Comments Thread For: Marquez: Pacquiao Must Try To Knock Mayweather Out

[HanzGruber]

Maidana wasnt even on the radar. Khan was. Floyd even made a Poll on who the FANS wanted him to fight. 70% picked Khan. Maidana beats Broner and Floyd said *** his fans and picked Maidana! lol Broner a LW that moved up!

Maidana won all the other polls. I'm sure you said he would lose and duck maidana tho before they fought

Who did he beat? The legit champ at 140. He then became a world champ. You must have missed that fight.

Ruslan was robbed of that fight , Algieri will never be heard of again .

Rios coming of loses , feather fisted Algieiri coming of a robbery .

Both never been at WW before .

You got nothing to crow about , Id be embarrassed talking up Rios and Algieri , Floyd would never live it down fighting such low level comp .

Floyd is going to dominate Manny .

I agree with Marquez's assessment, whoever understand Manny better other than any fighter Manny has faced is Marquez. I'm sure Manny learned a valuable lesson the night he got put to sleep by Juan. I noticed, and so have the others here that even though he knew he hurt his opponent he kinda step back and doesn't wanna finish em unlike before. However, it doesn't really necessarily that Manny needed a KO to win. If he could hurt Floyd and wobble him for the judges to see them clearly, he'll get 10-8 on each round he do that. I have a feeling that he can put Floyd on his butt once he hit him either on the jaw, or on his temple. Floyd can hurt Manny as well catching Manny coming in whenever he launges. So, like I stated before it's gonna be a tactical fight for both. Manny have to mix it up with flurries and counters, yes I said it. Manny knows how to counter as well. Use his jab as a measuring stick and repellent. When I say use his jab, I mean a snapping jab. None of those lazy jab that Maidana did.

It will be a boring fight for some because it'll lack of trading of punches, but we will see a lot of holding, pot shot from Floyd. I think that will be their game plans, pot shot, holding, circling around until he catches Manny coming in.

I made some bets already and I know it's a 50/50 right now. But I will put my money for big return. My $100 for Manny will give me almost $300 bucks, whereas if I put my $300 plus just to win a $100? Common sense tells me to place my bet on Manny, although like I said, it's 50/50 right now.

I think Pacquiao should just fight his heart out and take the fight to Mayweather with a hard but reasonably careful attack and lots of punches from all angles. Trying to knock out a guy who has never been knocked down in nearly 50 fights is a long shot and Mayweather is a great counter puncher if he gets wild or careless.

YES, finally someone else said it! I've been saying it for awhile. The only way for anyone to beat Mayweather is to knock him out early. He is so great of a boxer that it makes it almost impossible to beat him on the cards convincingly. You can't blow Mayweather out on the cards it just won't happen. You can make things interesting, others have done it, but it's not enought. It happens every time. The deeper the fight goes, the more it favors Mayweather and if you don't build a good lead early on, Mayweather already won.

In order to beat Mayweather you need to knock him out. Pac's not gonna do it though.

Have you found that statement from Floyd yet? I'm still waiting, or you were just blubbering again?

I agree with you, but what if Manny clearly hurt and wobbles him couple of times and or knock him down, let say twice in different round. Im pretty sure there will be rounds that Manny clearly won. Would it be enough to convince the judges? Manny is as popular as Floyd is, so I don't know why can't Manny
win on the card?

[b Murphington]

No. Obviously paying attention isnt your best quality. I said the KO was more devastating. In Which it was. Floyd was just winning the fight with his blown up JrWW. Not beating him to a pulp. Also his knock down was stopped by the ref while Hatton was on his feet.

When Pac KOd him he was out cold gasping for air and laid on the canvas for a while. Hatton meant losing to Mayweather was worst. Because he was hanging in there with Floyd. To get KOd for being careless was rough to handle. I can see where hes coming from!

nice try though!

If the ref had to step in to save Hatton that means Hatton was in fact getting beaten up by Floyd dumb dumb!

Well I believe that Floyd is tricky enough to pull a Lenoard and steal rds towards the end. Good way to save energy mid rd, turn it up end of a rd, all while your opponent wastes gas. Then again, I don't think I've ever seen Pac outta gas!

Floyds been wobbled before and that could happen again, there is a big possibility that Pac puts rds in the bank early, but it's not easy to make Floyd look bad. See, I just think that to really win on the cards against Mayweather you need to be damn near perfect in your execution. Mayweather has slowed down lately so maybe not perfect you can make mistakes in there, but not many. Score some KDs and make a few 10 - 8 rds, then you have a chance on the cards. If you're not getting any 10 - 8 rds, you're not gonna win on the cards, not against Floyd. Which brings me back to my main point. You need to jump on him. Do some Mike Tyson stuff.
