    some things you guys don't understand

    *manny pacquiao rarely gets people up against the ropes because he has a in and out fighter

    *mayweathers defense moves will work better on pacquiao because of mannys reach

    *manny pacquiao can get very frustrated

    *manny pacquiao is still very weak to body shots in the stomach

      Mentally as well Pacquiao has the edge, his confidence is supreme, Mayweather is good, but the fact he has even asked for blood test tell you he has doubts.

      Pacquiao loves to fight, has been in wars, Floyd not so much. Floyd will prefer a boxing match but with Pacquiao southpaw style, pressure and willingness to trade it will turn into a war.

        No.. peak-a-boo is more... AA, Winky, Clottey... Binocular.. not everyone uses that term.. but it's when he's looking through his gloves.

          Mayweather lacks in the confidence department?

              I think on a technical level Floyd is the winner, but Manny has intangibles that could see him win.

              I also see Mayweather possibly getting robbed by judges due to influence of the crowd from random flurries that don't land. I just hope the judges eyes are better than Lampley who has often mentioned someone landing on Mayweather when he has actually countered them.

                i can see 2 scenarios. Floyd frustrating pac, tying him up and keeping him of with the jab and right hand to a ud. I can also see pac using his footwork and hand speed to go in and out with flurries backing floyd into the ropes. pac wont land many clean but he will win the rounds.

                  The point was... when he threw a right handed.. it landed.

                  Seemingly every time he threw it.

                  There was zero defense for it.

                  Clotteys lack of balls is another story.
                  He also paid every time he threw it.

                  Clottey did not everytime he threw the right hand as well, maybe around 30%. Pacquiao was much more open to try and get Clottey to open up himself.

                  But he was much too scared.

                  If Floyd wants to use those tactics then Manny will take the UD.

                    Is that when he move his gloves to let the punch/es pass through?

                      i dont get it, seems the same

                      anyway, it's harder to stay awake for a punch that comes once a century than one that is a key element in ones determined will to win rounds(thus, throwing with regularity)

                      floyd will throw more, keep pacquiao more alert than in the clottey fight, even if he lands more than clottey(likely), he'll be more prone to the pacquiao counters
