The only thing Judah has in common with Pac is that they are both southpaws, and Mayweather only similarity with Marquez is that they are both right-handed counter punchers.
    This post is accurate.

      Pacquiao is not a explosive, his work rate has dropped and is not as intense, plus the Marquez KO has made him a bit more cautious.
      fixed it for you...no need to thank me!!

        And I'm banking he's not.

        Could the fact that JMM had fought Pacquiao before that fight had something to do with the outcome of the forth fight, or we'll just ignore it?

          Listen man.... I am going for Floyd for the win. Marquez was always a problem for Manny. Once he decided to fight his fight and not Manny's is when he started showing he was the better of the two. Floyd will figure Manny out after rds 3 or 4. Roach don't even have a plan after all these years.

            Why do I say this?

            Back in the day when Pac was fighting Morales.

            Most if not all if ask Pac vs DLH who wins? 99% would say there is no way Pac wins against DLH at any weight and at any time.

            Most if ask Pac vs Hatton who wins? 80% would say there is no way Pac wins against Hatton at any weight and at any time.

            Most if not all if ask Pac vs Cotto who wins? 95% would say there is no way Pac wins against Cotto at any weight and at any time.

            Most if not all if ask Pac vs Margarito who wins? 99% would say there is no way Pac wins against Margarito at any weight and at any time.

            No one predicted or analysed Marquez would knocked Pac out with just one punch for crying out loud. Here we are again analyzing predicting the outcome of the fight LOL

            Not true, I predicted the Danger of Marquez and he was Pacquiao's most dangerous opponent and a tougher fight for him than Floyd

              I think Floyd may try and fix it as well

                Yes Floyd's got a punchers chance in this fight, no more

                  There was a point in time after Pac destroyed Cotto and Margarito that I fought it was a 55/45 in his favour.

                  Really though it was always 50/50 that's why the fight has always been so intriguing.

                  Now I'd say it's a 55/45 in Floyds as he has less miles on the clock.

                  I think it would have been a competitive fight, just so many big advantages for Pacquiao.

                  It is a closer fight now than it was years ago. But less exciting fight as well, Pacquiao being more cautious and Floyd looking to spoil more.

                    You're in for a big surprise my friend.

                    I'm not saying Pac will win, but it won't be a usual "Guerrero" night for Floyd. Pacquiao is one of the best fighters of the last 20 years, and on May 2 Mayweather will find out why.

                      It took May to talk personally to Pac to get it done. Arum was more in the way than anybody else and now he is blaming the Phillipines media, what a jerk.
