[MDPopescu]

De La Hoya is demanding that Pacquiao must leave Top Rank and surrender all promotional rights exclusively to Golden Boy Promotions in order for Pacquiao to get the big jackpot fight against Oscar

... I missed this paragraph above.

Floyds a wizard now? 1st time i ever heard that

And when i think 'wizard', i think 'spells' & i realize Floyd cant read let alone spell

Defensive wizard , why do you people pull something out of context , it never works .

Oh I came here thinking it was Diego De La Hoya

[KillaMane26]

Hand speed = Floyd
Foot Speed = Manny
Reflexes = Floyd

IF this fight happens Floyd is not gonna get by with his typical low punch output

[Nightfall]

easy work for floyd. no doubt.Oscar is on point,but pacquiao's combinations were against slow,flat footed,come forward fighters with no defense.money's defense,foot movement,and accurate counter punching will be hell,expecially when he starts walking pacquiao down. mayweather by U.D.

same thing can be said with Floyd...most of his fights were against cherry-picked plodders.

They're all cherry picks now but before he signed the contract he was scared of all of them to nsb

Im pretty confident you see a guy beating slow drained fighters and shot fighters and think the speed difference in those fights is going to translate the same against a prime really fast defensive wizard , Manny would be schooled by Floyd 10 yrs ago 5 yrs ago and now .

The trouble is you see a guy beat A and think its going to be the same against B , this is called fan vision which builds hype . .

Yeah you are prety confident but your boss is not.

1+1 = 2....so easy to figure it out!

Floyd =duck
Pacman = warrior

Single shot they are about even. But combinations, it's not even close. Mayweather doesn't even throw combos anymore.
