Comments Thread For: Arum More Confident Now of Pacquiao Beating Mayweather

[D4thincarnation]

You really think Judah won that fight? You are truly an idiot.

No.

You really think Judah was countering Floyd early and Floyd started to counter him and that is how he turned it around?

[PAC-BOY]

Judah

In way shape or form can you compare Judah to Manny Pacquiao. I dont care if Judah is SPaw or not. Judah is a bum. A higher rated bum. But still in Bum class.

[D4thincarnation]

Had Roger not choke Judah, Judah would not be gassing out at the later stage of the fight

Had the commission disqualified Floyd's team for climbing up in the ring and choking Judah, Judah would have won.

Good point Floyd should have been DQed

He should be confident his client could win...he is his promoter, he is supposed to say that.


The truth is, the fans, promoters, trainers, and analysts cant fight for the fighters.


Mayweather is the favorite and should be the favorite because he holds the most physical and intangible advantages.

1) Accuracy 2)controlling distance/ timing 3) ring iq 4)chin 5)defense 6) height 7) reach 8) and is the bigger physically stronger guy

Manny has the edge in punch output, is very unorthodox, and he hits a lil harder than Floyd at 147

What beats all the physical talents is the human mind and say what you want about Mayweather outside of the ring but inside of it he is one the smartest and calmest fighters ever.


He lifts his game everytime a fighter presses him and adapts and learns from his own mistakes and his opponents.


Manny will be in the fight from round 1-4, after Mayweather gets his timing down and will control the distance.


Mayweather will win a clear decision.


The only way manny can win is by a Jones vs Tarver 2 type one punch kayo, or he will have to repeatedly hurt and drop Floyd and that's just highly unlikely.


People talk about Manny's footwork and it looks good against a plodder but against all around fighters like Bradley, JMM, Morales he didn't look so fast or coordinated and flailed reached with a lot of his punches. When he fights a guy who understands feints, and pivots he looks ordinary.

He also cant fight going backwards or cut the ring off....he will try to fight Floyd in the middle of the ring and it will be fistic suicide....He is not outboxing Mayweather with his smarts, 5 inch reach advantage and 1 1/2 height advantage. He will land some good shots but once he sees he cant land enough of them, he will grow desperate and wild and it will play into Mayweather's game plan


I know that's the scenario pacdiehard fans are hoping for but its not likely.


Im sure, and no doubt in my mind Mayweather will win....he is just the better all around fighter.

Floyds 4th official loss is on the way!

May 2 Arum will be disappointed Mayweather will dominate Pacquiao

[QUOTE=Rath;15402970]

Mayweather promotions doesn't have matchmakers. Arum has had 2 that are in the hof and he never makes fights without checking with them first.

Manny/jmm 4 was 3 fights and 3 years ago. Floyd doesn't fight guys coming off a loss.

So I'm not exactly sure what the point of your response is. Can you tell me why manny and bob accepted no cutoff and 40% but not 50% and a 24 or 14 day cutoff 5 years ago?[/QUOTE]

I don't know exactly what Haymon does for Floyd. what sort of advice he gives.

I am not sure which of these 2 comes of a loss when Floyd fought them Judah or Baldomir.

It's called bending over backwards just to have the fight fans all over the world wants. A poster here said Pac don't want the fight bad enough, so bending over backwards agreeing to all of Floyd's demands merit wanting the fight bad enough?

Now you answer my question, had Pac not agree to all of Floyd's demands would we have this fight we are talking about now?

Haymon is a manager, not a matchmaker. Do you even know what role the matchmaker plays in a promotional company?

Judah, the fight was signed in advance. Not since then. I should have been more specific.

He didn't bend over backwards when he asked Rios for testing did he? So don't avoid the question, answer it.

No we wouldn't, that's not manny doing anything special that's him and bob facing the realization floyd has the leverage and if he wants the fight it will be on floyds terms.

The bottom line is manny agreed to a lesser deal and full testing with no cutoff. Bob and he didn't take it in 09/10 most likely because they didn't want to face that floyd.

It's no different than Shane, odh, or cotto.

LOL at this idiot! Judah had lot like 7 rounds straight by that point and had to land a low blow to get a break. you could easily argue that Judah could have been DQ'd

[therealpugilist]

Good point Floyd should have been DQed

What would it have been some type of moral victory for yall for him to have an L on his record.


I'd rather Mayweather or anyone else take a legit loss than some situational bull.


Judah rabbit punched the dude and hit him in the nuts. Before roger even stepped in the ring, Judah could've got DQ'ed....mentally Judah quit at that point.

Sure Judah "troubled" Mayweather but like always, mid-fight he adapts.....Manny not so much....he is a great, great, fighter but he is predictable and Mayweather picks up on things a lot faster mid fight than Manny does.

[screwhead1]

Manny has footwork and speed but it will be Floyd's ring generalship that nulls all of that and puts pac in frustrating waters. He'll gas out by 8.
