Something seem off with Pac, i dunno... first Mitt work video will be more telling as far as speed... I'm just saying Floyd look very fast, like as fast as he has ever looked... It's starting to make sense why Floyd took this fight now... I'll be rooting for Manny but I hope his speed is still thereComment

the only problem with this is maidana is very stationary and reaching out with a slow lazy jab and so it's easy for floyd to counter with his right hand. the thing with pacquiao is not only does he throw a quick stiff straight left but he'll quickly step or dart in with it. cotto had success with his jab when he did this same thing but as an orthodox fighter.
you're not going to see manny stand still and reach out with a lazy straight left very often. again, when he throws that straight left he usually will quickly step or dart in with it and there's a lot of speed and power behind it. that's why pacquiao can still catch guys with that power straight left even when they're moving back (because of his quick movement).Last edited by Divine Hammer; 03-20-2015, 06:53 PM.Comment

Keep in mind that the guys Pac did beat to a pulp had great chins. That being Cotto, Margarito, Oscar, Clottey. Floyd does have a good chin and keeps it out of vulnerable positions, but if get's caught and wobbled, his philly shell leaves him much more open to flush shots on the button. I think we will immediately see a huge difference in this fight with Pac's snap and power compared to Floyds.Comment

They have never faced a fighter as fast as each other are. Will be quite interesting to see who reacts with more shock first.Comment
