      I HATE triangle theories, but Let me ask you some questions:

      Did you watch Pacquiao vs Clottey fight?
      Who was the bigger man?
      Who had the longer reach?
      Did Clottey use a high guard?
      Was the high guard effective?
      Did Manny get frustrated?
      Did Clottey touch Manny?

      Simple yes or no answers will suffice.

        Scorecard unanimous decision for Pac: 120-108, 119-109, 119-109.

          i dont know what your agenda is, just like to point out that you can't compare floyds high guard to clottey's, clottey's guard is much better than mayweather's, who still has massive openings with the high guard and most of the time it's for show, he'll still just make you miss rather than block

          he only really uses it when being overwhelmed, usually after being knocked out of the shoulder roll(which usually comes from one good punch)

            Wow almost all of them favour Mayweather for the win, Hopkins had it spot on imo, first 6 rounds will be all guns blazing but Floyd will adjust and get the decision

                  Do you think manny can landed over 220 punches on floyd?
                  maidana landed 221 punches out of 858 punches thrown on mayweather vs maidana 1

                  that's the most punches landed on floyd head and body in his career so far,
                  unless manny can thrown over 900 punches over 12 rounds to floyd i dont think manny have a chance to win by decision,
                  as much as want an asian man to be in the top 5 best boxers of all time,

                  here's why i think manny will not win by decision :
                  - kenny bayless, he save floyd from maidana brawler style quite a lot of times during their 2nd matchup
                  - all the judges are from american and i dont think they really want a filipino boxer/politician beat US best boxer in this generation on their soil land
                  - the Nevada State Athletic Commission really love floyd because he's bring a lot of money and invite a lot of high stake players at the same time to vegas,
                  even when he guilty of domestic abuse they don't banned him from boxing (unlike players from NFL or so with domestic abuse record that been banned for long months)
                  - i heard floyd's team have been controlling the ticket distribution so they be able to arrange for the audience demographic to be more floyd's supporter

                  so either he have to throw over 900 punches carefully over 12 rounds (because floyd better counter puncher than marquez) and hope he win by decision in front of 3 american boxing judges
                  or manny have to KO him early before he run out of stamina
                  because Floyd's MO (method of operation) is he usually give up the first 5 round then at round 6 he start to get really tactical, running, clinching, and so on

                  Like oscar de la hoya said : my head says floyd, my heart says manny,

                      castillo outlanded mayweather by a big margin and only threw around 500 punches total

                      defense will also play a part
