cause he's too smart... if you wait on him, he's gonna pick you apart.
that's why wifebeater ducked margarito... margarito won't wait on wifebeater.. he'll just keep throwing even tho all he's hitting is wifebeater's arms and shoulders. (that's not to say that wifebeater can't beat marg, just saying that's why he ducked him)
he leaves him self open as much as anyone else watch him throw a right he leaves the left down or when he jabs he rasies up an is open to be hitwith body shots he also is very predictable and to be honest his feet arent what they used to be notice he finds the rope now a days more then normal remind of someone (jones)
like some guy said on here its not him getting old in a fight but inbetween emComment

he's shown vulnerability to lefties...judah touched him early with straight lefts and corley had him on ***** street with a right hook. also the southpaw stance pretty much negates the shoulder roll defense. all that said...i think pac leaves far more openings for floyd to exploit than floyd leaves pac.
he can shoulder roll pac its easy it opens you up to be able to jab and then come across with your right hand to the body or head or left hook over the jabComment

Thats just totally off the mark, not how a fight is won.
Of course the only way to beat him is to box him. You can't beat a smart fighter being ******. outwork him? what does that nonsense even mean? throw a bunch of shots that miss?
no, the way to beat floyd is the way to beat anyone. you gotta do to floyd exactly what floyd does to other guys, make him see a mirror image of himself, learn his feints and don't fall for any of that dumb ****. you gotta be smart and box, and don't get ****** into that pull-counter, control the distance
Freddie tried to implement the blueprint on how to beat Floyd with a much fresher, stronger, and heavier Oscar. They even hired Shane to help out with the so- called similar style to Floyd. Not to mention, Oscar worked with Floyd's dad for a few of his own fights.
Mind you, that was Floyd's first fight above 147lbs for the championship title.Comment

Just by watching them I think Floyd is an overall better fighter and would manage to beat Manny by outboxing him (though I do think Manny would be quite successful early), I just think Floyd will adjust... but one plus that Manny has on his side is being a southpaw, because it means Floyd wont be able to use the shoulder roll as effectively.
So basically the only way I see Manny winning is trying to outwork him the whole fight, he could do it, but I see Floyd adjusting and ending up outboxing him. Manny gets hit quite often when you watch him against fighters that stand infront of you and fight (Margarito, Clottey, Cotto) but Mannys workrate overcomes it, against a guy like Floyd he wont just stand infront of him and be a target he will hit and move.
But with that said, Floyd is 34 now he is no spring chicken himself.Comment

The big thing why everyone wants to see this fight is because the way to beat Floyd (apparently, the only noticable way) is to just outwork him and the way to beat Pacquiao is to outbox him, both of them are great at each.

well first you need a stiff, quicker and better jab, you also need excellent timing, don't try to go.in there and knock him out, his defense minimizes how many punches you throw because of his effective well timed and accurate counters, quick jabs too the body and lead rights so out working him won't work. you have to outbox and out counter him which would cause for a boring fight. The only downfall with trying to counter him his footwork and speed would allow him to adapt into the aggressor like in the Mosley fight.Comment
