Thats why the odds are in Floyds favor... The trouble with this is how are you going to keep Floyd still to land.
Watching the Maidana fight Floyd back peddled and the only way Chino landed was when Floyd was on the ropes. Floyd IS NOT going to stand toe to toe with Pac.
I would love to see how Roach trains Pac in this fight to cut the ring off and keep Floyd in range to hit.
Preperation for both fighters is key.
Odds makers had it right IMO with Floyd -250 but again this is boxing and Pac has been the 1B to Floyds 1A on the P4P list..
...one of the biggest hype jobs ever. People criticize Klitchko. A prime Evander and Tyson would have destroyed this guy.
dont think so, lewis would've kept tyson at the end of the jab and pummeled him..you gotta realize tysons "prime" was only like a three year span ,as soon as douglass beat dat a$$ it was all downhill. .yea he got a lot of knockouts, but against who? bums thats who ..
now a holyfield vs lewis fight in their primes is a toss up

Roach said that the plan is to basically catch floyd on the ropes ,and he said that at this stage Manny has fresher legs ..so im guessing the game plan is just to cut off the ring and blitz floyd on the ropes
Has any British picked Manny? I don't think it's a prejudice of character. More of a style preference. Floyd is all about skills. Manny has speed and power but he's more about will, heart, belief, energy.
Any boxing event that had the names Vitali and Wladmir attached to it was and always will be insignificant.
It does not matter that Lennox rematched or didn't rematch Vitali. There was no significance to a rematch and there would be no significance with no rematch. Either way it don't matter. The Klitschko's don't matter because they ****** the least in a heavyweight division that ****** more than any in boxing history.
The past heavyweight decade was a decade of sparring partners, champions included.
Getting back to subject: Lennox's analysis of Pac/Floyd is respectable. No one cares if Lennox re-matched overrated Vitali. The fight or non-fight would is a non-subject.
Past prime, out of shape Lewis mangled the better Klitschkos face.
Live with it.
And after that Lewis never fought again. The ultimate duck if there ever was on I'd say, and I like Lennox but he pissed himself when he did that to Vitali and he kept coming.
Lewis said Jr has natural ability with rhythm but questions his heart.
I have QUESTIONED JR's HEART for a long time now.
No game fighter would blatantly duck other fighters.
I watched Showtime last evening the Canelo Jr fight. Jr was happy, all the Canelo Kid did was stand still and Jr peppered him with that smirk of his. hahahahaha He was Frankenstein, didn't move his head at the right time, kept throwing crazy shots, and it made JR look great.
In the beginning, JR was SUPER NERVOUS and old daddy May told him to calm down.
Pac is proven GAME, Lewis is saying the same thing in other words
IS JR GAME? The Ring is where that will be answered. HIS UNCLE ROG was not game, just a rough cur with a big punch. He QUIT on his stool
why do you keep saying floyd ducked when the only thing that killed the fight in 2010 was blood testing
Here is Freddie Roach reasoning as to why they avoided random testing :
"In the end," Roach says, "if we had given in on the blood testing, it would have been like giving Mayweather the first round. Why would we do that?
"Manny hates needles. He said that's what cost him the first [Erik] Morales fight [March 2005]. We made a mistake on that one. Nevada has every boxer give blood once a year, and Manny hadn't done that, so we had to do it the night before the fight, just like Mayweather wanted. Manny said it made him weak for three days. Even if they took blood from him 14 days before the fight, that would have meant I lose him on key sparring days 14, 13, and 12 days out." (February 2010)
