    what about the clottey fight?

    that fight told me that pac doesn't have welterweight power.

    pac threw, what, 1000+ punches? and still could never break through clottey's guard. yet, judah and cotto were able to break through that guard to land hard shots.

    yeah i know pac kd'ed cotto, but cotto has been knocked down before, and he's been chicken legged before. plus the 145 catchweight may have been a factor. (gotdamn i hated that catchweight bs).

    after the fifth rd of pac-cotto, when cotto was already finished, pac hit cotto with clean, full power shots, repeatedly, for the rest of the fight, but cotto never got staggered. yeah he bled like a mu****a, but never staggered, never got put on ***** street. those same clean shots from a true welter would have dazed cotto.

    and no way pac hits as hard as mosley, so good luck trying to replicate rd 2 of mosley-floyd.

    size will be another factor. floyd is too big for pac when you consider that he's just as fast if not faster than pac.

    i think pac's only chance is to use his quickness and try to outhustle floyd and out-workrate him to a decision, while trying to survive floyd's pinpoint incoming. even if pac somehow is able to find floyd, he ain't knockin out floyd.

    in other words, it's a longshot that pac beats floyd.

    Im a pac fan and i even realize this ****.


    i would love to be proven wrong though. reverse jinx in effect, bitchez!

      When pacquiao fought hatton, it was all pac pac pac ...... hatton looked like an ameteaur compared to pac man.




      And made one of the most brutal knockouts in the history of boxing.




      So all you *****S out there .... pac does have a chance. Im a floyd fan and i even realize this ****.

      Floyd was letting Hatton do that so he would feel successful enough to get jabbed,crossed and hooked for the whole second half of the fight lol

        Thats a dumbass theory, *******s dont even use Hatton as an example. Anybody who knows anything about boxing know not to use triangle theories to prove a point. If thats the cast then switch the title around and replace Hatton with Marquez.

          Cotto said recently that the hardest hit he ever got caught with came from Judah. And we've seen Mayweather take Judah's best shoots.

            You are not a Floyd fan.

            That much is obvious.

            And Reed pretty much said everything that needed to be said.

              I think the fight can go either way, one thing for sure if Pac loses its for a boring UD, but if Pac wins Mayweather will be moping the floor with his face!!!!

                I suggest you rewatch Hatton-Mayweather.......

                Ricky won 2 rounds in that fight. He barely landed a glove on Floyd's face.

                  It's something called an "adjustment" he was getting used to Hatton's foot speed and infighting and once he did he BEAT HIM IN HIS OWN DOMAIN. Plus a>b does not mean b>c

                    I think it goes like this:

                    Just because, A > B and B > C ... Does not mean A > C

                      LOL are you seriously trying to use triangle theories? Anyone who watches boxing knows that's a load of crap. You have to look at styles, history, strengths, weaknesses, etc. Focusing on triangle theories makes you look like you have very little boxing knowledge.

                      Mayweather-Castillo: A close UD and a 8-4 type UD
                      Hatton-Castillo: One sided 5th round KO
                      Mayweather-Hatton: 10th round TKO


                      Ali-Frazier: Loss for Ali
                      Foreman-Fraizer: 5th round TKO for Foreman
                      Ali-Foreman: 8th round KO for Ali

                      Cotto-Mosley: UD for Cotto
                      Cotto-Margo: 11th round TKO for Margo
                      Mosley-Margo: One sided 9th round TKO for Mosley

                      Mayweather-Corrales: One sided 10th round TKO for Floyd
                      Castillo-Corrales: Close TKO loss for Castillo
                      Mayweather-Castillo: One close fight and a 8-4 decision for Mayweather (closer than the paper says)

                      Holyfield-Rahman: 8th round TKO for Holyfield
                      Ruiz-Rahman: UD for Ruiz
                      Holyfield-Ruiz: UD for Ruiz with a KD, a draw and a close win for Holyfield (again, closer than the paper says)

                      Tua-Lewis: UD loss for Tua
                      Rahman-Lewis: 5th round KO win for Rahman
                      Tua-Rahman: Controversial 11th round TKO and Draw (once again, closer than the paper says)
