How can Pac really beat PBF?

[THE REED]

Pac's explosiveness and unorthodox style will be vital... if Floyd struggles to adapt, then he can win.

Yeah, Floyd likes to watch you and anticipate what you will do so he can defend it.

Pac throws unorthodox punches from an unorthodox stance, he doesn't telegraph and his hand speed is just the same as Floyds... Floyd will be strained to anticipate and defend Pacs punches before they land.

Also Floyd doesn't get tired... and neither does Pacquiao, he also doesn't get discouraged too easily.

pac can, by using "smart" pressure, by on the upside of floyd's very slick boxing skills.

floyd is very slick, and, his craftiness is really what he relies on most. whereas pac, he can box and go toe to toe.

pac, by virtue of simply being explosive while being crafty, can turn a 50-50 fight with floyd into a victory for himself. pbf just doesnt pose that kind of danger as pacquiao does.

and, honestly, unless you acually like *******s you wouldnt root for floyd anyways.

Lets not get all emo and bipolar in this thread, for once in boxingscene history...


How can people say Pac is gonna "easily" beat Floyd just because what he's done in his last 3 fights


Look at Pac's opponents, NO DEFENCE to save their a$$. Oscar had no muscle on him, Hatton left his chin exposed, and Cotto's defence is very inconsistent and mediocre at best. How is PAc gonna get through the best defensive fighter out there right now? Pac's last 3 fights have been fighters who are TAILER MADE to get Knocked the fu'k out by his style, what about when he fights someone with speed and defence?



Pacman even said he wanted Cotto cuz he saw flaws in his defence

The "Pacman-Machine" will be turned onto "grind" and we all know what will happen to poor Pretty Boy next. JAT

Wait did you just say Cotto has No Defence, then go on to say its inconsistent? Sure Pac saw flaws in his defense, flaws only he (so far) was really able to penetrate. Zab was able to penetrate PBF's defense, but not Cottos?!?

Pac's style is hard to defend against. If you are trained to counter certain punches being thrown in orthodox manner over decades your muscles remember how to defend against those punches. When someone comes along with the speed and an unorthodox manner that Pac does, all those decades of defensive training can actually be a hindrance as your body will by trying to block one way while the punches are coming another.

I'm sure Floyd will adjust to an extent but to think he'll not get hit is just as rediculous as the thought that Pac will walk through anything/everything PBF throws at him.
