    Pac had learn by the teaching of Roach how to stay in balance as he punches, it helped his overall ability. Pac is an athlete and absorbs what he learns.

      I don't buy this, he fought Mayweather with 8 oz gloves and sparring with 16 oz gloves and already is saying that the guy hits harder. Maybe Castillo is tender after all those years of fighting. By the way, injured or not Mayweather did lose the first fight against Castillo. Why do you think there was an immediate matchup

        these two have to fight it could be fight of the century and smash all ppv records seems likley though these two wont fight until the other has lost and then takes the less per cent or when there both past it and want one more big pay day pacs career is more defined than pbf but pac has lost fight were as mayweathers is a perfect 1 this fight is needed mma is catching boxing and unless you got your super fights to get more of the public interested boxing will come a thing of the past hope mayweathe dosent hand pick his fighters then calls it a day mosley williams pac these are the top guys out there who will have the fans paying by the bucket load to see

          Castillo is no where near prime and this was sparring. Nothing to make a big deal about really. Manny isn't fighting Floyd on the 14th, he is fighting Miguel, so the comparison means nothing. If Manny was about to fight Floyd, then ok.

            I have noticed that too. He adressed that for the first time in his post fight interview with JMM.

              yeah, i agree with roach. its a fighter's ability to wins fights. and speaking of ability, pacquiao has more of it than cotto and mayweather combined.

                      Floyd technical fight game supersede's Pac's 10 times over. Like someone
                      else on this thread had stated, Pac and his team better focus on Cotto.
