      roach already said it'll be a boring fight because floyd won't engage.

        Void could have it tested. Void should have waited 24 hours before he signed the "TUNE-UP-FIGHT-plus-OVER-HYPE" fight with jmm. what is 24 hours against the almost 2 years layoff ? Prior to the pac-hatton fight, it was rumored that void will have a match with pac but went out.

        Then every time a press con is called, void and his clansmen always utter the name of pac to gain attention when the fight is about jmm and void. and void almost sold out jmm by saying that he can pay jmm to set aside if pac says so. Any how if pac cannot defeat void, then void will chose and wait for pac for his next fight. hopefully since void doesnt do business with legit welter. LoL

          You explained why you think Floyd would beat Manny. I asked you to explain why do you think Manny has superior skills. This you did NOT explain.

            I think Floyd is superior defensively.

            I think Manny is superior offensively.

            Hand speed is fairly equal. Floyd has turned into a 1 or 2 punch fighter who has great defense and holds when the fight gets in close. Not a knock, it works for him and he is great at it. But it takes more brains to do that then it takes skill.

            Manny throws multiple combinations from multiple angles at any given time. His punches are precise and powerful with either hand. He has a knack for being balanced even when he appears off balance.

            Unfortunately Floyds height, length and defensive strategy will nulify Manny's skills and Floyd will probably win the fight. Unless Manny is able to do what I mentioned earlier and that is work the body exclusively for 3/4 rounds and then throw a lot of upper cuts before Floyd can tie him up. The wide hooks will not effect Floyd.

              An overrated fighter like Floyd who barely throws a punch has a chance against a whirlwind fighter like Pac? You guys make me laugh.....He dominated a featherweight by cheating the weights....big deal.

                  ****** floyd fans or non-intelligent fans over rating the actual fight outcome.

                  Pac and Floyd will have to settle it in the ring if Floyd doesn't find another way to call his next fight the day of Pac/Cotto fight. I wouldn't be surprised if that happened.

                    if you ask me this question two years ago i would've said no way.

                    now i believe manny has a good chance of giving mayweather fits. they could be in the same weight class two years ago and i see floyd dominating manny but not anymore. manny has faster foot speed (not better footwork) compare to mayweather and to me that will be the biggest key. mayweather is so good in using his reach advantage that hand speed alone might not get the job done.

                      See i think the bold the is actually gonna be a big,BIG flaw for manny.."punching from weird angles" is what we fans call that and see it as an advantage..however for floyd its more like "leaving your dumass open for me to clock"...with mayweather, specifically his precision, is what's gonna be the difference maker here...manny's punches are precise BUT NOT powerful..
                      he fought an old hatton at a 140 and thats not a fight i would to compare to someone like floyd..even hoya took shot after shot just like diaz dude...

                      floyd is gonna just like marquez [to everyone's shock] is gonna be the aggressor i predict..marquez did it to manny in their fight..manny's simply not the best at fightin backwards lets be honest and floyd will have a ****load of fun doin it aswell..he's gonna seriously hurt pacquiao just to make a point..
