While it's true that Floyd is less battle worn, he has some major weaknesses and problems that could surface in this fight.
- He is the older man at 38.
- He has taken a lot of vacations and partied while Pacquiao stayed disciplined and continued fighting.
- His reflexes are slowing down. He took shots from Maidana that he would've easily dodged 5 years ago.
- He doesn't carry much power as a welterweight. His last real stoppage was Ricky Hatton over 7 years ago.
Does it really matter? both are still #1 and #2 of the WW division and both top5 p4p fighters. Even if you think this fight is 5 year to late, this is still the #1 vs the #2 WW fight. No excuses, winner will be undisputed King of the WW division and P4P #1 on all lists.
Floyd's fought for 16 years in the pro's, Manny has fought for 20. Plus Floyd's style of fighting last's a lot lot longer than Manny's style. They're not "equal" in fight years.
Just be happy that the biggest fight of our generation is FINALLY happening. You should be happy right now, not bitter.
Floyds first pro fight was 96 , Mannys was 95 thats as good as equal .
Im as happy as a pig in sht , I know whats going to happen in this fight and I always have , one of the best parts is the haters are getting made redundant .
Did i have an excuse after JMM KOd Manny? Whats makes you think i would now? Oh wait...dont answer. Because youre a fuking retard thats why!
Yes you did , you said JMM was on roids and he caught Manny with a lucky punch , thats a big excuse .
Be careful not to get a cramp in your ass , its long time to be squeezing your ass cheeks till May 2 .
Floyd is going to expose Manny by winning easily it wont be close at all and your shting yourself lol .
they're both still the top two fighters and neither one is prime. no excuses should be made. they're on even levels. pac may have gotten knocked out but hes still the 2nd best fighter there is. lets just enjoy this.
B0XEO;15398180]:lol1: Pacquiao's been a professional for 20 years.
Don't act like Floyd's fighting a Prime fighter here.
Just be happy that the fight is finally happening and quit your bytching.
You think Floyd is prime , Mannys trainer said he has shot legs and cant pull the trigger , Floyd has been fighting plodders while Manny has be knocking over 6 times these young lions that are super fast .
They are as good as equal at the any time they fight and have slipped about equal also , when they meet shall the best fighter expose the other .
Is what you sad pacman fans will say when floyd schools him..?
yeah the pac boy's, spoon 23's and Freedoms of NSB are already making excuses. They are scared to death Manny will lose.
IN b4 what gloves does Manny get to wear? and who is the ref?
go fuk yourself.
HaHa that knot in your guts is causing your ass i to pucker badly .
What excuse will you use for Manny getting exposed lol cramps ? he found God lol
Who is Floyd going to school?
This is his toughest fight in a long time, against someone who is faster than he is, southpaw and doesn't have concrete feet.
Floyd has lost a step.
This will be a very competetive fight, win lose or draw I'm with Manny.
