      I wonder if it was meant to be kept secret. But Pac wouldn't lie when asked.. so that's how it goes.
      Wow. Saw some Lara clips, his offense and his exit strategy is similar to Floyd except of course he's a bit slower.

        If I was Freddie Roach, I would reach out to Robert Garcia and collaborate on what he saw in Mayweather and incorporate it into his gameplan. Maidana had a lot of success and Garcia undoubtedly had no small part in that.

        Roach doesn't strike me as the type of guy that asks for help though. His pride is his biggest weakness. The best competitors are the ones that will do anything and everything to win.
        Robert is just the cornerman, even they said grandpa Garcia is the real brains of the operation. Doubt they want to lend their tips and tricks to Roach who has beaten him every time too.

              And he did start fairly fast vs de la hoya. He won those early rounds

              Manny has to keep feinting to back Floyd up and then throw a lot of punches

              And hopefully get a gift decision from incompetent judges

              Manny does have great stamina and he throws a lot of punches . Unlike maidana, pacquaio will throw starting from outside range. He has quick enough feet to do that.

              So I'm predicting Vegas judges give credit , as they are notorious for doing, for come forward fighter that throws more punches, and the crowd will be going crazy when anything remotely looks like he landed.

              Pacquaio by controversial decision
              This is as biased a comment I have seen yet. However, I can respect it because you are so honest about it lol.

                PAC sparring Lara shows they also think Floyd will move a lot

                There's still a large contingent of Floyd fans that think Floyd will walk PAC down

                    i've always thought floyd and pac are standup guys.
                    i know this is idle talk
                    butt do you think theirs a possibility of one of them not going all out so's
                    their will be a second fight?
                    i mean they could both retire and live the highlife for ever from the moola from two fights.

                      It's actually dumb because Lara is a southpaw and fights nothing like Mayweather.
