            I wonder if Floyd Snr still doesn't want Floyd to fight Pacquiao.

              Is Manny going to use Lydell Rhodes as a sparring partner for this fight? He used him for the Bradley fight, but I'm not sure using him to prepare for Floyd will have the same effect. Lydell gave him some good work though. He kept Manny at bay with the upper jab and worked behind it well. But there's really no one out there who can prepare Manny for Floyd and vice versa. Floyd isn't going to approach the same way in every round.

                Does anyone think Floyd will come out like a beast because he's working with Ariza... Isn't just a LITTLE strange that Floyd is finally fighting Manny but only after he fired Ariza? And isn't it even stranger that ariza is working with Floyd?

                  Is it weird I don't have a shred of doubt about Floyd's victory? I am......overly confident.

                    It's not weird at all. If Floyd and his camp really look at the tapes and look at the tactics that have offset Manny's offense throughout some of his fights against different opponents, then Floyd can utilize a lot of those tactics and mixes them up with his own tactics and pitch a clear shutout. I don't want it to be a close fight, but i feel like it will be if Floyd gets a bit stubborn in there and let his adrenaline controls him a bit.

                    If he uses his upper-jab to score points, paw the upper jab to set up the right hand downstairs and upstairs, counter over Manny's double jab with the lead straight right, then Floyd should win this fight with ease. As B-Hop said, Floyd can only beat Floyd. He has all the intangibles and skills to make it an easy fight, but if he doesn't execute his game plan the right way and doesn't take advantage of his reach advantage the way a lot of tall opponents failed to do against Manny, then he will leave Manny a lot of chances.

                      That's how I feel as well, I'm worried about the fact that I'm not worried.
