    Im surprised theres not a lot of fan made promos for this fight. Theres a couple of recent ones, but most of them are from a few years back....I know this is the biggest fight in a long time, but promotion couldve created a lot more buzz for this fight.

      Man I would've been glued to every single 24/7 and every piece of news that came out.

      The lack of promotion makes this fight less substantial and less historic.

      I would have recorded every single 24/7 and probably watch it for years to come to relive the event.

        A faceoff wouldve been great for this fight.

            I noticed some pretty glaring weaknesses in pac's game and Floyd can make this a real boring fight if he wants to.

            Or he can force him to reach and tear him up with counters.
            there has and always will be weaknesses in pac's game.

            technique is not his strength. aside from a very powerful punching form.

            pac's strength are his speed and workrate and stamina.

            if you want perfect mistake free technique you have to look for defensive cuties. an offensive high output fighter will make mistakes.

              I just see a very clear blueprint for beating Pac. I don't want to say it because on the off chance it slipped the mayweather camp and they're focused on a different gameplan, I don't want to talk about it lol

              Pacquiao has one major strength in his offense, and there's one very easy way to take it away. Roach knows this and has added dimensions to Pac's game, but Floyd can still take advantage of them in a way nobody else was able to before.

              Pacquiao's going to train and fight his heart out, we know this, and he always has a fighter's chance. But Floyd is Leonardo Da Vinci when he's in that boxing ring.

              edit: Leonardo Da Vinci with a 5 inch reach advantage.

                Agreed. Floyd not only owns USADA he is making the ring 50x50 so he has plenty of room to hit Manny with his pillow gloves then run away because he is scared of pac's natural power, which is different from the power Floyd gets from designer PED's he's getting from memo/ariza. Floyd needs all this and the home court advantage and the hand picked black ref and the judges Haymon paid off.
                Precisely.

                  The only blueprint within the last 10-13 years is Pac Morales 1, and Pac-JMM 4. Both of those were wars.

                  And arguably in the Morales fight, the cut from the headbutt was a big difference.

                  IMO, the only way for Floyd to win, is if he stands his ground and welcomes exchanges. But he'd have to pick his spots.

                      Yesterday's First take with SRL, how embarrassing to be in front of these idiots, Smith has more sense but even he's clueless. Skip comparing Hagler to Pacquiao?
