Do you guys actually think Pacquiao will be able to hit Mayweather consistently?

      I don't see Manny having any problems whatsoever.

      Roach is ten times the trainer Yoel is and will develop a solid game plan.


      Floyd won't take the fight though.

      Pacs danger meter just shot through the roof.

      I can gurantee you if Pac fights the way Zab did; he'll lose.

      Floyd walked rings around him after the first 4 rounds..... why?
      Because, Zab couldnt handle Floyd constantly moving to his left and landing those right hands. Floyd showed how to expose a southpaw stance in this fight and Pac will have to keep throwing his right hand each time Floyd moves left.

      Please dont base a Floyd-Pac fight to what happened in the Floyd-Judah fight.

        What makes you think Mayweather will all of a sudden get hit with monster power shots like Hatton?

        If Pac were to beat Mayweather it would be off of activity. Floyd is quality fighter and wouldn't get hit nearly as much.
        I think this fight will be a close fight... they could even make a trilogy.

          I'm not saying you are wrong and I am right. It's just for the sake of explaining myself further.
          Thats Cool. Everybody have their own opinions.

          It would be a tough fight for both. Mayweather would have to move a lot, becqause this time he aint the faster guy. Plus Pac, can match his punching Power.

          Pacquiao throws, fast, hard and in bunches. FLoyd will need to be in great shape, move a lot and counter punch with accuracy. And will have to leave with that. If he stays in the pocket with pacquiao, he gets stomped.

          Floyd needs his A+ game to beat Pacquaio. and if he does it will be a D, he aint Koing Pac, he is not offensive enough to do that.

          I will say Pacquiao UD, or a late TKO, but Mayweather can pull the D also!!!!!!

            lol, thank you!

            Why else would he fight Marquez and announce his comeback on the morning of a Pacquiao fight!

            Doesnt take a genious to work out.

            And it seems funny that the guys that critisized Floyd for thinking about taking on Pac, are now saying he's ducking him, or will duck him!

            What a joke!

              Pac will have to throw his right hand everytime Floyd moves left to keep away from Manny's left hand.

              This truelly will be a great fight.

                  I can't believe some of you guys are dismissing Pac's chances. I saw the JMM fights but Pac doesn't have to fight Floyd like he did JMM. One thing that would concern me if I were Pac/Roach with the countering and maybe even if Floyd decides to attack is that Floyd has a 72 inch reach. I swear Floyd can tie his shoes standing up.
                  So if Pac comes jumping in, Floyd can jump back and still hit Pac coming in.
                  But this is where I say "timing" with Pac will be key since I do think it has gotten better as well as his arsenal of punches now. Plus, he doesn't quite lean in with his head to much like he used to or as sloppy. He still isn't precise, but he isn't what I would call sloppy anymore. He can still get wild but even so, it's still a danger to try to pick him off. Maybe Floyd can do this but I would like to know for sure.

                  And then where is Floyd mentally?
                  What if Pac keeps attacking and that retirement mindset Floyd had going into retirement after he defeated Hatton picks back up?
                  Does Floyd want to win or is he doing it just to pay back bills?
                  Another question I would like answered.
                  People do change and have different mind-sets through life. Where is Floyds?
                  I know where Pac's is.


                  All this makes it interesting to me and why I would watch this fight.


                  I actually didn't see the Judah fight live because I didn't care. Why? becausee I knew Judah would eventually break down mentally because the odds favored that. True, he sometimes can turn back the clock Pre-Tszyu version and stay on a high level, but the odds weren't in his favor agaisnt Floyd. I did eventually see the fight when I was bored.

                    To be honest, I think Mayweather will get beaten for 12 rounds, and Pacquaio might even force a late stoppage. He is something else right now, which I have never seen the like of.

                      Fair enough that's a good thought about the Judah part, but Pacquiao also had troubles with a counter puncher in Marquez, Floyd is a better counter puncher and is harder to hit. Goes two ways, would be a great fight though...
