Back in the day, he'd tap his gloves together when he got hit clean. Then he'd come back and attack his opponent. Pac is fiery in that way.
I can see Floyd standing his ground. But I just don't see Floyd 'walking him down' much. There's a difference.

I thought I dispelled that theory but up it pops again from a Floyd fan
I realise it's your fantasy to have Floyd come forward but it's not gonna happen until the second half of the fight if Floyd is down on the scorecards
Floyd has greater height and reach
If he comes forward PAC will throw that left whilst dipping his head right and spinning off to his right and if Floyd's feet and athleticism can't put him in a position to counter then he's screwed.
"Floyd walks down southpaws"
Floyd walked down Ortiz - a mentally weak fighter and he didn't have the Showtime deal so wanted to be more exciting
Floyd walked down Judah- a mentally weak fighter and same as above. Judah had stamina issues also
Floyd did not walk down Guerrero- a mentally strong fighter . Had Showtime deal
He's more prone to getting hit if he walks forward. Just look at the Corley fight. Pbp/117-111 replied to me saying :
That's completely false. He's the one that needs to watch that fight. Floyd gets tagged several times clean throughout that fight
And that's a trait that's become common with Floyd fans- they don't deal with reality and want Floyd to win so badly they are making stuff up
Class dismissed.. Floyd walked down every other southpaw he fought. Let that soak in while you're in "class."

Floyd will only come forward and walk Manny down if he feels he's trailing in the cards. Floyd has a great feel for knowing where he's at on the scorecards.
Anything can happen if he chooses to do this.

Marquez is mentally strong and he still got walked down, you slob loser. Floyd walked down every other southpaw he fought. Let that soak in while you're in "class."
But he's not gonna walk PAC down
He is gonna fight on the outside
