    We all know Zab sucks after the first few rounds. Can you imagine what would have happened if Zab was mentally sharp the whole way and could adjust?
    Again dude, he didnt shut down. Floyd just figured him out. Thats it. You act like Floyd is a bum or not smart. The Southpaw style threw him off but he figured him out after 4 rounds and Zab never won another. Ive always said that there are only 2 ways to beat Floyd. You have to be so big that Floyd cant do anything but run & pot shot or you have to be a Southpaw and catch him with something. Pac could certainly catch him with something because he is a Southpaw but dont take that as Pac having a bad style for him. Floyd has only been rocked by Southpaws but he also pretty much dominated all of them. He shutout Mitchell before stopping him, he only lost 1 round at the most against Chop despite getting buzzed some, and Zab never won a round after the 4th. No doubt they are the only one's to basicaly ever hit him clean but its not like they had great success an Ill say it again, all 3 of those guys are not better than Pac but they are all slicker so I also think that helped them land. Again though, look at Pac vs JMM. You think Floyd has no chance of doing that to him? Its the same thing

        Mayweather had a hard time against Judah and has been rocked hard by Corley. Both are southpaws with good right hooks and left hands.

        Manny is a southpaw, is fast and is a pressure fighter.
        Judah won 2 rds...because Mayweather didnt throw punches....after rd 2..judah got dominated...

          Damn all of that and Pacquiao still won't beat Mayweather. That's how good Mayweather is.

            He doesnt need to hurt Pac, See the thing with Mayweather is he doesnt hit very hard but he is very very accurate puncher, thats why even with not having much power he usually snaps guys heads back.

If he squares up on Pac it will be over very soon, if Cotto couldn't hurt or slow down Pac what makes you think Mayweather will?. So what can Floyd actually do? Run around the ring and expect to win a unanimous decision? Nope that ain't happening either.
                a non stop whirlwind of offense will only lead to getting countered all night...good thing you arent in Pac's corner

                    If you want to bring up old fights then what about Manny being outboxed twice against a counter puncher like Marquez? at least Floyd adapted against the southpaws he faced, it was evident that Manny didn't learn his lesson from the first fight he had with Marquez.

                    Furthermore Manny hasn't faced a fast, slick boxer with movement in his WHOLE CAREER!!, that's a fact.

                      Wrong. Pac CAN hurt Mayweather. Pac's fist will find Mayweathers face more than just a few times. If Zab can do it, Pac can do it.
