Here are some examples of fighters who can beat FLoyd:
A) Size, reach bigger than Floyd and with solid jabs (powerful right hand would be a plus). Hearn
B) Pressure fighters like Frazier or Duran with excellent inside game.
C) Outslicks Floyd : Whitaker and SRL.Comment

In order to do that your opponent must do it as well. As long as Manny would pivoting/circling around in the middle of the ring, Floyd would have to no choice but to constantly turn with him. Did you saw when Floyd mocked Ortiz's footwork during his media day workout? He knew Ortiz doesn't constantly use lateral movement by pivoting or circling around the ring; Therefore he didn't really have any reason to did so. It's the same thing with Mosley, he didn't constantly circled around the ring against Floyd either. When Marquez fought Floyd, he did constantly used side-steps and circled around the ring, and Floyd adapted to his movement and constantly turned with him.if mayweather comes in agressive against pacquiao like he did against ortiz then pacquiao will beat him. the mayweather that fought ortiz was for the most part coming forward (rarely circling) and standing in front of ortiz the whole night and you just don't do that with pacquiao. if mayweather does fight aggressive against pacquiao then we can see a fight similar to leonard vs duran I where leonard lost because he tried to fight duran's fight instead of outboxing duran like many people expected him to do.Comment

I think Sergio Martinez can beat him. His style would give Floyd fits and his size advantage would be too much for Floyd, IMO. Martinez can fight going backwards he has a piston like jab(when he wants to use it) and he fights at a very unorthodox pace.
I don't think anyone at 147 or 154 has the tools to beat him.Last edited by Rocky Rode; 11-19-2011, 04:33 PM.Comment

(one thing to note, a lot of jabs with no intentions, and a lot of grazing punches, also counted punches in clinch)Last edited by WombBat; 11-19-2011, 04:17 PM.Comment

Manny isn't a pressure Boxer. He uses constant ambush attacks, move to another direction, then reset and repeat. If he hurt you, then that's when he'll use constant pressure to clean your clock. All that sound great and all, except for the part when he misses with those ambush attacks; which cause him to be off balance and leave himself open to get counter.Comment
