Do You Agree That Pacquiao Only Has 12 Minutes To Beat Floyd Mayweather.

[Baracka Flocka]

I tell this to my friends all the time. Because unlike most fans of either fighter, I see situations on how both fighters can win the fight.

If Mayweather isn't out of there early, like Hatton style (which I find hard to imagine)then Floyd will as usual adjust and dominate, punishing Floyd, opening up his defensive guard at will to tag Pacquiao with stiff jabs and straight rights.

Pacquiao can however throw combos, So Floyd will have to guard tight, to endure a little punches as possible.

I don't think so. The main issue is actually following up on Floyd Mayweather; after landing a big shot. I haven't seen anyone able to do that, so I can't see Pacquiao stopping Mayweather, especially considering Mayweather's good defense. I actually think Pacquiao can win a S.D or a U.D, so I disagree in that Pacquiao only has a certain amount of time to beat Floyd.

Yeah i agree Manny has to win it early or he has no shot!!!

[Ivansmamma]

No i disagree. It's mainly about Pac ability to put effective pressure on Floyd. If he can do that for the entire fight he can win a points decision or KO Floyd. If he can't Floyd will counter him all night and maybe KO him.

[bojangles1987]

Disagree.

Floyd would adjust, and do much better later like he always does, but Pacquiao is always a strong closer and he certainly wouldn't get tired. A lot of the things that would give Floyd trouble at first would still be there late in the fight, the only predictable thing about Pacquiao is that he will throw punches.

I think all drug tests are gonna take 12 minutes combined. So you might be rigth, but as far as beating floyd......I highly doubt it.

The smarter fighter will win this one.
They both know what the other is capable of doing..
It comes down to taking the other opponents style away.what we do know is Pac settles his feet to throw..and has to have room to throw his punches..Floyd is probably aware of this and will do that..Roach's gameplan probably consist of just staying on the attack with pressure..also, I may be wrong..but I don't think Pac can fight stepping back..Floyd should win this easy.

Pac fights backwards just fine. That means his opponent is moving forward, and Pac loves when his opponent moves forward.
