      jaba the hutt dont know ****. they will fight as long as floyd dont get in trouble but like with most rich celebs in legal troubles he wont see a trail for over a year and wont do any time for longer than that.

      2nd they will fight they are just milking it. bob arum wants manny to fight all his options before he finish it off with floyd. a lost to floyd before he fights cotto clotty margirito would have not made those fights that good and took some of manny legacy. but a lose to floyd after he beat cotto margirito and clotty he can afford to lose to mayweather or win it dont matter. but arum doesnt have anymore options left. if valero was alive and still undefeated manny would have fought him either before or after margirito and floyd would have had to wait even longer.

        I'll argue a little on Floyd's side here....

        1. Floyd wouldn't use a shoulder roll against Manny, it's useless. Shoulder roll isn't for jabs, it's for rolling away power right-hand shots from orthodox fighters. Floyd is good enough to use a conventional defense and rely on footwork, hand-speed, counters, and accuracy....it's his style of offense.

        Floyd fights like he's scared to get hit....but he harnesses that fear into a reflexive, reactionary, counter-punch offense.

        2. Floyd's footwork (not necessarily speed at this point) is top-notch, so this guy's argument can be nullified. Floyd wouldn't chase you with his shoulder, he'd match the opponent's footwork instead, while keeping his guard up.

        Still, Pacquiao's style is unorthodox and risky (wild yet calculated). He lands punches regardless of defense or footwork. The way to beat Manny is COMBO counters, not single punch (pull) counters, like Floyd does.

        When you counter Manny after he moves in, he instinctively blocks the first punch he sees...and figures he's out of the way of another punch...but he's not...he's wide open. JMM exposed this flaw round after round in two fights.

        But when you see Pacquiao NOW, especially against Cotto, he's willing to wait and play defense before attacking with his own combo counters. Manny is a MUCH better boxer now than he was vs. JMM.

        It's the fantasy fight of a generation. But I don't think this guy called it that well, and I REALLY don't think they'll ever fight.

          im nto a ***** or ******* or non of that nonsense elementary name calling bull**** yall use. im a boxing fan and i understand the sport from my personal expereince and from many pros and coaches and managers i talk to in gyms around the country. its a buisness. manny and floyd can wait and will do big as long as manny and floyd stay winning and champions and p4p 1 n 2. arum has a stable of fighters he will feed them one by one to manny margirito is last and next is floyd.

              floyd fights like he scared to get hit? he wont do shoulder roll? huh what are you talking about? hes a defensive counter puncher and noone likes to get hit you just have guys who dont have the ability to not get hit so they take a punch to give a punch. but noone likes to get hit. 2nd floyd is so much more than a shoulder roll he can slip he can parry he can catch and fire he can block. hes the most versitile fighter in the world. and again you need your own opinions. noone said anything about floyd feet until roach did now everyone wanna say his feet not fast? when in the last 2 fights did he actually move his feet period i saw floyd being an agressor even in judah fight he was the agressor. you cant use fast feet when you comming forward or standing still.

              even if your making a post on floyd side your statements are wrong but i understand they are opinions tho.

                Floyd is bum,he has no chance against Pacquiao.

                Floyd only fights one dimensional guys like Mosley,Hatton,Hoya,Baldomir and others.

                  that fat ass telling the world how floyd fighht and how to beat floyd is a slap in the face to all the fighters and trainers who worked against floyd. him telling the world why and how to beat floyd is like me telling cliffard B how to make video games better than gears.

                    2 of those guys manny fought after floyd. floyd also shut out marquez who manny went life and death with twice. also msoley knocked margirito the **** out and manny fighting him next. its manny who fights the same one dimensional flat footed slow boxers. but your a troll and a gay fan so i dont know why i wasted my time
