    What people dont realize is Pac was backing up so that Marg would throw out of range and Pac could counter with a flurry and then sidestep. Manny needs to save his energy, anytime Manny was backing up or on the ropes it was done intentionally because then Margarito would open up and it would led to open opportunities for Pacquiao.

      Floyd would try and walk Manny down and work him up close.

        Floyd won't take the punishment Marg did IMO.


        However he won't get hit as much, and personally, if Floyd chooses to walk Pac down, it plays into Pac's hands.

        Remember that Pac was toying with Marg a few times and he has always said he wants to show the fans a good fight, and that's when he goes to war.

        As for the body punch, yes it did hurt Pac quite abit, but Marg is a big ass guy and trained for it. Also I think that Pac came in softer than usual, even at 144, while he seemed a lot more toned for Cotto.
        At least you offer some good arguments here, Pac can be worked down and Mayweather can do it easily, If JMM can work Pac down and am sure Mayweather can, JMM just isnt smarter than Mayweather because if he was he would have beaten Pac without the need for any controversial scorecard.

          IMO Mayweather has no chance but to walk Pac down, Pac cant fight that great inside, He likes to have space to throw his punches, With the way Mayweather uses his elbow and left jab i see him backing Pac up.

I don't know if that means much when it's floyd fighting pacquiao because while I'm sure floyd can land some nice accurate body shots he doesn't have the heavy hands as a margarito, nor does he walk down his opponents to get pac against the ropes.

            I think he probably studies other things like footwork and tenancies pacquiao has, little things us fans don't really see.
            good post man
            Floyd does have that great jab to the body
            I realized that its a great fight and I hope it gets done!

                  im talking about a mix of all. marg pressure and just throws punches.

                  floyd pressures, ties you up, beat you on the inside, beats you during the cliches, and on the break whilst avoiding punishment himself. he will cause manny to think more than he ever has while expoliting mannys weaknesses and punishing him at the same time.

                  there, i repeated it. understand the difference between margs pressure and floyds. they are extremely different and floyds is more effective. i dont care how many punches marg USED to throw

                  the fact taht you dont noticed how big of a difference it is, sets you up for even more shock when you see floyd PRESSURING pac and beating him

                  once floyd has broken pac down from all the inside fighting. you will see him step out at range and began to punish pac to what i believe will be a TKO(roach isnt going to allow pac to take the type of clean shots floyd will deliver) or floyd will ko him from a counter he doesnt see

                      yes he did poke the face of the guard...


                      floyd seen the devastation on marg face and he went berserk .floyd does not want to suffer and kiss the canvas so understandable why he chose jail term than kiss a concrete leather and kiss the canvas ohhh that precious zero loss.
