    Manny has a power advantage but you have to find the target before you can get off, that is not so easy to do when you have an inferior reach and the other guy knows how to use it effectively.

    No excuses, you cant make Pac out to be taller than he is, it would be a very significant factor in a potential fight between the two.

        I just want to see the speed difference between the two. With Floyd using a high guard Manny might be quick enough to peck at him like a demented woodpecker basically steal rounds.

          Anyone who thinks Floyd isn't bigger, taller and faster than Manny is on crack *******.

          The guy was absolutely built to be a boxer.

            Pac is the P4P Number 1 fighter. Hes also in Floyds weight class. So are you discredting the win because hes taller and has a longer reach then Pac? You dont like Floyd...fine. But lets be realistic here man. This dude beat Cotto and Clottey who are BIGGER then Floyd.

In no way am I comparing Clottey to Mayweather but I saw how Pacquiao's combinations backed Clottey up. Mayweather loves using that high guard against southpaws and I could see Pacquiao back him up and then moving away. Of course Mayweather will counter inbetween Pacquiao's combination, which Clottey rarely did. Just looking at how ordinary Pacquiao looked against Cotto; when Cotto decided to move, Mayweather should opt to box. Then walk him down towards the 7th or 8th round. The much safer route is to Box, although I know other Boxing fans who believe Mayweather should instead walk him down.
              I dont think he will walk Manny down, difference between those other Southpaw's and Manny is that they were counter punching lefties who invite contact and take full advantage of the Southpaw stance by making you be the aggressor, Pac gives up the advantage by being so aggressive, Mayweather would sit back and use the stick against him and it would work more effectively because of his reach advantage imo.

                HUH?? pac's been the smaller guy for his last 4 fights and look what happened?. Size don't beat pac at all infact when he is in there with a bigger fighter he is less wreckless and uses his full boxing arsenal. Pac's biggest challenge against floyd is floyd's speed. speed fighters usually struggle when they encounter a guy as fast as themselves because they are faster than everyone else and it catches them off gurad when they see someone as fast.

                    almost everyone that fights manny is bigger than manny, i gave up discrediting manny a long time ago and now i tell people that pacquiao is just very good, him and floyd has to be made, odds should be straight even

                      I think Pac's smaller reach actually won't be that big of a problem. People forget that Pac's legs get him in and out quicker than most other boxers and he'll utilize them to full effect.
