    Disappointing post from you, Kev. Consider the entire body of work, the leaps in weight divisions, and the way he did it, not just his last few fights. Pacquiao was already highly regarded before 2008, everything else is just icing on the cake.

      Zab tagged his @ss a number of times with a simple 1-2. It's not about having punch-combinations from A-Z, it's about execution!!

      The right combo-punching/w/ feints, his power, speed and southpaw stance will be his biggest assets in this fight!!

        All he is saying is that Pac style of fighter hes been fighting lately is suited to Pacs style...

        Floyd is a style matchup for him..because he wont be in front of you..and hes not going to trade with you...EVER.

          You have to watch Mayweather vs. Jesus Chavez and JLC. Pacquiao has a right hook that comes from under. I mean, they're nothing like Pacquiao but it's easier for a south paw to land a right. Mayweather may have the height and reach advantage but Pacquiao's foot speed compensate for that.

            One of the things that makes this fight so intriguing is that Pacquiao will be facing his athletic equal/superior for the first time in a long time/ever.

            Marquez/Diaz/Cotto/hatton/DLH just aren't in the same league as Pac when it comes to quickness, fluidity, coordination, etc.

              Pacquiao moves his head alot more, doesn't move in straight lines, has a more improved right hook, more technically sound. Maybe I'm wrong and he'll resort to his old self when faced against Mayweather but I can't go as far as to say this is gonna be easy.

                I know what he was saying, there's no need to explain. His post comes across like he's bitter. We all know Floyd has a different style, but the same goes for both fighters. For starters, who the hell can emulate Pacquiao in sparring? You can't prepare for that ****.

                  Mayweather needs to get Sergio Martinez. That's the best option and I've been saying this for a very long time.

                    Floyd says he thinks on the fly...the sparring he said is just to keep him in shape....When hes in the ring he adjusts...

                    Hes a machine man.there isnt a boxer alive smarter then Floyd in the ring.

                      actually he does move in straight lines still its more of a stacato movement with him floating between his comfort zone and out of an opponents but he still does come straight for the most part.

                      he also follows a ton and doesn't really cut off corners enough for me to say his footwork (as opposed to footspeed) may not be enough to trap Floyd down

                      I still see Mayweather turning and trapping Manny to death on route to an 8-4 type decision
