Pacquiao a Tough Fight For Mayweather, Says Wright

[boojee]

lol at the sensitive *****s getting mad at Winky for saying Pac is a tough fight for Floyd.

[Hitman88]

Floyds resume is weak.. he ducks all the good fighters.. picks washed up or over rated title holders ie Judah, Baldomir and Gatti.. why did anyone even watch the Gatti fight? Who cries after beating Gatti? Floyd is such a fraud.. he struggled against Hatton until the later rounds. Floyd will get his ass busted by Pacquaio. Pacquaio will murder Floyd.

He struggled against Hatton?? What fight were you watching?? Once he made the initial in-fight adjustments, he basically 'mauled the mauler' & put a spanking on him until that check hook had hatton's head bouncing off the ring post. The "split decision" w/ de la hoya was quite misleading. Anyone with an ample amt of boxing knowledge knows mayweather decisively took that fight over from the middle rds on. Do I feel he'll have an 'easy' time w/ Pac?? No, but he has the size, strength, quickness & most importantly the skill set & ring IQ to garner a UD. After watching marquez give Pac fits b/c of his boxing ability, I can't see him outboxing floyd (even though roach has improved his skill set). I simply dont see him being able to hit floyd flush enough to wear him down like he's done everyone else. Outside of say..B-Hop, pbf is the best defensive fighter in the game.

Then everybody wants to talk about resumes. Look, I dont take anything away from pac. He's a tough, strong dynamic fighter but recently he's pretty much fought prev mayweather casaulties already. Diaz wasnt 135's best. De la hoya was wgt drained at 147 (let's be honest) & no longer able to sustain a consistent attack as was shown in the mayweather fight. Hatton was always a bit overrated imo, but his lack of discipline between fights along w/ the spanking he took from floyd has made him suspect against world class opp. After watching the cotto fight, Im wondering just how much he has left after the beating he took from margarito (those loaded wraps did alotta damage) plus the bad cut & punishment he took in the clottey fight which he struggled to win. Add this most recent beatdown and I have to wonder how it's going to impair his ability & fighting style. Don't think freddie roach didnt see these flaws going in. Why the hell do you think he wants a marquez fight at 145 instead of 140..because he saw that marquez isnt the same fighter he is at 135-140 as was evidenced in the mayweather fight.

If the fight gets made (and it will b/c both these dudes love money as do their promoters & hbo), there won't be any excuses..there won't be any advantages to be had b/c mayweather is too smart to take a fight @ a wgt where he wont be optimal. Both fighters train hard, both are still in their primes (though manny has taken more punishment in his career) & at the top of their games. My sensibility tells me that floyd wins the decision mainly b/c I've never seen anyone able to consistenly hit floyd or impose their will on him over the course of 12 rds. He's not going to stand toe to toe b/c that's not his style. Manny will have to outbox the purest boxer of this decade in order to garner a decision. I'm not saying it can't be done but that's a very tall order. Mayweather may pop alotta -ish but dont get it f'd up..He WILL train his azz off for this bout & WILL be prepared b/c the only thing he cherishes more than fam & riches is preserving that 0. Let's get those contracts signed

this statement goes both ways.

will be a great fight. manny has added extras to his fight and floyd is the skilled phenom. will be a great fight. good for boxing

[shabs]

What makes you guys think FLOYD is on another level? Who's the one C level opponent he beat to support your claim? The truth is, we don't know how GREAT FLOYD REALLY IS? Do we? He's a really GOOD fighter but the WHITAKERS, RAY LEONARDS, ALI'S, he's not. He's never been knocked down, cut, defeated, because he hasn't been fighting the best like he claims. He's in denial about the level of opposition he's faced his whole career. Had he been fighting A level fighters, he wouldn't be undefeated and that's a fact. He may beat MANNY, he may not but he has a very small window to win over us REAL boxing fans by facing all the top welter's we don't think he would beat. RIGHT OR WRONG?

u a clown according to ur post then id say manny has only fought one good fighter and thats cotto cuz if dlh and hatton were **** on floyds resume then they must be **** on mannys to

[Shadow boxer 3]

this will be the toughest fight of floyd's career

[mathed]

Winky prolly lost like a million betting on Cotto to KO PAC

Co-sign that. you really cant make it any more clear than that

[vercingetorix3]

If it were any other person in Manny's corner, I'd pick Floyd to win easily. But Roach is a master of his craft and Manny almost always listens to the game plan, and it works every time.

Freddie can find the few and far between *****s in Floyd's incredible defense, and exploit them with Manny's explosiveness.

I thought that cotto was going to win,but now i see that manny is the ****,i loss 1k on cotto.but manny did have a hard time with cotto and if you saw may vs marquez,,may is so good in fighting that he never gets beat up,like face wise...and judging by may''s last fight..he is more defensive..then ever and he is a counterpuncher and pac had trouble with that in the past.which to me makes me think that may will win,.and also manny said that cotto ran alot and that was a problem,imagine mayweather.pac isn't going to hit mayweather and may is better than marquez in timing.sooo'mayweather vs pacquiao..mayweather is going to win..cotto hit manny hard and you can tell,but cotto wasn't presistant in attacking,but mayweather is when he is hitting you..he grows confidence once he connects...soooo my pick is mayweather by points.....and maybe a rematch!!!!!let me know if you think different...okay........
