Pacquiao fighting a past prime Mosley at age 40 without winning a fight in 2 years is ok.
Pacquiao fighting a past prime dehydrated Margarito is ok.
Pacquiao fighting a dehydrated Cotto after getting murdered by Marg is ok.
Pacquiao fighting a bloated Marquez at age 40 is ok.
Pacquiao fighting Hatton after he got KO'd by Floyd is ok.
Pacquiao fighting a past prime De La Hoya at a class he hadn't fought in in almost a decade is ok.
Yeah talk about fighting guys on the down slide.

mayweather does not do well against adversity. volume punchers are his weakness and mayweather hasn't fought enough world class southpaw fighters to prove his claim of being the best. as for pacquiao, he's always had to fight bigger orthodox style fighters his entire boxing career and mayweather's style is nothing knew to him, his offense will trump mayweather's defense.. pacquiao believes that mayweather is far easier to hit than everyone else thinks and he's right.

If you really believe this b.s. that you posted I have some magic beans I can sell you. Seriously, just because Manny says it doesn't mean it is the gospel. Mayweather is bothered by jabs and defense to which Manny has neither. Zab Judah had a jab and was way faster than Hatton or Manny and he still couldn't squeak by more than a few rounds from Mayweather. Totally understand that Manny does a lot for his countrymen, but the blind nuthuggery needs to stop.

Despite the mixed reviews upon its announcement, the fourth fight between rivals Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Marquez is on the way, as the two stars will meet on December 8th inside of the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada.

This week, Pacquiao and Marquez have already made press stops in Los Angeles and New York ahead of their clash, while finding time to also appear on ESPN’s “First Take” on Thursday amidst their hectic schedule.

Mayweather cant handle pressure fighters ,Look at Castillo fight the first one he outconnected mayweather by 90+ punches he cant handle lefties ether,total robberry decision, floyd isnt really undefeated , hes been defeted before and it can certainly happen again plus hes past his prime just look at the cotto fight, floyd has never faced a top lefty like manny ,just look at how easy Spadafora handled him he made it look easy, anyone with a strong left hand or a southpaw has already and will continue to give flyd all kinds of problems, MANNY STOPS FLOYD AND NOONE KNOWS THIS BETTER THAN FLOYD HENCE NO FIGHT!!!!

That's true.

How does the older fighter wait for the younger fighter to lose a step? The question that has no answer. He waited for Ortiz to lose a step too right? If anything PAC is waiting on Floyd to get old. It's just taking longer than he thought lol. Maybe PAC can finally truly beat Marquez now that he's old. If he can't beat a 40 yr old Marquez, he can't beat a 36 yr old mayweather.

Was hatton a pressure fighter? You would have more credibility if u didn't say manny stops Floyd. To say a fighter with no knockdowns get stopped
By a guy who hasn't stopped anybody in years is just crazy talk. I understand why though. Because we all know he can't outbox Floyd. A KO is his only hope.

[tredh]

Left hands coming straight down the pike from come-forward fighters? I sure did. Cotto has power in both hands, and was not just "tapping" Floyd with limp left jabs. I stand by what I said.

You really shouldn't

the more aggressive u are against floyd, the more he hits you. pacquiao will get demolished. he saying the same thing people have been saying about floyd for like 8 yrs now "he doesnt like pressure'' blah blah but that strategy has never worked. if thats the one ''weakness'' on floyd, then lets talk about manny's weaknesses which a whole book could be written about that, for one hes always off balance and his head is wide open for counters all the time, his speed saves him from all his amateur mistakes but vs floyd he would get dissected. i dont give manny more than 2 rounds vs floyd, the skill level is so far apart im confused as to why people even give him a chance, this is a mismatch but the media must keep the false image of a competitive fight to keep the interest going.

[beatnutts]

Personally i think Manny would lose against Floyd but both aren't the same anymore so who knows what well happen. I mean, Manny is an amazing offensive fighter but he hasn't looked like the old Manny for 3 or 4 straight fights now and Floyd has been hit more than before. I will say that Manny making the statement about just throwing lots of punches against Floyd is pretty ****** especially the Hatton comment because Hatton punch stat was 17% and that **** isn't good.

[Carpe Diem]

Marquez also said that floyd doesn't like to fight (basically calling him a lil b*tch) and that Pac hits harder

Marquez had to say floyd would beat Pac only because floyd won more rounds against him but that fight was a complete farce when you consider Marquez had to jump over 2 weight classes to fight at a catchweight that floyd didn't even try to make lmao
