You have to consider, marquez is really slow at 144lbs. He was getting tagged by a slower juan diaz at 135lbs, marquez was a lot quicker at 126/130lbs. Imagine if mayweather fought marquez a few years earlier and at 130/135lbs when floyd can still fight at a lower weight, i guess the fight would have been a lot more competetive..
Vs Hatton, Floyd only landed 129 in 10 rounds; Manny landed 73 in two!

you're focusing on the wrong thing... It's Pacquiao's numbers that are going to go down not Floyd's. Fighters against floyd throw considerably less punches fighting floyd than against any of their other opponents. This is because : 1)he is Elusive and 2) his counter-punching ability. Pac Machine will have to rely on his boxing skills to get at floyd not his volume of punchesComment

How about these numbers?
Marquez (who is the same size as Manny) outboxed & outlanded The New and Improved Pacquiao JUST LAST YEAR.....
Pacquiao-Marquez 2
Marquez was 158 of 547 (29%)
Pacquiao was 148 of 639 (23%)
Mayweather-Marquez
Mayweather was 290 of 493 (59%)
Marquez was 69 of 583 (12%).
Being that Mayweather is the best defensive fighter in boxing, has one of the best straight right hands, and isnt a stationary fighter...How will Pac's relenteless work rate be effective when a fighter isnt right in front of him and he is exchanging punches with a fighter who's hand speed is faster, who is taller, who has a longer reach than he has, better combination puncher & is the more accurate puncher

For you geniuses, that's...
Pacquiao - 37 punches per round @ 57%
Mayweather - 13 punches per round @ 39%
And against Oscar, Manny out-landed Floyd, 224 to 207 in only 8 rounds to Floyd's full 12 rounds.
Manny is a buzzsaw the likes of which Floyd has never been in the ring with. Floyd's limited pot shots will not be enough to keep Manny off him. Manny ain't Arturo or Chico (RIP Champs), Manny ain't Ricky and Manny ain't Oscar.
Once Manny starts connecting, and he will, Floyd's chances of winning will be drastically diminished.In over 8k posts, this is your prefight analysis? Pretty pathetic IMO! I'm starting to think half the shyt u and ur gang type is just for shyts and giggles. I must remind myself that u r just another BS character that liters the board with horse shyt daily. Pretty soon u will become like champboxer and co. and go into hiding only occassionaly chiming in with all too common flawed fanatical nonsense.
word to the unwise: when u compare outputs/landing %, u totally take it out of context without adding opponents output/landing%. And this has already been posted on the forum so go find it and educate urself.Comment

I really don't think pacquiao will need to walk through mayweathers punches when he can block them or dodge them. You may be thinking well how because floyd is so fast and accurate. Well amir khan is pacs sparring partner, who is faster and as accurate as floyd. Pacquiao will be sparring with khan for about 11 weeks, therefore he will be well prepared for the speed. The constant + smart pressuring of pacquiao with blitzering, powerful combo punches = too much for floyd.Comment
