What does Pacquiao bring to the table

Speed, aggression, power, tenacity, combos, accuracy, workrate, stamina, southpaw stance, chin, self-belief. I forgot footwork, technical ability, experience and angles. When you look at it, it is easy to see why Floyd ducked this fight, Pacquiao just had too many advantages.:chomp:

that floyd hasn't encountered and triumphed over before? nothing... zab, baldomir and hatton are better, more accomplished fighters...

pu55y boy floyd's fanboys are the dumbest fans on earth. for roughly $190 million, their idol is still too scared to fight the one-dimensional midget. they keep singing pacquiao is too weak and unskilled as a fighter, but they're the first to defend an astounding amount of roadblocks and demand the most stringent tests ever demanded of an amateurish boxer in the history of the sport. i'd be fighting such one-dimensional boxer for $1 million if i were pbf just to prove i'm the best. nahh. these fanboys' opinions mean sh1t. :bigeyes:

Heart, Excitement, an ATG, Boxing skill, footwork, Mexicutioning, Iron chin, willingness to fight anybody, speed. Question is: what doesn't he bring?

Most accomplished southpaw floyds ever faced. Okay I agree with that. I know i said earlier that he was able to best corley and judah but someone reminded pac is in an entirely different league. I still say floyd wins just for the sake that he is a good counter puncher, and thats what pacquiao struggles with the most. pac's aggressive come forward style will be tailor made for floyd. And if he tries to box him floyd will win that battle in my opinion. Hopefully the fight happens and we all find out.

True but if pacquiao comes straight at floyd wouldnt that give floyd more opportunities to counter? The best thing you can do for a counter puncher is come straight him, and with that pacquiao will eat a lot of straight right hands if he does that. I think the angles will give floyd problems at first. Hell pacquiao might even stun him and knock him down. I still think he will adjust and win. I just dont see pacquiao winning given the fact that he struggles with counter punchers, and he'll be in the ring with the best in the sport. But hey who knows. You know man, I'm not here to say that Pacquiao can beat Floyd, I'm just anwering the question from the thread. There was never any doubt in my mind that Floyd will find a way to beat Pac and make it look easy, I'm just curious to see how he does it.

He's filipino :banana: :banana:

that floyd hasn't encountered and triumphed over before? a fighter with leg cramps and a personalized stadium that is still being built?

Most accomplished southpaw floyds ever faced.

Did he not do that with Zab Judah and DeMarcus Corley? Not at the level Pacquiao is capable of, not even close. Also, Floyd's not the same guy that beat Judah and Corley. Although, I can't speak for Pacquiao these days. The time where I was fully confident Pacquiao could and would beat Floyd is gone.

Judah and Corley are slick southpaws, boxers. Pacquiao is aggressive one in a kind southpaw fighters who's great at giving angles to stationary or coming target. I'll give that angles to Judah though, he used it well against Floyd, that leaves us with aggression as a southpaw. Floyd's way to fight southpaw was always backing them up and countering while staying on their face. If he plans to do the same thing against Pacquiao, then it's going to be way tougher task as backing up is just not in Pacquiao blood and he won't wait as Corley,Mitchell or Judah did. So Pacquiao requires some adjustments from Floyd, definitely. Even if people think that Floyd can do everything what Marquez did twice as good, Floyd will still have to do something he never did in his career, as he never once let a southpaw come to him.

Nothing. That's why I'll be looking forward to Mayweather vs Martinez. Sergio will bring a lot to the table.

He's filipino Lol i guess that seals the deal for pac's victory then but good point.

He's filipino
