manny struggles with real boxers with reflexes.
That's exactly it, these Manny fans do not understand this. I can't remember the last time Manny fought a slick boxer with movement. Floyd doesn't stand in front of you and do nothing, he's either making you miss with movement or, he's hitting you with sharp punches. Gatti, Corrales, Hernandez are perfect examples of what happens when Floyd sits down on his punches and is giving you movement at the same time.
Heart is not "confidence", they are different.
Pacquiao's mental strength is far greater than Floyd's.
BTW, what do you mean by "Floyd's record speaks for itself"? How so? You mean because he's unbeaten he's automatically better? What?
You must have never been involved in sports, if you have you probably weren't competitive. There is a saying, "Confidence of the Heart." How can Mannys mental toughness be "far greater than Floyd's"? The fact that Floyd is undefeated, the fact that Floyd makes his opponents look like amateurs, is pretty evident Floyd had great mental toughness. See Jmm Vs Manny, then JMM vs Floyd. Also, Floyd has never been KO'd or knocked down.
**** George Lopez, he is racist and a hypocrite, he was one of the biggest critics of Mind of Mancia, now he's doing the same type of show. Lopez is not entertaining, he's not funny either.
Pacquiao is a master of exactly that. People think he's off-balance though. They are wrong. The power he generates while on the move is not normal.
Any boxer can look good moving and at the same time hitting a punching bag. Hatton and Cotto stood right in front of Manny, it looked good to you, other folks weren't so impressed. In fact, the left hook on Hatton look as though Hatton was bracing for the hit, he didn't bother moving at all. Morales in the first fight and JMM in both fights gave Manny movement. The knock downs against JMM were the result of JMM getting careless.
people are trying to point to the fight were they think they had the most problem in. some people think marquez fight was his toughest fight (true) so of course they are going to cling to it. some people point to the zab fight for answer to beat floyd (somewhat true). pac fans can't point to zab fight if floyd fans can't point marquez fight
People can point to JMM rightfully so, in many folks eyes JMM was robbed twice. After the first few rounds, Floyd completely dominated Judah.
i don't get it! if this fight is one-sided and have already been decided, then why are we pushing for this to happen? would this be then the biggest rip off of all times? why would you then put floyd against an amateur midget !!!
to be honest, your post just confirms that your fighter is a coward and would never take a fighter his size or bigger than him. The same can't be said about the pacman that is why he is rated higher than money mayweather!
See: Corrales, Hernandez, DLH vs Floyd.
I can't wait to to see how this one pans out. Both men are gifted boxers, but I see much more heart in Pacquiao. Like everyone says, we will see on March 13th!
Heart is basically confidence, so you're saying Manny has more confidence than Floyd? I don't think so, Floyd record speaks for itself, as well as Floyd hasn't taken the damage Manny has.
because Pacquiao is quicker than Mayweather and throws more punches and is more aggressive.
He will spank his ass
Do you really believe that?? Manny isn't this superman you Manny fans think he is. It isn't hard to miss brawlers like Hatton and Cotto who stand in front of you. Mr telegraph puncher Margarito was able to easily land on Cotto. There is no way Mannys looping/winging punches will catch Floyd.
Is this thread a joke?? What do sports have to do with Patriotism? Most Americans do not follow the NFL, NBA, MLB, Hockey, etc. The fact that Floyd vs JMM did over a 1Mil buys is evidence to Floyd's popularity in America, look at the faces in the audience at that fight. I'll tell you what is a joke, the political system in the philippines, the idea that someone with a criminal record like Manny's can run for office is a joke. There is no democracy in the philippines, it's all based on his popularity. A country putting their hopes and dreams in the hands of an athlete is a joke as well.
Forget about weights, Floyd did not start at 147, he started boxing at 126. It's not like Floyd has been this natural 147 pounder his entire career. Corrales, Manfredy, Hernandez, Gatti, DLH were all naturally bigger than Floyd.
Lets see... Manny has been knocked out and floor many times by lighter fighters, Floyd has never been knocked out or knocked down. Floyd took shots from a 160 pound DLH. I'd say definitely Floyd!
:haha: this should settle the dispute... good one BPP...
What it does settle is, that you're one a few who didn't bother reading through the thread. Myself and a few others have commented that the "MEDICAL TEST" Manny underwent 14 days prior to the Hatton fight, was simple blood work. No test for drugs were done, only for infectious diseases, i.e, AIDS, Hepatitis, etc!
Golden Boy admits Pacquiao took a blood test two weeks before he crippled Hatton - AND HE TESTED CLEAN. :crucified
It was NOT a drug test, it was a routine "MEDICAL TEST", which tests for AIDS, Hepatitis an other diseases.
I tend to agree. This fight might be easier than the Gatti fight
+1
Manny is a brawler, he has yet to face a boxer, JMM was a brawler with decent counter punching. JMM had great success against Manny. Manny's problem is, he loops his punches, he also ducks his head while throwing punches, lunges in and drops his right hand. The check-hook will be there all night long.
