Physically these fighters are even. They are both fast, both strong , both good fighters.
I think overall Floyd is the more polished better fighter and Pac is the more explosive fighter.
However what separates these two isnt skill or speed or resume. Its smarts. The smarter fighter will win.
What I have come to realize is that Floyd doesnt fight with his fists he fights with his brain. Watch the Shane Mosley fight. The adjustments he make are so ridiculous. He gets hit with 2 huge right hands in round 2. Shane goes the next 30 minutes without landing another right hand.
Adjustments. Floyd has that down to a science. He will find a weakness and poke and prod at it until his opponent is mentally and physically beaten up.
Against Pac will be no different. He will find something that works. Most think it will be the lead right. And to a certain extent I agree that is the pucnh that will light Manny up alot.
BUT.....
Floyds jab is laser accurate and blazing fast. It didnt miss Shane once. When Floyd threw it Shane had no idea what to do. Floyds jab will be important than his lead right. The lead right is always there but the Jab will make that lead right even more deadly when he throws it.
Also watch for body punching. Vs. Lefties Floyd attacks the body relentlessly.
Corley, Judah, and Mitchell got pounded to the body. Mitchell was stopped to the body and Judah was hurt to the body several times. Floyds body punching is nuts and goes unnoticed to the casual viewer. Pacs body will be attacked and hard.
Lastly...
Watch for inside fighting. Watch the clinches. Watch how Floyd maneuvers on the inside. Pac is not a good inside fighter. Floyds is hard to hit on the inside and he can still get off laser right hands and hard body shots on the inside. I dont think this fight will be competitive or close in any shape form or fashion.
Floyd will win almost every round. Early rounds will be Floyds but he will turn it up later in the fight and do more damage.
I got Floyd 10 rounds to 2. Or late stoppage around Round 10...Comment

just like the "improved" pac in JMM-Pac 2? how can you improve against a fighting style youve avoided since JMM?For me, I think Pacquiao can make it a fight with his activity and his improved boxing skills. However, certain things cant be fixed and they are habits in the ring. Example, everytime Pacman throws his left hand, the right drops to his hip exposing him ti Mayweathers ultra effective check hook. I think the right hook could be effective for Manny if he were to use it more in this instance. BUT, Floyd is a superior boxer to Pacquiao and has quicker reflexes along with defensive skills. I think it could be the most competitive fight of Floyds career, and there is always a fighter who has ya number..... Always. But, the check hook is gonna discourage Manny I think, and I have a feeliong Floyd will apply technical prowess along with his speed. But, he cant fight completely defensive and expect to get away with one shot at a time. That wont fly.Comment

He will hit Pac more than he's been hit before in a 12 round fight. The jab to the head, the jab to the stomach, the check left hook, the straight right will all land on Pac.
Floyd's size and reach along with his defense will be enough to exploit Pac's speed. Pac will not fight Floyd on the inside, and he can't out box Floyd. Pac's only chance is to catch Floyd, and that won't happen. Floyd has the chin and the desire, and he has one thing over any top fighter on the planet and that is his refusal to lose. Floyd's skills are unmatched in boxing today.Comment

You seen what Marquez did right. Thats all. There's no need for posting paragraphs to answer a simple questionComment

If Manny comes in aggressive, he'll be missing a lot of shots.
If he decides to go the counter-defensive route, Floyd will be the aggressor.
And something tells me the thread stater might be a shill for Team Pacquiao, if not Freddie himself.Comment
