If Manny pressures FMJ he will win.

[Blue Heffner]

De La Hoya, Castillo, Chavez, and Hatton all tried to apply pressure and failed. Manny is alot better than they are at this point against Mayweather. But Floyd has seen this over and over, I'm sure he can handle pressure well. I think Floyd is anticipating that Manny will be aggressive and attack. So I don't think the pressure tactic is a smart one.

I been saying this for awhile. His ACTIVITTTTTY RAAAAAATTTTEEEE! I'm like so 100% in Manny winning this fight more than his last 3. I literally had good reasons his last 3 opponents could beat him. But now, after seeing how he really could deal with a full size welterweight. I have zero problems with Manny facing Floyd. I think Cotto was tougher and although Manny didn't make it look that way, it was the harder of the 2 fights. Floyd can't dodge punches for 12 rounds, he can't trade with Manny at any point, and he can't match Manny's workrate. Manny has this in the bag! And I swear, if Floyd tries to throw a jab and jog for 12 rds, either A.) Manny will be like, F this I aint' chasing no more and stand in the middle like he did to Cotto telling him to f*kin fight already!, or B.) the crowd assaults the ring to slap Floyd in the face for wasting their hard earned money.

You need to be bigger than Floyd to beat him, not more powerful and not have a good chin, you need to be bigger than him to have a chance. Pacquiao is not bigger than Floyd and won't be the bigger man on fight night.

I try to be objective....................but you do have some valid points...........things is pacman seems a bit careless when his opponent back peddles............

[DLT]

that will be great if he get's aggressive, thats a sure way to get his ass taxed.

Yeah, being aggressive will get Floyd's ass taxed but Pac wont get taxed for being aggressive against the fastest man he's ever faced, the smartest man he's ever faced, the best defensive fighter in history, the best technician in the sport, the best counter puncher in the game, and the most accurate puncher in the history of the sport? Yeah, Pac is not going to get taxed pressuring that?

easy there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pacquiao has the strength of Hatton, the speed of Judah and the workate of Castillo. As long as Pacquiao offensively assaults Mayweather for 12 rounds he's got it in the bag. Non of this "controlled ring generalship" - A guy like Pacquiao isn't going to be blinking every time Mayweather feints, nor is he going to sit his ass down in the middle of the ring and Let Floyd touch his belly with his jab.

Dude that's just utter blasphemy! Pac is country-mile ahead of Hatton in the strength department, some nautical miles ahead of Judah in speed, and light-years ahead of Castillo in work rate! You're smoking some on my sig aren't you?

[AFTER HOURS]

easy there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

having small heart will give you a defensive skills

lets just see if floyds reflexes adopts to pac's hand speed...

A southpaw who doesn't give Floyd any room will simple mess him up. He can't shoulder roll a straight left. If Pacquiao makes him fight all night Floyd will lose, nuff said.

I don't think Floyd can take his punches and I'd be surprised if this fight goes 12 rounds.

my reason being: Judah, a quick southpaw was fuqing him up for the first 5 rounds and it get's labelled as Mayweather adapting. WRONG, it was all Judah fading. He fades in all his fights. Pacquiao doesn't fade, and he's straight up better than Judah. I mean, at least Judah stayed in Floyds comfort zone.

Most Floyd fans won't even read this and will conjure up some jargon explaining to me why i'm wrong, which if I am, will apologize.

I think Floyds only way to win is if he can somehow run and clinch effectively against a man as strong and as skilled Pacquiao.

Good points. A Cottoesque finish to Mayweather is highly probable. The knockout is possible too. I think if Floyd runs away from the Pacman, Manny will win the effective aggression category of the judges scoring on route to an overall victory on the score cards. JAT
