    of course u dont have too!! but what we're trying to say is that if floyd trys to do that with manny he is gonna have to exchange, there is no other way around it. he might be successful one or two attempt but if he plans on walking manny down more than once or twice then good luck.

      Not necessarily. You can smother, lock his arm, throw to the body, etc. Lead right hand, smother him, lock his arm and work the body. That's just one example but there are ways to apply smart pressure without getting into a war.

        Not really. Floyd has a 5 inch reach advantage, and Pac can't fight as well going backwards.

          im not saying he has to get into a war. but he's not gonna walk manny down and get off his shots without eating any in return.

                  It's not going to be Pac's offense that makes it hard for floyd to walk him down, it's going to be his feet.

                    DISTANCE. It's the reason JMM beat Pac. Distance can beat superior hand speed. Floyd will have the exact correct distance to be successful.

                      If Floyd tries to walk him down, the best counter would be to turn him and use lateral movement.
                      I agree with that. But Pac has been a lot more flat footed in his recent fights than he was in say 2009-2010.
