    LMAO the most accurate puncher in the sport's history only landing 140 punches? Only if he ends up stopping Manny in the first half of the bout.

        Maidana kept up with Floyd quite easily, he's slow, slightly shorter than Floyd, has a plodding fighting style, even though Floyd won, he should have blown this guy away but he didn't.

        Manny going to bring speed, power, angles and stamina. No wonder Floyd seems to be training for power, they know the only way they can win is to get Manny out of there but that extra muscle is going to slow Floyd down just enough for Manny run circles around him.

        In boxing, you're only as good as your last two fights and Manny has looked alot better than Floyd.

          Harder punches worth more.

          Maidana ring general in a lot of rounds fighting the fight where he wanted it to be fought, and showed more effective aggression .
          "Ring generalship" and "effective aggression" are BOTH subjective. What matters is clean effective punches. Floyd landed the majority of them and had Maidana missing punches regularly.

            If you actually WATCHED the fight, like I just did an hour ago you would see those stats are complete bull****. It doesn't matter what you think!

            In 2 weeks. Manny gets his ass beat and there is NO excuse you can make to stop that.

                  Him barely beating a guy he should have blown away is hardly favoring him, if anything it shows how much he has declined.

                    Can't argue with these guys.
                    Floyd is the alpha and omega, no one has ever or will ever be as great as him.
                    Can't wait to May 2nd so I don't have to listen to this BS anymore.

                      Floyd has underrated power and I know without a doubt he's going to be targeting Pac's liver. You can see it in his bag work. That's a southpaw's biggest weakness.

                      If Pac gets stopped, it will be because of liver shots.
                      Meh, Margarita did the same thing and it only opened up his face for some crisp countershots. Not saying May is as slow as Mayweather but going for Pac's body never worked for any of his opponents.
