Comments Thread For: Pacquiao: If I Hurt Mayweather, I Will Finish Him

[SmoothMon]

I completely agree, this will frustrate Manny and we all have seen the mistakes Manny makes when he's frustrated, one of the biggest mistakes that I see him make when he gets frustrated is he tunes Freddie out and does not follow the instructions of his corner, same thing Shane did, same thing Marquez did, same thing all the fighters that have faced Floyd have done.

I like Manny a lot. I think he's a beast. But if Floyd lands the jab, its gonna get durty. If Floyd stands in front of Pac like he did Mosley, it gets even uglier. Great bout but I see Mayweather exposing Pac if he doesn't take him out early.

funny, manny steward always says he's impressed with pac's balance ever since pac fought at 135 lbs.

Pull. I think Manny Steward is impressed by Pac's balance because he sees that it is not fundamentally sound Boxing wise, but none of the fighters that Pac has faced have been able to really take advantage of it, so Emanuel gets impressed by it. As you know most of the fighters that Pac faces are straight forward fighters, who cannot capitolize off of that particular mistake. Freddie knows this and takes it into consideration during match making.

Come on Pull, you've been watching Boxing for quite some time now, you know this ****.

manny is a dam good fighter and floyd is a good boxer but i think floyd has too much of a size and reach advantage on manny. but you never know, it could be a good fight. if they were the same size then it would be a hell of a fight. i just dont think manny can deal with the size advantage floyd has. **** floyd looked way bigger than even mosley lol. id still love to see the two get in the ring. hopefully they can find some middle ground on the testing, i can see both their points of view.

I rewatched May vs Mosley. And from what I seen, Mosley couldn't have taken him out at that point. Floyd still head his senses and the only way he would have gotten the TKO is if he could some how gotten floyd to the canvas and had the ref stop the fight. Floyd was rocked he wasn't out on his feet. There's a big difference.

pac shutup and take the tests and make the fight happen. something you didnt do the first time cuz you damn well knew u didnt have enough time to train for floyds style.

The only things that Manny has over Mosley is speed, punching combinations, and movement..

"Pacquiao said. “If I can hit Mayweather like that, I will finish him off. "

If a bullfrog had wings he could fly. What makes Pacquiao think he's a better finisher than Mosley? He would never get Mayweather in the kind of trouble Mosley had him in. Mayweather regrouped real nice and by the end of the round he had Mosley in full retreat firing and landing his own bombs. That's why Mosley shut down the rest of the fight. He couldn't get Floyd out of there and everytime he fired he had stronger fire coming back at him. Manny Steward said that Mayweather could have stopped Shane if he had put more combinations together and I truly do believe that. He let Shane off the hook all night.

Prove it. Its easy for Pac to sit in his chair say "I'll finish him." Unfortunately he's hiding behind random drug testing so he'll never prove it, nor did he ever intend too.

Mayweather's already in his head, checkmate.

Let's be honest here, Mannys balance was HORRIBLE! Its gotten a billion times better. That's why Steward is impressed. I think if they fought, Floyds footwork hand speed and reflexes might due Manny harm. Its just my opinion, but I think Mannys defense and how he sees punches should be worked on in before taking this fight. If Manny had defense or could evade punches better with his offense. He'd beat blue piss out of Floyd..

I like Manny as a Boxer as well. I am however questioning his intentions as well as the intentions of his camp as of late. When I saw the Cotto vs Clottey fight, I told my old lady that they should NOT fight Cotto as he is damaged; you could see that in the Clottey fight. And if I saw it I know that Roach and Pac saw it. They made the fight anyway, AND at a catch-weight when it was unnecessary, as Cotto was a done deal(possibly shot) and never the same after the Margo fight. They saw that Clottey while known for his strength was a hesitant puncher, and if you move on Clottey he keeps his guard up with little to NO punches coming in return, plus he doesn't have one hitter quitter power so no need to worry about getting caught coming in and out.

I completely agree with you. If Pac does the things that he normally does in his fights, Floyd is going to embarass Pac, Freddie, Uncle Bob, and all of Asia(since Pac is the Hero of Asia) for that matter.
