Comments Thread For: Bob Arum on Pacquiao's Win, Floyd Mayweather Talks

[waxfondler]

If you *******s think a guy with no jab, short arms, piss poor defense and limited will beat a elite technician like PBF you're kidding yourself. People like you who don't look at the technical aspects of boxing will forever be left looking ****** in the end. PBF is the best most complete fighter Pac has ever faced. He's juts as fast if not faster and is just as athletic but he's longer and stronger he's also a counter puncher makes few mistakes and is the best defensive fighter of this era combined with a being a ring general with a high IQ. You have a recipe for disaster for Pac but you still don't see it. It amazes me that guys like you can be so blind even when staring in the face of defeat. Historically speaking elite defensive counter punchers like PBF have owned elite aggressive pressure fighters like Pac but I guess that doesn't matter either? Offense sells tickets but defense wins championships and come fight night you'll find this out but by then it will be too late

biased crowd eh? although i would slightly favor floyd over pac if that fight were to happen, i dont understand how people seem to find it so one-sided.... history shows that in-fighters can handle out-fighters with proper approach & tenacity (frazier vs ali)... yes, manny gets hit way too much... and DOES have a size disadvantage, but it doesnt ever seem to be a problem... so no excuses. but to claim he doesnt have a jab? c'mon now... watch the pac/cotto fight again. his jab was pretty active, and he used it to set up 3-4 punch combos... coming from ALL angles. dont let your biases blind you. give the man some credit. his footwork is good too. he darts in & out effectively and bobs & weaves with the best of them. for a "one-dimensional" fighter, manny covers the basics pretty well.

that being said, floyd is a technical genius & is lightyears ahead of manny when it comes to ring IQ & making adjustments. manny tends to be a throw-back prideful fighter (which gets him in trouble)... floyd always keeps his cool and keeps thinking. we already see what happens when floyd opens up... he gets rocked. floyds biggest weapon is the pull counter, he makes his opponents hesitate & abandon their jab... he basically does it the WHOLE fight... he waits far a jab, leans back, then fires his straight, then ducks out of harms way of a retaliating punch.... wash, rinse, repeat... we've seen countless times, his opponents seem to "give up" and drop their punch output. somehow i dont see that happening with manny... he seems to be stubborn enough and foolish enough to keep throwing. its just a matter of how floyd deals with the pressure and punch output... and whether floyd will open himself enough to exploit manny's gaps between combos... i think its fair to say that floyd has NEVER been in a ring with a fighter as dynamic as manny. and manny has NEVER dealt with a cerebral boxer who perfected counter-punching as floyd.... it all comes down to who's will is stronger.

You got that one off cause that's exactly what Bob's plan is.

LOL. somehow, i feel arum & schaeffer is sitting back throwing press releases at each other while laughing & holding hands, and all of us are EATING IT UP.

optimist in me sees the fight happening eventually... pure genius on team mayweathers part because they walk away from this unharmed while everyone believes floyd is "cleaning up the sport". lets hope floyd takes the manny route and has 2 fights this year.... "retiring" would be a waste of his prime. time for floyd to go after the record books.

the Pretty One has no chance, in a bout with Pac....

[jetgeomcx]

manny said he wants another fyt, his last.
he wants floyd but anybody will do for him.
he myt try another belt against yuri-cotto if floyd doesnt happen.
8th division title is so tempting.....
