Floyd's defense wont work against Pac.

Floyd has the speed and more importantly the reflexes and instinct to stay out of Pac's range imo. He may get troubled by Pac's workrate, but I seriously doubt Pac can accumulate enough landed shots to really hurt Floyd. I really dunno who to pick in this fight but I'm almost certain this will come down to a decision. If Floyd lands enough clean counters on a continually engaging Pac he can win even maybe knock him out, but Pac can win purely just on workrate as there is a bias towards aggression when it comes to judging....but if Pac lands a bomb like the one he did against Hatton, dayaum. That would be a *****.Comment

And check out the punches he takes towards the end...
Note: Castillo was a WW by fight-time which you can hear them discussing it on the video (and in his prime)
Start time: 2:45......
Other opponents have also hit him like Oscar
Is he still the same fighter?
We'll see.
It would be interesting if someone tested him and they probably should.Comment

like floyd said, box him in circles, he can confuse pacquiao for a few rounds using his jabs and making pacquiao miss, and just counter punch and start piking up the pace,
im a floyd hater but for this fight in particular im rooting for floyd, i do understand pacquiao is unbeatable right now, is an interesting match-up, but i do believe in superior skills and ring generalshipComment

Floyd's defense is his primary weapon, he plays the game of hitting and not getting hit and can get away with potshoting and a low workrate because he rarely gets hit.
However this won't be the case against Pacquiao. Floyd's shoulder roll defense doesn't work against southpaws and he has been able to get away with it until now because he has yet to fight an elite southpaw.
The question is what will Floyd do when Pac begins tagging him like Zab did, Pac wont lose his focus in 4 rounds..he will win the fight.Comment
