    After watching the fight last night, do you still think that floyd has the power to stop Pac? Manny can take the punches from much bigger opponents, i dont think Floyd can stop him.

      If he can't avoid Pacquiao's punches, he will get owned. And if Pacquiao can't touch him or hurt him, then Pacquiao will lose a decision that alot of people will probably hate.
      stating the obvious really?

      I think it's more to do with how Pac copes with Floyd. I can just see Pac getting frustrated and getting reckless.. Pac leaves himself wide open often, and he's never fought anyone with the precision and timing of may

        Floyd definitely has the power to stop Pac.

        It's not just about power, it's about timing and accuracy. If pac rushes in, and Floyd catches him with a clean shot (which will happen), it could easily be over.

          floyd's biggest advantage really is defense...not power nor speed.
          if this fight happens it's going to be offense vs defense...as simple as that.

            Same with Pac. Accuracy, footwork, stamina, chin, speed and power.

            If Pac do rush in, do you really think Floyd has the power to trouble Pac's chin? Be honest now.

            Margo weight 17 pounds heavier and didn't took Pac down with the uppercut.
            Cotto couldn't really knockdown pack despite being a precise puncher with power.

              after all that excitement Pacs eye gets cut like it did vs Marquez = target practice = confusion = Mosely jitters

                man, i don't think you can compare Cotto with May..

                They're on different planets, and completely different fighters. Margo was heavier, but he hurt Pac with that body shot, and his jab was pushing him back. Besides, as i said, it's not all down to power, Floyd can time shots better than anyone, and Pac's defense was terrible at times...

                He's going to get caught.. and i think May could knock him out.

                And yeah, i agree with you about Pac, May's never fought anyone like him either, the angles, the movement, the change in levels, and more than anything the balance. Watch pac, he can actually land a clean precise shot whilst moving, he doesnt actually need to set himself.

                All i'm saying is that peeps are under-rating May on here.

                  We know Pac can hang with the big boys, to me thats not 'WOW' anymore and I believe Pac can handle Floyds power.

                    pac gets cut = pac keeps brawling = Floyd gets cut = Floyd's face starts to look like Marg's = Roger throws towel

                      Man, I just can't wait for this fight.

                      This is going to be epic. Oh and we both forgot Roach v uncle mayweather lol.

                      Brains will factor into this as well!
