Comments Thread For: Video: Roger Mayweather Discusses Manny Pacquiao Fight

Manny and Cotto have the same exact reach and Miguel's jab found Floyd's face so many times he broke his nose and backed him up into the ropes with it often... but Manny is not going to land a much faster, more powerful, and unorthodox straight left. Yeah, I guess your story checks out.

The distance between the jab and an orthodox fighter and the left hand of a southpaw and an orthodox fighter is totally different. Because Cotto is an orthodox fighter (yes his left hand is his power hand) means here is a much shorter range of distance! Cotto's jab could find Mayweather much quicker than a straight left can find Mayweather.

Look at Mayweather vs. Marquez, Floyd had an easy time landing his jab on Marquez's face. He probably landed more jabs on Marquez than Pacquiao was able to land straight lefts because, like I said, the distance between a jab and an orthodox fighter is different than a left hand and an orthodox fighter.

Mayweather is a master of timing and if guys slower and less agile could time Manny's left certainly Floyd will. He's going to be landing rights on Manny all night long.

Lmao at all the analysts. Each man's opponent is the best fighter he's ever faced, end of story. No opponent either man has faced has more championship rounds on their resume and big fight experience. Closest would be DLH. Let the better man on that night win and stop with the insanity.

Just like Floyd knocked out C rated mediocre wide swinging Maidana.. Smfh.. Floyd hasnt seen this type of offense speed and power in his last 8 fights.

Once Floyd feels Pacs power i doubt Floyd engages and Pac wins more rounds by being busiers.

We all seen this speed power and offense with Bradley Rios and Algieri and it is not gunna touch Floyd , you people are blinded by fantasy , if you watch Manny vs Algieri he makes so many mistakes with a bum JWW that Floyd will be snapping clean counters of his dial for target practice .

Floyd will school the sht out of your invincible machine that really dont hurt anybody thats not CWed or has a coke habit , Manny will be exposed in this fight and show clearly why he has avoided WWs over his last 5 fights .

Now I know you dudes are drunk on that Floyd kool aid.

That little theory was already put to the test. Cotto threw his jab first at Manny, Manny countered with his straight left. Now you tell me which got to point B faster:



And that straight left is FAR more damaging than any orthodox fighters' jab and it was looking lethal against a tall rangy fighter in Algieri in Pac's most recent fights. Only way that straight left doesn't find a home on Floyd's face is if May pulls a Clottey.

Bro, are you slow? I talked about about a Cotto's jab against an orthodox fighter in Mayweather and you're using an example of Cotto's jab used against a southpaw lol. Of course Manny could counter Cotto's jab, longer range of distance to find the target dummy. A jab is terrible weapon against a southpaw.

**** outta here with your junk science. Ask any of the orthodox fighters both guys have fought in common which got there faster, Cotto's jab or Pac's straight left. Most of them will tell you Pac's punch came at them so quick and from such a weird angle that they had no idea where it even came from.



I can hear it now...

'Cotto's jab couldn't knock Mosley down buh buh buh his straight left can? Come on man. That don't make no sense.'

Now I can tell you've never boxed lol. Any trainer will tell you the same thing I just told you. Get out of here with your ignorance. Didn't Cotto drop Clottey with a jab?? Did Manny drop Clottey with his "fast straight left?"
No. so shut the **** up and learn the science of boxing.

Have no dog in this argument but ummm Clottey fought both men completely different from the other. Clottey nullified most of Pacquaio's onslaught by keeping a high guard at the expense of his own output. Listen to what emannuel steward says in the 12th round of that fight.

Clottey didn't want to have anything to do with a fight, that's the only reason he wasn't broken down by that straight left. 'Fighting' like Clottey is the only way a 38 year old Floyd would be able to consistently avoid that punch.

But hopefully Mr. Fight Smarter, Not Harder will finally sign the contract and announce this thing that's been 6 years in the making and we can see theories being turned into reality.

Just like a 38 year old Marquez did against a younger (Pre devastating knockout) Pacquiao in their 3rd fight? Clottey walked towards Manny and Floyd doesn't fight that way. Floyd will fight Manny in a broken rhythm and that's how he'll avoid the straight left.

He'll have trouble adjusting at first but after a few rounds its game over for Manny
