How to set traps for Mayweather

[Jim Jeffries]

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

But then there wouldn't be anything left of Floyd for Pac to fight.

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.

That's a problem. He can't allow Pacquiao to take the early rounds. He needs to win the early rounds AND adjust at the same time. Who is to say Roach doesn't have a plan B or C and possibly come back to take 3 or 4 rounds based on activity. Activity is no **** to fuck around with, especially considering the fact that Pacquiao is active for the full 12 rounds. Take B-Hop vs. Calzaghe for example.

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!!

Pac doesn't have the range of Judah that's where I believe that argument falls apart.

There's light sparring. Sergio doesn't have to punch with much power. It's to better prepare Mayweather's defense for Pacquiao.

Good post King. People forget what Mayweather's greatest weapon is---his mind. His ability to adjust, out think, and predict is what makes him so difficult, nearly impossible. Manny is a programmed robot, a well programmed robot. But at the end of the day I choose brains over braun.

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.

I agree----

Bro dont let Pac dismantling face-first brawlers like Cotto...Hatton and Diaz...fool you.

One thing I'd like to mention is Mayweather's body punching. Mayweather isn't gonna be ****** enough to hit the sides, where Pacquiao's elbows are well tucked in. Best believe Mayweather will go for the mid section. He dropped Bruseles with a shot to the mid section and stopped Mitchell with it. Of course those 2 aren't in Pacquiao's level, not even close. It's a surprise that no one mentioned how ****** Cotto was for not throwing a straight right hand to Pacquiao's mid section when Pacquiao was clearly exposed for that. I'm talking about round 2 by the way.

Just messing with you, Martinez and Judah are probably the only two southpaws he could get around that weight that have Pac's kind of speed.

This would be your best bet:



It works most of the time.
