Floyd's punch output enough to beat Pac?

[sandyvahra]

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.

It's a good analysis. This might come down to how many clinches Mayweather initiates as well. Warnings? What type of referee we're going to have, etc. The X factors for this fight are mindboggling.

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

Then again, Pacquiao is similar to Judah. Judah gave Floyd **** loads of problems until Judah went ******ed. Thing is, when have you seen Pacquiao not fight the way he wants to fight? Sometimes his style gets him in trouble but he always throws punches in bunches.

Floyd will have a tough time fighting someone like Pacquiao.

How will Pacquiao react to Mayweather's elbow/ forearm in his face?

Co-sign, Neither guy has fought a fighter quite like the other or been matched up vs. a similary style I think if anything Manny has a closer experience to fighting Floyd than vice verse based on the couter punching style of JMM, but it ends there.

Another factor which the referee may play a part in. Floyd's good with getting away with that, what happens if he gets warned?

[phoneboothboxer]

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?

he'll have to be... otherwise he could lose a fight that comes down to the main point of this thread, punch output... people forget about pbf's defense tho, and pac beat up a dlh who spread himself thin and a ricky hatton who... well...

Difference is, Pacquiao needs to get close. Mayweather isn't gonna stand there like Hatton/ David Diaz/ DLH or EVEN JMM, Pacquiao isn't gonna be able to sneak in that left straight. One thing, Judah is faster and stronger then Pacquiao, also has an uppercut that gets everyone's respect. Pacquiao doesn't have Judah's left straight, Judah could land it from a mile away. Difference there but people will disagree with that, already know

Nah. Mayweather will stand there at times, but he wont be a punching bag like Hatton/diaz/ and dlh. Mainly because he fights in the pocket, he likes to use the shoulder roll.
