      Floyd took his time with Sharmba...Sharmba didn't stand a chance...

      And we all know Judah is a frontrunner...Floyd didn't get started really til the 4th Round...

      Thes fights aren't that meaningful IMO, Floyd is probably better with southpaws now, and he isn't the same fighter...

        Pacs biggest asset against Floyd is being a southpaw. When Floyd faces SP fighters hes more available to be hit and if he doesnt up his workrate he will lose. There is no possible way he beats Pac throwing 30 punches a round, its impossible.

          Call me crazy but Pac's workrate will be lowered by Floyd...whether its by Floyd's movement or by Floyd hitting him with some solid shots...

          Floyd can hurt you if you don't see the punch coming...and Pac can deff be hit...

          I'm sure Roach feels they can outwork Floyd...but if they think they can bully Floyd around the ring they've got another thing coming...

            no ceilings how do you think floyd will win, I have always thought that floyd would beat pac if they meet but I was having this discussion the other night and a few interesting points were brought up..
            floyd will have to completely change his style to fight pac,pac throws alot of punches and goes the full 12 rounds and yes he does get hit but he seems to be walking tru punches at the moment..what way you tink floyd will fight and do you agree/disagree with this assumption?
            Will this leave gaps in floyd's defence?

            Also pac is going to get hit very cleanly alot in this fight BUT mayweather does not throw enough punches in his combo's to completely stop pac,I think these are the things which makes this fight so intriuging,how they adapt to eachother....
            do you think floyd can win this fight potshotting???
            I thought he would but im beginning to have doubt's,even if floyd lands the cleaner punches that pac could be given a few rounds on workrate alone.......
            anyway just interested in your opinions on this...

              Floyd will have to throw more punches. He doesnt have the power at 147 to gain his opponents respect. He wasn't able to keep Hatton or Marquez from coming forward and Cotto is a harder puncher than May is. If Floyd is able to keep up his offense I think he gets Pac too, but hes going to have to throw more or hes fucked.

                Of course he will...Marquez and Hatton don't fight like Pacquiao tho...Floyd was able to tire Hatton out and those straight right hands killed him...Marquez wasn't a contest from the first round on...

                Floyd has far better accuracy than Cotto...

                Pac's workrate looks unstoppable at times but it can deff be reduced by the right opponent...

                I'm not saying Pac can't beat Floyd but I think Floyd can slowly pick him apart and take advantage of his mistakes...

                  Clottey is not good, or a counter puncher.
                  Clottey would give Paul Williams a run for his money. Do not say Clottey is not good. I think Floyd would shutout Pac. And yes, he was a beast at 130.

                    Im just saying that throwing the number of punches he threw against either of them won't be enough to keep Pac off him. I think Floyd is the better fighter of the two, its heart and determination that seem to be in Mannys favor. I've been picking Floyd since before the Cotto fight(I thought Cotto would be able to hurt Pac), but have got it more even now. Floyd can most definitely beat Pac, but not if he doesnt throw more punches.

                      the major thing i think that will influence the fight is that floyd CAN fight for 12 rounds he is supremly conditioned (much like pacquiao) thats the main reason i am leaning towards pbf because i believe he will be able to execute a game plan from rounds 1-12 might be wrong be thats what i think.
