I remember castillos pressure, and Pac doesnt do anything that castillo did in his prime. Castillio imposed his size, and his will, not to mention he fought him in the phonebooth. That is NOT what pac is going to do, let alone having the ability to cut the ring off. Castillo was a huge 135lber, on fight night he was huge. That is NOT how pac would fight him at all.
When floyd says "one demensional" i know exactly what he means, come read

....lol @ hattons left hook. Come on man. Thats the same left that Mayweather saw 6 feet away before he threw him into that tecate post. You honestly going to tell me hatton/Dlh WERENT stationary targets? When cotto moved, what did pac do other than wait for him to slow down?Comment

Good post, I couldn't have said it better myself. I don't know why I can't green k you if it was already over a month from the last time i did. Unlimited karma should be brought back.Comment

You know mayweather very well judging by youre previous post. one thing you have to agree with, in the ring, he has alot of heart and he doesnt give up. if hes behind, he will not back down. he didint against castillo in the late rounds (when he went toe to toe in the 11th by leaning right on him) and didint against chavez like you mentioned. Id like nothing more than to see that mayweather come out again. Nobody can argue that in the ring mayweather just throws his hands in the air and gives up, that guy will do whatever it takes to win if hes behind.
Cheers.
He does have heart but i also think his mentality makes fights closer than they need to be. If he got out of his envelope more often some of those fights would not have been close imo. He mainly gets out of his envelope when he has to and im thinking that there are times when he might have left it to late, most notably Castillo.
I would say the reason for that is that Mayweather enjoys putting on a defensive clinic like other people like putting on offensive displays. IMO he enjoys making you miss & countering more so than knocking you out, that is why some guys are better offensively than they are defensively, its whats in your head/heart to do.Comment

When Cotto used his jab I saw Manny's head getting snapped back I will tell you that much. When Cotto moved Manny caught up to him and put pressure on him. Manny fought the fight he needed to to beat Cotto and make it look easy too. As for the fight with FMJ Manny has lots of tools and his biggest tool is his heart. I always said you cannot measure the size of a fighters heart....Lefty
Remember when manny threw his arms in the air in frustration when cotto circled and just threw his jab and didint engage? thats what im saying is alarming.Comment

Also would like to point out im not hatin on mayweather. hes nasty. but if i never hear another dumbass comment by him again it would be to soon. with that said he completey dominated the last person that actually gave manny a run for his money. yeah marqez was slowed a little bit from the extra weight he had to gain, but floyd showed his skills.Comment

Good post bro! i like manny i think he's a great fighter can't take that away from him. i've been watching boxing for a long time and i can tell you this styles make's fights. everybody manny have been fighting is a stationary fighter don't have great movement except for marquez who gave manny problem because he can box. mayweather is not going to take crazy chances people have to realize that pbf is a very smart fighter he can adjust in the ring not saying manny can't just haven't saw him do it. when cotto was keeping that jab out there i said if he can keep doing that he have a chance to win, but once he let his ego get the best of him and decided to slug it out that manny games he's punches are too quick he will catch you before you catch him and once he hit you it's goodnight baby. manny have never fought a fighter who's defense is that good and move that good he will get frustrated and that when mayweather will knock him out. not a good fight for manny at all.i'm a big fan of both so it's no hating here just real talkComment

Manny caught up to him because cotto slowed down, at the point where cotto got on his bike, he was in survival mode and simply couldnt keep it up the whole fight. Its not like manny simply cut the ring off and imposed his size and unloaded, hell no. Manny WAITED until he slowed up and cotto still thinking he could hurt him, continued to exchanged THATS when he caught up to him.
