I'm sure you have watched Floyd fight too many times to know he makes people miss by a mile.He makes it look so good defending that people stand up in adulation.If you watched even his last fight you should have seen the likes of P Diddy standing in ovation when Floyd was defending.Those judges will be ring side so the screaming Pinoys on nosebleed seats (because people in that section dont have a clear view)will not have an effect on judges.Comment

It could be not because of the points but because he is use to that pace and PBF isn't.
We know that Pac can throw leather all day and still be in good shape. However, we don't know if PBF, who if forced to constantly trade, can keep up that pace. Now I know PBF's stamina has never been questioned but when was the last time he had to really fight for 3 minutes? He usually dictates a slower pace with his skill.Comment

People forget that Pac is the one moving up. They tested 145 out and Roach's team believe he is capable at 147 from the Cotto fight. I believe that he can be even stronger at 147 and maintain the speed by not having to worry too much about draining.
It will be a hard task for Pac to beat someone who is physically as great as him. They are both quite awesome athletes and are better at certain things.
Both have stamina, but Pac throws a hell of a lot of accurate punches from both angles considering the speed. Mayweather can read a lot of people, but Pac has a rhythm that isn't easy to stop, and with his speed, even Myaweather can't stop all the punches getting through because he won't be able to see all the shots. The issue now is, what will May throw in return.
Pac has definitely changed. He has a right hand that is potent but also he darts a lot more. He use to be a person who goees forward and forward thinking he is the bigger man, and that played into someone like Marquez.
Roach knows that Pac has to be offensive but also that he has to get out of range. 2 or 3 good spurts can win a round if he makes sure that every other encoutner is equal.
Workrate will be the key to this. No one will get a KO. If Pac is fast enough and throws enough to get through that defence, then May has to pull out some **** that we havent seen in a while to win.
That being said, a May that has to be aggressive will make this fight damn fun.Last edited by PensionKiller; 12-22-2009, 04:41 AM.Comment

Floyd hasn't fought anyone recently with his speed. At that level you can't see shots, and I know May is great at reading shots and seeing them, but his reaction won't be enough. Manny has a fast left that he uses rather than his jab. It will have to be a right hand that puts him down, but he has so manny shots that you can't read him at all live like a Hatton.Comment

The difference is that Marquez didnt just counterpunch Pacquiao. Marquez beat Pacquiao to the punch as well.
Mayweather might jab 1st but other than that he literally doesnt throw anything unless he's sure it's gonna land. Meaning he will wait for Pacquiao to throw 1st.Comment

Floyd will be forced to defend most of the rounds
unless he decides to let go of his hands
Pac ain't dumb to let Floyd potshot him all nightComment
