Comments Thread For: Fortune: If Maidana Landed, Pacquiao Lands A lot More!

Pacquiao will land more no doubt, likely on the first few rounds, but there's also no doubt Floyd will likely utilize his reach and distance himself after the first few rounds and rely on Skip Bayless to separate the two when too close. It will be a good fight for true boxing fans, but a bad fight for the majority casual fans because they'd expect more exchanges. I'm rooting for Pacquiao, but I see Floyd moving a lot and pot shotting Pacquiao the whole night. And excuses will be, "Floyd ran away the whole fight" after he wins. Then everyone will boo Floyd from that point on.

Originally posted by Scary View PostThey will both hit eachother. Question is, how does Manny take that left hook.
We are gonna see a fight where Floyd is backing, and Pacquiao stalking => Floyds left hook and the damage it can bring => Pacquiao's resiliance => Floyds movement => Pacquiaus movement ==> Who's will is greatest.
Pinch me of punch me. We got a fight!
last but not least. This might be the final time we see, either one of them. The guy who loses might not fight again.
While I agree that Manny needs to be aware of that but at the same time, Manny is coming from the southpaw position at a quick clip. Is Floyd willing to leave himself open for a Manny left? I highly doubt that.
Maybe we are saying the same but its less about will and more about risks. It's not as much will but risks ........ Floyd does not take risks.
