        Well, Burner. You do know that Pacquiao is a tactical genius in the ring right? He ducked under Cotto's jab and threw a straight which stiffened up Cotto and he countered Hatton's chin up, gloves down, lopping right hook with a left hook that khtfo. So Pacquiao of course is a very technical offensive fighter.....................

          Pacquiao has the advantage. is face first style will give an accurate fast fighter like Floyd fits.

            pac has a tougher style because he's southpaw. that automatically gives him an advantage.

            but floyd is a big WW. he outmuscled molsey last sat

              If Marquez (who is a counter-puncher) gave him HELL in both fights..imagine what Floyd can do to him, knowing that he's 10x faster than JMM and has a longer reach than JMM.
              I think this is so wrong. Marquez fights NOTHING like Floyd. The only similarity is that they both counter punch, but the way they counter punch is so completely different.

              I don't think either style has an advantage over the other. Floyd's defensive skill and Pacquiao's offensive skill cancel each other out.

                I think Pacquiao actually has the physical advantages necessary to trouble Floyd - power, speed, southpaw, volume puncher, quick feet.

                But he just lacks the technique and thinking power to win.

                  Pacquiao's blinding flurry of punches over Floyd's swift one shot punches.
                  FLoyd's defense over Pac's offense.
                  Pac's relentlessness over Floyd's adaptability.

                  Floyd won convincingly over Shane, but this is now Pacquiao!

                    COUNTERPUNCHING!! Once Pac didn't get jmm out of there it was trouble. If pac don't take money out he is in trouble.

                    Like Manny steward said after the fight, "if you can't hit a guy"!!
