    Pac should certainly try to go all out early and see if he can catch him with something. And if Pac does catch him with something, he would have to finish it there, because if it's the 5th round and Mayweather's fine, I don't see Pac winning.

I can see Manny mixing things up utilizing his talents and swarming PBF a bit and using his movement and angles to throw Mayweather off.


      I won't be shocked to see Pac switch to orthodox at some point in this fight. Just Imagine what Pac's jab would be like from an orthodox stance and he'll still have his right hook. Could be a way to throw Mayweather off even for a moment.
      I just see 1 way PAC winning, and many ways PBF can win aginst PAC...

      PAC has a punchers chance, more at the begining of the fight, once PBF gets his rythm and adapted to his style & speed it's over, if by some miracle PAC can change an adapt better than he did against JMM, then he may have a chance...

      Mayweather switched to Southpaw stance early in his carrer...he may do it...

          Pressure Mayweather

          Pick his spots nicely

          Pepper him with that straight Jab

          Cut off the ring of Mayweather .... the biggest key to winning IMO

            He should keep telling him to not take the tests.

              Pacquiao will have to be patient to win this fight. He will have to think a lot more than he is used to in the ring. The only way I can see him winning is if he establishes a rhythm early and this will be based primarily on the jab. Pacquiao, however, does not have a good jab. He will need to work on it consistently to set up his punches. Even with a good jab though, I can still see him getting hit far too often by Mayweather right hands and left hooks. I just don't think that he has the capability to stop them. His only advantage in this fight, besides a slight speed advantage, is that he throws so many punches from awkward angles. This will frustrate Floyd, but I also think that Floyd will cause too many problems for Manny. He will-I repeat-will create distance between them eventually, and when he does this it will give Manny fits. I expect to see Manny's punch output reduced some-not a lot, but just less than average-during this fight, he will begin to pick his shots more carefully. Manny has to upset Floyd's rhythm consistently to win this fight, and I don't see that happening.

                I would pressure him by countering off the front foot.

                Example.......

                pressure him by navigating him toward the ropes, but dont start throwing lots of punches at him and pressuring that way, wait on him so he is the one to lead, then just look to counter from that position when he does lead, he will feel uncomfortable leading but will feel compelled to lead because he wont want to be in a bad position in the ring.

                Things you would have to watch out for is him taking you down the alley and nailing you on the turn with a right when/if you follow him, you would also need your head in perpetual motion when coming foward as he will try to leap in the with left hook to get himself outta bad position in the ring.

                Just apply that steady pressure and look to counter him. double your right hands, jab to the belly and come over the top with the right hand, get off the shoulder and throw the left hook( triple it), always keep it at long range.

                    he should try to win on points. floyd is bigger than him
                    so the only way is for him to win on points

                      which he does. floyd leans forward and lifts his back heel right before he throws a right hand lead. since he only throws no more than 2 punches at a time, it's quite easy to read which hand floyd is going to throw from a spectator's perspective. hopefully pac can notice it from his view and get off first.
