Say Pac vs. Floyd does happen...

[stickandmove12]

....does Floyd's defensive style match up with Manny being a southpaw. How well does he do against lefty's? Has he faced anybody with pacman's speed that's a southpaw?

[The Gambler1981]

Judah, Sharmba Mitchell and DeMarcus Corley (he was pretty good at the time he faced Floyd) are the southpaws that Mayweather has faced. I would not really call any of them slow except Sharmba was pretty shop worn by the time he fought Floyd. None of them are really like Pacman though so it is tough to say, Floyd could not fight Pacman like he fights most right handed fighters (he could not lay on the ropes for sure). Of all the people Floyd fought though the 2 guys that really caught Floyd are southpaws, keep in mind though he got cuaght nicely in both the Corley and Judah fights but that it really only happeaned once in each fight (it was not some on going thing).

I think Manny would be able to hit Floyd nicely atleast a few times, I just think that Floyd would make it tactical enough so that is does not happean repeatedly.

Jesus Christ, you've got to be kidding me

Zab Judah is the fastest fighter in the world and Floyd handled him after breaking him down. Judah is also bigger than Floyd.

Floyd has been mostly about doing the least offensive work with defense being top priority. We haven't Floyd really have to work or excert a lot of energy offensively or in countering like he would against Pacquiao.

Hatton is a firecracker who does his best work inside. His strategy is to invade personal space to go to work where as Pacquiao is a firecracker who works on the outside and has only become more versatile in his recent fights. It would be harder to counter someone who sticks and moves rather than someone who just sticks and stays like Hatton.

I think Mayweather would beat Pacquiao, but I see nothing "easy" about the win. Floyd is quick, but don't really know if he's quicker than Pacquiao. Would he be able to counter CONSTANT quickness? It doesnt matter how FAST or QUICK you are when it comes to fighting Floyd, what matters is how you use that quickness. Judah is quick, but more strategic and patient. I think Floyd would have more trouble with constant agressive output from an opponent than strategical, slow paced, QUICK output. Pacquiao is frenetically controlled with his agression now. This is a fight where Mayweather would have to increase his punch output to keep Pacquiao at bay.

It would be interesting to see how it plays out.

I think it would be a really good fight, that has a lot of interesting angles. It is a fight I want to see, for a lot of reasons but I think it could be a very exciting fight which in a fight of this magnitude can be very good for boxing as a whole.
