        I'm going to pull those fights to watch tonight .... Its been a while since I watched them.
        The problem with fighting manny while he's going back is that he can stop on a dime and whack you with a straight left or catch you with a right hook coming in.

        If you want to make the fight hard for manny, then you have to force him to set up the left hand.

            The fight that we've been asking for is fast approaching. Why not stop being a fanboy for a change and discuss the coming fight like mature people that loves the sport of boxing?
            I agree. It's easy to get caught up with it. Most people do it for fun, some crosses the line.


            At the same time some loves to dish it but they don't know how to ever take it...

              Jab and straight rights, until Manny starts to reach and the combo will change to right hand left hook.

              Then it is about all over but the screaming and shouting.

                  I think Mayweather biggest tools are his lateral unpredictable side-to-side movement and clinching.

                  I think Mayweather is gonna **** his trunks when he sees the footspeed of Pac... Mayweather is gonna be forced to work those old, shot legs. And when he tries to initiate clinches Manny will fire off fast combos to the body and head.

                  Can't wait. Gonna eat pizza, popcorn, and soda

                      He has a couple rounds to make that work, the difference is Floyd knows about that left hand, Manny and Freddy are prepared for the distance and the South-paw killer but the hook will be the surprise because Manny is normally perfectly fine against the hook but that was against 1 handed fighters.

                      It is easy to find a way out when one hand is way weaker than the other, both guys can fight with both hands it is one of the huge advantages they normally have in a fight. I still think Floyd's left is more educated than Manny's right, but adjusting to a guy that can throw with both hands is something both guys will have to deal with.
