history has shown, Manny has a hard time avoiding right hands, and he needs to address that. Wasnt that what people were saying before the last maidana fight? then immediately afterwards they say he "ran"? And last week that was roach saying floyd would "run". People forget, this is the biggest fight for both trainers and you know Roach is gonna try and get his camera and press time. So next week he'll be back to saying floyd is gonna run, or is it time yet for his KO prediction. He's just trying to get his camera time. Considering that manny hasnt had any ko's in 5yrs, maybe he doesnt have the power anymore (theres drug testing for this fight) and floyd usually tries to come right back after someone tags him, Floyd by ko 7 and world wide acclaim as TBE. (REMEMBER MANNY IS THE LAST HOPE OF ANYONE NEAR FLOYDS WEIGHT OF HAVING A CHANCE OF BEATING HIM (ACCORDING TO THE FANS) Tards are gonna be soooo maaaaddddddd.

these fools will just jump ship and start the "floyd ducking khan and thurman " movement

Floyd probably cares what fans think about him. His big ego wants everybody to think he is TBA. That's probably part of the reason he took this fight. He didn't want to retire with people saying he ducked this fight. The other reason he took this fight is huge money. Does he care about the viewing pleasure of the fans? No, not in my opinion. He just wants the fans to think he clearly won the fight.

Agree Mayweather doesn't care about the fans he's only concern is his health and money. It is good for boxing if Manny beat Floyd.

isn't that the concern of every person on this planet.

Money not so much as health but yes, money is important to me too

I guess Roach missed round 12 of Floyd's last fight. Floyd's legs were perfectly fine running away from Maidana the entire round.

So Freddie Roach is banking on Floyd being shot? That's tze only way he feels Manny has a shot to win? This is the same strategy he had for the 3rd Marquez fight. Roach is bugging not to mention that he has to make a whole new Pacquiao to counter Floyd's style but all Mayweather has to be Mayweather. 12 years and could not figure Marquez out but some how he has Pacquiao figure Floyd out mostly because he thinks Floyd legs are shot? And this guy got trainer of the year how many times?

So how did Floyd outbox Maidana the second time out? Plus it's not like Floyds taken a lot of punishment durning his career. Manny's had more fights and has been beaten up a lot in his career. He's been in a lot of firefights. If anything, Mannys not as fresh as Floyd. But really they're about the same in their rate of decline. I wouldn't say Floyds legs are shot. They're a little worn, but far from shot. If he can move around, not even a lot, but just a little bit here, a little bit there, he'll win.

Also, all the talk about Floyd being shot is gonna give Manny false confidence. He's gonna go into the fight thinking it's gonna be easy. Bad news for Manny.

Maidana is bigger, stronger and a harder puncher than Pacquiao. If you think Pacquiao is going to hurt Mayweather with 1 shot you're mistaken.

IMO if Pac hit Mayweather with the exact same punch Maidana did then yes, he will hurt him with "1 shot," and Pac having less power won't have as much to do with it as you'd like to think.
