      We already know that a very good counter puncher can throw Pacman off.I think Floyd is physically stronger than I used to give him credit for & I believe he counter punches & fustrates Pacman to a wide ud.

        I also see this as a reason we will see Floyd fight Manny in close quarters.

          I think Zab hit him with more effective left hand straights

          Mayweather doesn't need to go to Pac's body, that would be incredibly ******. To go to the body, you need to get close and exchange. Mayweather would out point Pac and go on to win a UD.

          Won't be popular and might even be boring but he isn't a risk taker, you know this.
          He only needs to fight inside when necessary. He will have to hold a lil bit. If he keeps his distance and uses lateral movement its easy.

          I actually see him fighting Manny on the inside. Mayweather is much better there and Manny isn't very good there. He doesn't need to really exchange there though. He is very comfortable in the pocket and he can really pick and chooses his shots there. And him fighting at that close range would throw Manny off IMO.
          Pac isnt great on the inside but he separates well. By that I mean he Floyd cant get comfortable inside. Thats the mistake all the other welters made and then he exploded on them. Floyd should fight tall and jab his ass to death. Hold and bully on the inside til the ref breaks it up.

            1) wifebeater's not as mobile anymore.

            2) wifebeater don't punch unless he knows for sure the other guy is out of position to punch. but pac seemingly can punch from any position. this will keep wifebeater from punching so much and with low punch output comes the risk of getting outworked.

            3) wifebeater won't punch when pac is punching. he won't risk trading with pac. if pac is constantly punching when in punching range, then wifebeater will never get a chance to punch. when your opponent is throwing more punches than you, there's a good chance you will get outworked.

            that is why wifebeater will get outworked.

              Boxing instinct says to always take the defensive fighter over the aggresive one, so if I bet on this fight I would definetly put my money on Floyd, I mean how could you bet against him.

              Its just hard to judge because Floyd has had two fights against southpaws where he was taken out of his comfort zone (even thuogh he eventually took control). I just think that even though Manny has been fed pretty favorable opposition he would still be far and away the best fighter Floyd has faced. Manny's explosive combinations could really make Floyd uncomfortable.

              With that said though Manny obviously had the two controversial fights against JMM, an inferior counter puncher to Floyd, where he was clearly having trouble.

              This fight is just more up in the air then anything IMO.

                  defensive fighters (whether peekaboo or slick) can get outworked. if you're too busy avoiding getting hit, then the other guy can take control of the pace and action. go watch pac/clottey, pwill/winky, khan/kotelnik, jmm/gainer, timmah/alexander, etc...

                    wifebeater will have no choice. pac will be on top of him all the time.

                    but where wifebeater is dangerous is when pac exits the pocket. that's when wifebeater does his best work, when his opponent is pulling out... especially if they pull out going straight back.
