Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: There is No Doubt Mayweather Beats Pacquiao

[hitking]

mayweather is not beating pacquiao. He likes to control the pace of fights and is quicker than everyone he has not got that luxury against pac.

Mayweather doesn't rely on speed and quickness nearly as much as Pac.

[FightTalent]

FMM beats pac due to true boxing skill, accuracy and ability to adjust versus the wild, keep busy, winging style of pac. pac will get frustrated at how often FMM shots get in and pac wont be able to adjust but instead try to increase his work rate and leave himself more wide open to be hit. Down goes Pac, Down goes Pac.

I don't know how good Mayweather's feet are anymore. He doesn't move like he used to and I think that there is something to what Roach says about his legs not being underneath him as much.

toobad pac wont take the fight and prove it right.

let pac and roach go in there kicking floyd doesnt have legs

Cotto, Clottey and Margarito all touched Pac up with ease at
certain times and now Pac fans are talking about Floyd won't
be able to handle Pac's pressure? Mayweather is the most
accurate and defensive fighter in the sport. Clottey had Pac
touched up and he wasn't even trying and now Pac fans are
trying to persuade everyone that Pac is Floyd's worst nightmare?
Ha ha ha ha ha! All you have to do is wait and time Pac and he
is done in. Floyd ate Mosley best punches back to back and still
came on strong towards the end of the round and dominated
the rest of the fight. Pac punches causes pain by accumulation.
No way Pac gets off all them punches on Floyd because the
countering would be overwhelming. Not too confident about
Pac winning considering his own trainer said Mayweather is
so different from all of Pac's opponents and in the beginning
that Manny may need a catchweight to fight Floyd to give
any advantages to Pac.

Pac fans need to stop ignoring the truth and just roll with it.
How can Pac fans still think Floyd was the reason the fight
didn't and is not happening when at the end of the day Manny
walked away from the first negotiations and recently told Amir
Kahn that he is not mentally ready for the tests? Pac fans have
got to be the most ignorant and hateful fans on the planet. Roach
and Arum have been telling us fans exactly how they feel and
what their about and it is not having our best interest in mind
when it comes to making fights. Pac fans need to stop with
this "Manny is the greatest" crap because he ain't even fighting
a guy with a different style to match his or displays any kind of
defense whatsoever. Manny was carefully maneuvered to become
this hugesuperstar and while that is great for boxing media wise,
in the same breath it's not good for the sport because Manny
ain't figthing the best challenges. I honestly believe if this fight
between them happens, the shut out Pac will receive will
make even Pac fans belittle Pac to make Floyd look like the
win wasn't that great.

Baldomir's welterweight title lineage could be traced back to the Forrest-Mosley fights, or even the Mosley-de la Hoya fight depending on who you ask.

Margarito's title was won vacant in a fight with Antonio Diaz.

I think its safe to say the Mosley, Forrest, Mayorga, Spinks, Judah, Baldomir, Mayweather title lineage more reflects what was generally seen as the legitimate welterweight title than Margarito beats Diaz for vacant belt.

*******s keep talking L's

tell pac to stop ducking tests and making up excuses and lies then. hes the only who has been holding up the fight from thebegining

tell may-never to grow a pair and fight Pacquiao instead of women, children and security guards. Tell'm (gayweather) that his fights should be in the ring and with people that can hit back, instead of people he knows can't fight (i.e. women, children and people making minimum wage).

Cotto, Clottey and Margarito hit harder than Gayweather. You think Gayweather will ever step into the ring with any of these three? No. Because one hit from either of them will send Fraud to the canvas. If Gayweather will "for-sure" beat Pac, why hasn't Gayweather answer Pac when Pac called him out? Why is Gayweather still on vacation? All roads lead to Pacquiao now!!! The only road that Gayweather is now on will lead him straight to jail.

Been saying for a few years now that Bob Arum is the real reason this fight won't happen.

I'm sure Manny would take the blood test but Bob won't let him.

Just like when Bob didn't want Floyd to fight De la hoya. Now he doesn't want Pac to fight Mayweather.

When Pac starts to call his own shots , then maybe we get the fight everbody wants to see.

I agree. Bob "The Saltiest" Arum is the one that stops
all the fights from happening due to his personal grudges
against Oscar and Floyd. Bob is controling Pac like he
couldn't do against De La Hoya and Mayweather. How are
you going to tell a young fighter that he can't get 20Mil
for fighting Oscar but try to get Floyd to fight a nobody
in Margarito for 8Mil but still can't guarantee big money
for matches with Cotto and Hatton? Bob Arum is ganking
his fighters. Oscar discovered it and took over his career
and so did Floyd and for that. Arum has never forgave them.
It's already written and documented in the history books of
boxing. So obvious to the rational.

Respect your decision but your wrong.

When ever De La Hoya speaks you have to listen but I do beleave hes wrong on this occasion. Apart from the fact that he lost a S.D to Mayweather and got brutally beaten in 8 by Pacquiao, Pacquiao is a smarter fighter then most people give him credit for and when he starts to get hit on the ropes he always seems to be able to swiftly remove himself and normally attacks straight back with sucsess. Im not bothered about who wants to fight and who doesn't but if both men get in the ring I think Pac has what it takes to take out Mayweather as has Mayweather to take out Pac but at a push i'd go for Pacquiao. Speed kills and theres no one quicker.
