names because u will be speaking alien language in Pactard ears.

So if SRR, SRL or Hearns they would go into survival mode??
So you think MP beats all black boxers throughout history because they all "go into survival when hit by MP?":trink26:
never said that.
SRR, SRL, and Hearns were warriors, not like most (not all) black boxers today.
Mosley was not a good style matchup for Pacquiao, even though he is old and shot.
Anyone who believed that Pacquiao would have beaten guys like Leonard, Hearns, Robinson etc were nutjobs anyhow, I dont think most of anyone took them seriously.
its a shame, but by the time Mayweather and Pacquiao fight(if ever), I believe both of them will be past prime. ****in dumb.
Floyd has been past prime since the Baldomir fight........

nah son... mosley was still standing in front of wifebeater hoping to land a big shot that would turn the fight around... with pac, mosley was in full retreat.. full on survival mode.

cottos black??
Shane just did the same thing he did against Floyd.....he got hit, he got tired and he tried to survive........
i don't know what you're trying to get at with this post....it's irrelevant to the topic unless you are trying to imply MP would hit SRR, SRL, Hearns and they would go into survival mode?????

Additionally Shane's balance isn't even close to Floyd's. It was when Manny upped the pace and he had to move faster his feet got tangled all over the place and he got hit more.
