Comments Thread For: Roach: Pacquiao's Speed Will Overwhelm Mayweather

[SplitSecond]

Your kidding he will step around floyd floyd foot and head movement kills this guy and the fact that he he mobile and fast PAC neck will be snapping back from jabs all day if bet all my worth on thus over rated fight

if floyd like usual keeps his distance, you may be right
if he is trying to stand his ground or push pacquiao back, he'll have a rough night

[Adamjr91]

It sounds like Arum is dying to cash out smh

Floyd has no intention to fight Pac from the beginning. There tons of videos supporting this fact. Even the floydiots not even a single one has the balls to encourage the coward to fight Pac. All they need to do is to show their support and believes that he can beat Pac easily.

While I don't think Manny would beat Floyd (I would be rooting hard for him though), I do believe that out of Floyd's remaining potential challenges, Manny would give him as good a run (if not better) than any of them.

why do you keep thinking floyd will get to fight on the inside? plus walking down a southpaw with the shoulder roll will get you killed, so floyd if he is gonna walk him down will do it with a high guard, when pacquiao throws floyd covers up, pacquiao circles out, while floyd is busy turning, pacquiao is raking him

this fight seriously has to happen, pacquiao is extremely underrated it seems

floyd can't even cut off the ring vs a southpaw, he follows you, and as it was evident vs actual pressure fighters, rios, margarito, cotto all got turned to the ropes and punished, floyd as fast as his feet are, his strenghts dont lie as a pressure fighter, maybe against mental midget judah, not against a pacquiao

i hope floyd fights like you think he will fight, because he will lose for sure then

Floyd can press him and dismantle him, it's one thing to shoot and roll out against fighters with slow to decent foot speed, it's another to do it against someone with really quick feet who's quick enough to tag you.

All I can say is that it won't be easy work, that's for sure.

Cool let's see it happen, but we all know this is bull**** from Roach and Manny. They won't fight Floyd.

Also bscene in it's usual mode again. Pac beats a very well picked and tailor made opponent whom anyone with a clue said he would destroy and the place is back in Pac is a top 5 ATG mode. Personally i said i didn't think Rios would make it past 6. This wasn't convincing from Manny Pacquaio imo. He wasn't tested by Rios in the slightest and that was no surprise. It was exactly what is was designed to be, and that's an exhibition for Manny to start up some hype again. In that sense it was a complete success.

I will tip my lid to Rios thought. He showed his toughness and his class after the fight and well done to him for his conduct.

Floyd will just adjust and do pretty much what he did against Judah. I do think Pacquiao can knock him out though in the early rounds.

Undoubtedly...
That's what usually happens to Floyd -- he gets overwhelmed with speed by his opponents...

this post is as ****** as the idiots who would say "how can floyd lose? he's undefeated"

Conformity qualifies... (I always like labels such as "******", "idiot" instead of logical arguments...)

I'm not one of the FMJr fans... I'm just watching this sport...

It's too bad they ducked Mosley because he was "too good".. It's no wonder they ducked Mayweather. Must have been "too great".

Roach talking about Mayweather yet Pac has yet to face a legit welter weight since 2009.. and even then he needed a catchweight.. lol

True, I like pac but people need to be realistic pac lost badly to a B level fighter JMM and look good against a C level fighter rios.His speed won't help him against someone who has better defensive skills and is faster than him.But we all know arum wont let him fight floyd..arum is greedy but not dumb he knows floyd would toy around with manny..pac is only allowed to fight fellow top rank victims.
