    Keeping a distance that Manny isn't comfortable fighting at isn't moving. The Hatton fight, that's moving.
    I thought he stood in the pocket a lot in that fight and against the ropes.

    Only round I'd say he moved a lot was the 9th.

    Baldomir is a fight where he was on the move constantly.

      Pacquiao is too quick, too much energy and not going to run out of gas.

      I can't see what Floyd can do to adapt.

        Did you watch the fight. The first 6 rounds were a clinchfest.

        Only when Hatton got tired and frustrated and lost the plot did Floyd have any real success

          flomos: cotto is a BOSS!! being a free agent and breaking away from top rank! man, cotto is a G, pac needs to take notes from cotto.

          cotto: i think manny's explosiveness is gonna have a huge impact on floyd.

          flomos: its so obvious that cotto is only saying this because roach trains him.

          what happen to cotto being a BOSS again? LOL!!!

              Held it the pocket, till his mate Cortez reset the action.

                maywather will be in pu nching distance literally all fight. ALL FI GHT. problem is pacquiao is shorter and smaller and will not be able to reach mayuweather. mayweatrhe control the distance.

                mayweather will be in range to land every single offensive punch.

                someone please tell me h ow pacquiao will get in range to land on floyd when he lunges in wtih hsi head in the air and doesn't jab


                stoppage round 7-10 easy fight for floyd
                I dont have issues with you picking floyd to win , but saying a stoppage in 7-10 in an EASY fight no less ? even when marquez caught Pac he was losing the fight and was bloody as hell.
                go watch Pac vs Cotto/Margarito/Clottey and other bigger guys then him.
                he has blistering hand speed that catches them offguard with weird angles when they get the high guard up.
                not saying floyd isnt better then them , because he is , but you are delusional if you see an easy fight , Floyd didnt put away someone in ages , and its not going to be against Pac..... Sorry.

                    Yeah, round 9 for sure. In terms of 'recent' fights, he definitely moved more then, than he does now. I'd have to go back and watch again, it just seems like I remember him backing up a lot more in that fight.

                    Which is another reason that I'm not so sure why everyone still calls him a runner.

                      He's a blind homer. Love how Floyd fans always bring up JMM to tAlk down on Pac...who has Floyd fought 3 or 4 times in his career?
