Floyd's whole gameplan was to stay in front of Canelo, but in the first round Canelo moved backwards so Floyd HAD to go forward in order to get back in front of him. And yea Floyd did go completely flatfooted and walked him down the entire fight. It looked like the Ortiz fight a little. When Floyd fought going backwards, he calmly walked flatfooted, allowing Nelo to still stay in front of him in close distance, so he can counter him while going backwards. In the last few later rounds thats when he starts running a little bit. But give Props. Manny cant do what Floyd did to Nelo. He would run in and out like he did with Hatton
      He was taking advantage of someone that can't move and punch. That's really all it was.

      All the way offense, or all the way defense for Nelo. Just like Ortiz.

      That's why I said it was a display of artificially walking someone down.

      And yes, I give him credit for that, because he has the head movement and foot speed to not get hit back while pursuing, but he wasn't commiting to any exchange.

      That's why I called it artificial.

        May I ask who was at their natural weight at 147? Would you say Pac should be really fighting at 140 or 147? He could fight at both and most of the previous pac fights at 147. How many has he actually weighed in at 147 vs 142? I think it's more of a cushion for him than actually having to drop down to 147 like many boxers.

        You forget Shane fought how many times in those 2 years? twice.

        Margo wasn't a legit fight at the time? I think your looking at things in present tense vs what the common knowledge before Pac tore him down and retired him! CottoVSMarg was just a promotional fight and his eye became a problem because of Pac.

        Do you think Rios was too big or too small for 140? Wasn't he complaining about the weight his last 140 fight?

        Now, who else would you like Pac to fight right now? Maidana, Brook, Karass, Malignaggi? What a joke!

        JMM and Bradley didn't want it with Pac because he owned them in situation. Bradley loss that fight. JMM was seconds away from being put to rest. **** happens!

        Sorry to say but as others have mentioned. Rios has actually built a fan base as well as being a recognizable name because of how he is. His fights are exciting as well. It was common sense and only because he lost that fight to alvardo it's a problem.
        Lol how can you say Pacs fight against Margarito was legit? Marg got knocked the **** out a year earlier, was suspended for a year, fought a bum as a tune up, was fighting Pac at a catch weight, not to mention Marg is not even that great of a fighter to begin with gtfoh

          YOU love Floyd greatly but that is complete bullcrap. It was Floyd who did not come to fight. He stayed at a distance. He left never landed because he was too nervous to get close. Floyd did all the moving. The more I have watched that fight, I see that Floyd landed "zero". He won because he has a reputation and gets style points for being evasive.

          In relation to the farce of Floyd "fighting" Canelo. He did not fight.

          Pac would at least fight. I think Canelo would be too good for him and too big. Fight probably won't happen

            pac by ko
            You're kidding yourself if you think that version of Oscar is better than a 23 year old Canelo. A lot of Pacquiao's opponents have been past their prime. I have a hard time thinking of a prime, elite fighter he beat without a catch-weight

              Pac has a fight coming up so you can make a thread about a fantasy fight between Pac and Hagler and his NSB crew would say he demolishes Hagler. Just the way it is
