    Of course life continues, win or loose. This is sport, u win some u lose some.

    The question is what will Floyd do IF he looses this fight?

      myth


      floyd's orthodox technique may be superior, but that' doesn't mean he's the more skilled boxer.

      if floyd falls behind early he will have to catch up. to catch up he's gonna have to throw more punches, thus exposing himself to return fire from pac. If I'm floyd, I want to win the early rounds so that I can run the rest of the fight instead of putting pressure on pac.

      thus, floyd has to fight the perfect fight. floyd's not gonna want to fall behind early.

      it's a myth that pbf will easily outbox pac. remember, cotto ran from pac and lost every round that he was running. you can't run from pac and win in vegas. vegas favors aggression and activity.
      Make sense, nice post!

          lol...

          Floyd relies HEAVILY ON clinching and using his fore arm. So what if Manny was ko'd years ago we are talKing present.

          Throw some combos already and show some SKILL..

            go head and discuss those different categories then sir.

            I mean to say that all Floyd does is pot shot when describing his boxing skills is VERY shallow.

              Its different but to me its far harder for Floyd. Pac is super fast but its all regular speed. People get mad when Senior says that but its true. Pac is fast but its just all rapid punching. Anyone can do that and I think you are going to have hell hitting Floyd with **** like that no matter what speed. Zab is more about timing and throwing darts. Thats harder to defend and thats why he caught Floyd a couple of times. It catches you off guard.

              None of that really matters though because I honestly think that sparring can only do so much. I think speed could win this fight on its own. Some may say that Pac is faster but its truly about your opponents. Floyd has been in the ring with super fast Southpaws like Zab, Chop, and Mitchell while Pac has never ever fought anyone with speed. The fastest guys he's fought are like JMM & Cotto and Floyd is 10x faster than them. You can try to simulate that in training but its not the same and I think that will be a shock to Pac
              Pac is super fast but its all regular speed. What is this?

              How can you say a SUPER BURGER is the same with REGULAR BURGER?

              Pac is fast but its just all rapid punching Is there a SLOW Rapid punching?

              RAPID = FAST

              Saying Floyd is 10x faster the JMM & Cotto is an exaggeration.
              BTW, JMM @ 130 is far more faster than JMM @ 142

                well go watch Hatton/Floyd dELA/fLOYD

                then go watch Pac/hatton Pac/Dela

                landing the right shots with the right game plan and implementing that game plan is skill..

                making tough fights for others look like cake walks for yourself equeal skill believe it or not

                this is boxing.. not tennis

I don't know though I want to see how they both handle each other's speed. We can make predictions all we want but in the end they dont mean squat because anything can happen in the ring. it is good though to chat it up and debate. I am wondering though if Floyd is going to pot shot throughout the fight or pull combos
                  Correct! Let's wait and see come fight night.

                      Dude joined date is irrelevant. I joined BS 2005 but I've been watching boxing since I was a kid.

                      BTW, this is sport, you win some you lose some.
