    PBF's counterpunching will keep Manny at bay moreso than any fighter that has faced him. Anything JMM does, PBF does it better, so think about that.

    But theres one other thing we can't overlook, Manny will be definitely the fastest fighter PBF has ever faced as well. (besides Zab Judah, but he doesn't throw in 6 shot lightning fast combinations like Pac does). You can't counterpunch between a combination like that. And Manny moves his head more than a bobblehead, so he won't be a stationary target for PBF's lead right.

      haha some pbcs is definitely in order. I picked mayweather because he will have too much reach and height on pac and the judges love a coward.

        Nope, Cotto still.

          It's a much closer fight than it would've been a few years ago. Pac has improved and has filled out nicely so that Floyd wouldn't have the size advantage he once would've made use of.

          Mayweather is still fast, has a great defense, and is one of the best counterpunchers in the game. Pac has the activity level, tho, to make Mayweather fight more than he'd want to.

          I see the fight going to the scorecards and, depending on the judges (who typically score for aggression rather than effectiveness), it could go either way. I can see PBF winning 7 rounds, tho, and using Manny's aggression against him by tagging him on the way in. I don't think he can KO Mayweather, tho (I mean, if Chico couldn't even buzz him, I don't think Manny will KO him).

            Bob Arum's a ****

            Floyd wins hands down, much more interesting fight now knowing Pacman can seriously crack at that weight n seeing how poorly his opponents handle his speed but Pac's still the guy who struggled wit a boxer counterpuncher named MARQUEZ and Floyd has better defense, more power, longer reach, bigger size, faster hands, more intelligence, and an overall better boxer than Marquez is, pac's gotta slim chance but i cant see Floyd losing this one...After Floyd destroys Marquez this is the fight that has to happen, Arum needs to put an end to that Cotto bull**** this fight is the only fight that should be in their mind

              I can seriously see Floyd countering Manny with uppercuts on the ropes.

              Floyd beats him and anyone who thinks Manny ko's Floyd with one punch is seriously ******.

              But i can see Manny hurting him, Pacquaio has some serious power. His left hands and right uppercuts are crazy.

              If Floyd fights his best game, Manny losses. His defense is to great to get hit like De La Hoya and Hatton did.

                Even after Pac beat DLH, I still felt Floyd would fairly dominate Pac because as most people thought - Pac hadn't truly been tested against a legit fighter above 130.

                Stylewise, I really wasn't sure either. If a sharp counterpuncher and technician like JMM gave Pac that much trouble, what would PBF (who is superior in every skillset over JMM) do to Pac?

                I guess I was still uncertain as to how Pac would hold up against a true 140+ pound fighter in terms of pure physicality. After seeing him beat Hatton I think I have changed my mind.

                Most surprisingly, I thought that even if Pac were to win, he would still get pushed around physically by the bigger and stronger Hatton. The fact that he didn't was the one thing that caught my eye that fight, and the impeccable timing on those right hooks. Manny can counterpunch too now? I don't like PBF's chances anymore.

                Who do you guys pick?
                Every one keeps comparing Pac to the boxer he was when he fought Marquez. Manny is a complete boxer now and is much more slicker now than he was then. He fights smart not like a brawler.

                  Hatton was complete and utter garbage last night, Floyd imo would beat pac, as i STILL don't think Pac has been tested.
