How would Mayweather's hands hold up against Pacquiao's chin?

[DARKSEID]

Judging by how easily Mayweather's hands break, I think Mayweather's hands would break before he even started to hurt or break down Pacquiao.

If they fought, Mayweather would have to constantly land every single round just to keep Pacquiao off of him and slow down his offense.

The more Pacquiao gets hit, the more likely Mayweather's hands will break, and Floyd does not have 1 punch KO power.


***Edit:Last night, around the 9th round, when Mayweather had taken control of the entire fight I was wondering why Floyd slowed down and was backing off when he could have easily finished him off just by continuuing what he was doing, until I learned in the post fight interview that he broke his hand, and that's when it made sense.

The same thing also happened against Mosley.

He cannot do that against Pacquiao. If you slow down against Pacquiao, he will destroy you.

The only thing Pacquiao needs to get you out of there, is one window of opportunity, and when he gets that window, he's going to barge in with everything he's got.

Pac's chin is good, but his technique and risk-taking style is his downfall. He lunges in with the jab or lead left to set up the next 3 punches. By the time he even pulls his first punch back, Mayweather would have countered with the right hand. The speed at which Pac comes in would multiply the impact of Mayweather's counter, which is kinda what happened in Pac-JMM 4.

Ok, but if he hurts his hand in almost every fight, even when his activity is low, how are his hands going to hold up against Pacquiao, when you have to hurt him just to keep him off you.

And do it for 12 rounds.

It's a valid question. Floyd hurts his hands every single fight, it's always been a major issue, and it always affects his workrate. It's no secret to anybody who watches boxing.

How are his hands going to hold up against Pacquiao, who forces everyone he fights to elevate their workrate.

I think Pac is the best and most accurate at knowing how the canvas smells. I mean no one has had their nose so close to it.

People are dumb to think Mayweather is invincible and able to counter Pacquiao every single time.. don't bother arguing this. If they knew boxing they would of caught the small glimpses of what Guerrero did that shows hints to why Manny has a good chance to succeed.

No doubt I was rooting for May last night too.

Guerrero did nothing like Pacquiao, but if you saw those couple 5 seconds that I saw.. it's interesting.

Chins dont break hands , heads do , foreheads side heads not chins .

Floyd uses Manny for target practice and is class above Pac , I think Floyd would beat Pac easier than Guerrero and JMM , both are better skilled boxers than Manny which means Manny will have big problems landing anything .

Even if he lands on Manny all night, he will break his hands before he stops him.
