    He'll be throwing and landing his one or two punches at a time and getting outworked. What, you think all of a sudden Floyd is going to remember how to throw 5 punch combos? I'm not saying he would never stop throwing, and I never said he would land at a 30 or 40 percent rate, but when Pac does throw he would throw 3-5 punches at a time because that's what he always does. And if you think Floyd is just avoiding every punch in a 4 or 5 punch combo for 12 rounds you are overestimating him, which you do.

      Why wouldn't he miss an entire combo? He did against JMM and Morales. He did against Clottey who was stationary and not at all elusive. Now add that PBF is better then all three on defense. He has made several great fighters miss entire combinations. Corrales, DLH(on the ropes), Judah(fast with power). So many fighters have missed entire combos against him, why would Pacman be any different?

        Completely different fighter than he was against Morales, and he landed enough on Marquez to knock him down and beat him in the second fight, where he started to become what he is now. Pacquiao is relentless, he throws fast, he throws hard, and none of those fighters you mentioned bring everything to the table like Pac does. Pac would land on Mayweather, and he'd land enough.

          One thing is sure, Pac would land one of his lowest output if the fight goes 12 rounds, And he would take more punches in return if the fight goes 12 rounds.

            i think a lot of you guys are underestimating floyd's reach and his ability to control distance. if he fights at long range or if he fights in the pocket against pac, pac is really gonna have a hard time gettin off. like i said b4, pac is gonna have to rely on his footwork and his punch speed and punch angles. a lot of you guys on here really dnt appreciate floyds abilities. he's gonna make u miss. thats a fact. you arent gonna land anywhere near 30 or 40 percent on him. pac just has to make sure that what he is capable of landing actually hurts.

              Not very often if Floyd fights as the big man, angles don't mean very much if you are out of range all the time, speed also doesn't mean alot if you are out of range and tends to get you in trouble when you start reaching.

              I think Manny's % would fall in line with most opponents maybe a couple points above.

                delahoya is coming aggressive on pac on that fight thats why pac does less punches but still alot lol

                heres the real thing

                on defence base fighters..(which where floyd is)
                he throws more punches

                on counter puncher...(which where floyd is)
                he throws more punches

                on agressive fighters...(which where delahoya is on that night)
                he still does alot but not as much as other counter puncher opponents, and defensive ones

                he wont be throwing less punches on floyd
                his gloves will be on floyds face all night and wont give him a chance to pot shot...

                aight peps im off peace all
                you should've stopped there...

                  20-24%

                  Floyd will be landing well over 40%

                    If Mayweather doesn't get outclassed by Manny then i will be impressed if May only loses to him by UD.
                    You're going to be really hurt.....

                      Exactly. That shows you how little some of these people truly know. They just wave their pom poms and throw out numbers.
