Mayweather is Easier For Pacquiao Than Cotto or Mosley?

Your not correct because Vernon Forrest dropped MosleyFloyd is the easiest option. He is the most conservative, has problems with speed, and will be on the defensive most of the fight.
Cotto, you have to deal with a type of power Pacquiao has never seen before, and vicious body shots that would send Pacquiao's thin core across the arena. Mosley, you have to deal with a speedy puncher with a killer instinct, finishing power and a very strong chin. If I am correct, I believe that Mosley has never been downed before.
Mayweather is definately the easiest opponent out of the three. Does that mean Pacquiao will beat him easily, no. However, it does mean he is the runt of the litter, out of the three.
in their first pro fight. & how is Mayweather the easiest
when he barely gets hit and is the best counter puncher
and insanely accurate in the sport of boxing? Plus his
defense is compared to none. Mosley nor Cotto has
better timing than Floyd and on top of that Mosley can
be out boxed.Comment

ARE YOU CRAZY MAKING A STATEMENT LIKE THIS?
You made me go all caps lock on you for that one.
Fact of the matter is that Floyd has a style for whatever
guy he is fighting......Have you seen, Corley, Ndou, Chavez,
Bruseles? Man, Baldomir and De La Hoya is not Floyd's
career. Floyd fights very good on the outside but he is
also a very accurate and strong inside fighter and I think
people underestimate Floyd's durability because the few
times he has been hit he has handled himself well and
stayed on his game.Comment

I can't argue with the fact that Mayweather is an easier fight for Pacquiao than Cotto or Mosley, it doesn't mean there better than him though nor does it mean Pacquiao definitely beats Mayweather.
Pacquiao weighs around 148 on fight night, and in Floyd's fights he has been the same, Cotto and Mosley will weight 155+ on fight night and so they will outweigh him and be stronger for Pacquiao.
Pacquiao has an aggressive style like Mosley and Cotto, to face them two who are heavier than him and a lot stronger than him he will struggle with the strength and power because Mosley and Cotto have moving forwards styles too.
Mayweather is more defensive, so when Pacquiao moves forward there is a great possibility that Mayweather stays on the defensive and tries to counter punch, so he will not be standing toe to toe against some one much heavier like he would be against Cotto or Mosley (sort of).
This doesn't mean Pacquiao beats Mayweather, or Cotto and Mosley beat Mayweather, and exactly the same for the other way round... it basically means that styles make fights and Floyd is smaller than Cotto and Mosley and should weigh less than them on fight night (unless his body changed through lay-off), so they will be more fairly matched up and Pacquiao wont have somebody 7 pounds heavier at least bullying him around the ring. It wouldn't be an easy fight for either Pacquiao or Mayweather, but it would be an easier fight for Pacquiao than it would be against Mosley or Cotto.Last edited by Spacey1991; 05-29-2009, 06:08 PM.Comment

Then fight JWW...why fight WW's? ....isn't he P4P king?He fought oscar @ 142. Thats his weigh in. If u fight at welterweight u fight at 147. 142 was his weight. Did u hear freddie say Pacquiao is the best welterweight in the world & we are campaining at 147?
No. The fight was made because of oscar. Not to be the best 147 pounder in the world or fight at 147. It was a one time deal.
So its so unfair for a former 112 pound champion who stated his career at 106lbs to ask full fledged welterweight to meet him halfway at 143 or 144?
Who's being the ***** here?Comment

No one has claimed they'd be easy for Pac. He's a natural Jnr Welterweight, and his fight at 147 was effectively a catchweight fight because De La Hoya was coming down from 154. He has never pretended that he was a natural Welterweight, and Roach said immediately after the De La Hoya fight that his highest peak weight is 140. He's been consistent about that ever since. And against Hatton he weighed in 2lb under the limit.Comment
