Floyd's punch output enough to beat Pac?

[Doctor_Tenma]

No. Floyd's punch output is not enough to beat Pacman. We are talking about a speedy guy who throws more than 100 punches a round. Floyd doesn't even come close to Pacquiao's punch output.

What was Pacquiao's output in the 1st and 2nd fight against JMM? because I'm sure we're gonna see that type of an output

you can throw 100 punches a round but if only 15 land you aint doing ****

He did the same against Corrales, people don't know how effective the jab to the body can be. It can really break down an opponent, once Pacquiao has lost some steam, Mayweather is gonna go for the kill but not like an idiot, he'll do it with a Winky Type shell, like in the Zab fight.

Good point with the Corrales fight, although the style/speed of Pac is apples & oranges. It would be interesting to see If Floyd could use the same plan vs. a much more elusive target...just one of the many intangibles of this fight.

pacman wont be swinging alot with floyd..if he does it'll be an early night ..cause floyd will ko pacman with a counter

Hmmm...that's possible, but I can't see Pac not being Pac. He'll throw n throw, if he gets countered he'll still throw (morales,marqeuz) but youre right if he gets countered on a 1 punch ko it's over. I think pac as much a chance as Floyd at this though...

Hey, the question was about output. Not will it be effective.

That's another factor in this fight. How much will Pac's accuracy diminish vs. Floyd? I think it would have to be substantial, but at the end of the day if he makes any sort of contact that may appear clean the crowd will go nuts...

Agreed 100%, but the fact that it wasn't...doesn't that concern you a bit? It just seems like people are wanting to see Floyd get his first L more & more. That's the only explanation I can fathom for Oscar getting 1 scorecard in his favour, and Oscar didn't do anything! I think Manny can make a more compelling/closer fight that Oscar did, which is why I can't see Floyd getting the nod in a close fight here. He has to KO to win, or very clearly outclass Pac which is no easy task.

you're right... pbf's gonna have to impress... on the other hand, i think he's up to the task... plus, the dlh thing was also for cinco de mayo... they might not have the mindset of screwing pbf, especially if he stops jmm or clearly outclasses him where pac struggled...

Yeah, I expect to see Floyd use the "Jab to the body" ALOT. Land the right and then clinch right after. Pacquiao can be a very elusive target, not on the offensive though, JMM has proven that. Mayweather isn't gonna open up, he'll wait, difference is, Mayweather doesn't care about putting on a good show. Mayweather will be patient and wait for Pacquiao, then counter.

i agree with this, except i think pbf will duck and roll after landing the right instead of clinching...

Good points, that's what we need to see. Is he up to the task & willing to let his hands go more than he has in the last few years?
