    This is the reason why it could be a very boring fight despite all the hype.

            The way he always does, footwork and head movement to go along with his speed and the fact he will plain refuse to let Mayweather pot shot him all night.

              This, for me is the biggest stumbling block for him, not the speed and output because he can take it to Floyd in those departments. Maybe Pac's great footspeed will bridge that gap, but IMO, he needs to do that with excellent footwork too.

                yep... im praying that him and freddie come up with a plan for two things

                a) a way around the reach advantage
                b) a way to deal with Floyd tying up every time Pac gets in striking range

                these two must be resolved if they want a W

                    its not really the jab that manny would be worrying about, floyd doesnt use it much

                    his best punch his straight, and he will continue to throw it down the pipe,

                    manny will have a very hard time dealing with floyds straight right hand
