He's gonna fight moving off his back foot taking full advantage of his height and reach... Frustrating Manny to gamble and throw more.... He's gonna shade Manny fight away from his left... In the center of the ring... He's gonna land one twos at will... Against the ropes he's gonna attack the body and lean on him. He's not gonna need to tie Manny up bc he's the bigger fighter and it negates his reach advantage. Manny better be in the best shape ever. He's gonna be spending a lot of energy trying to land... With Floyd being in the shape that his in. Conditioning wont be a problem and if shade him away from the left hand and make manny work for every opening. Muscling him against the ropes and working the body. Manny either gasses and get walked down. Gamble and get tagged and go gun shy like all the others. Or Freddie stops Manny on the stool and use cramps as an excuse...
      Really good breakdown and strategy. But, I just can't see it.
      I notice a lot of Floyd's fans theory on him winning revolves around he'll be able to hit Manny, but Pac won't can't touch Floyd. Don't understand how that's possible, Manny doesn't have the greatest defense but he's fients and movement don't make him an easy target, along with, when you open up you give him opportunities as well. Also Floyd hasn't looked as sharp lately.
      Second, this thing where Manny will stop throwing once he gets countered a couple times isn't going to happen. Even in his fights with JMM after the KD he still kept coming forward.
      I'm expecting both guys to be ready and a great fight. Pac getting the nod, setting up the rematch.

            Well when one of those titles is punt and actual major title (ring mag) and is essentially and "opinion title" and another is for a belt that was vacated at a catchweight against a guy who hadn't won anything in quite some time after getting caught cheating in the worst way possible.... Yeaaa you see where I'm headed with this. You can scoop up a few belts under those circumstances. I won't fully discredit that accomplishment but if all of Manny's titles in however many weight classes are 100% legit then so are Guererro and Broners ... They clearly aren't.

                He's not an 8 division WORLD TITLE Champ... why don't you fact check that(World Title Championship fights are for WBA "super", WBC, IBF, and WBO championship belts). That 154lbs "title" though is the biggest farce I've seen. Why hasn't Manny fought more current or former world champions than Floyd then? Why hasn't Manny earned as many world championship belts? Manny has more fights than Floyd in all these divisions yet he's still behind in those categories. Also both Manny and Floyd are tied with 4 Lineal titles... Floyd's are at higher weights too. Manny's accolades are smoke and mirrors that morons eat up like rice.

                Manny is a great fighter but the fraudulent accolades(Floyd's the fraud doe) and the fanboys touting them are hilarious. I bet most of you Manny fanboys didn't even watch or know of most of his career prior to him fighting the dehydrated zombie of Oscar. Like Manny getting KO'd by Torrecampo, KO'd by Singsurat, knocked down by a damn jab by Hussein, the ugly Sanchez fight(coincidentally on a Mayweather card lol), never getting a non disputed win against Marquez(the 1st fight knocked Marquez down 3 times in the 1st round but Manny couldn't finish him and pretty much got schooled the rest of the fight lol), losing to Erik Morales in the 1st fight(Itchy socks doe. Blood drawn too close to the fight made him weak doe), etc... All most of you know is from the De La Hoya fight on... the cherry picking yet call Floyd the cherry picker lol.

                      With the way Manny's team is talking about Floyd had a better shot before(after admitting that they left the negotiation table due to the more stringent drug testing too), and how Floyd now has no legs, it almost seems like they are implying they are in fact cherry picking Floyd now.

                      I still remember when Mosley was too good and needed to fight at like 142lbs... then he got beat by Floyd, looked like shit against Mora, and next thing you know Manny will now fight him at 147lbs lol.

                      If Floyd fought junior welterweights making their welterweight debut or having only 1 welterweight fight against a guy like Abregu prior to fighting him it would be a cherry pick. I can only imagine the shit talk if Floyd fought guys coming off losses or looking like shit before fighting him. Imagine the backlash of Floyd fighting an Algieri making his welterweight debut off that Provodnikov fight and catch weighting him also for his advantage. Imagine Floyd fighting a farce like the Margarito fight was.
