You said Floyd has 6 losses in the amateur, so how is Roach an idiot when the threat title is Roach says Floyd was defeated once and he will taste it again?

Because he is bringing up amateurs and you amateurs eat it up like candy. Amateurs and Pro are completely different. The idiots on this site is mind boggling.

Floyd will beat the *** out of Pac on May 2nd that Pac will forget to thank the Jesus guy postfight. This will not be close or controversial. Floyd KOs Pac in 6 or 8 rounds.

Pac should thank ***roach for pissing Floyd off. Floyd will not move much from this guy. He'll fight him inside and beat him to the punch. Pac will be the one doing the running. Watch and learn.

I'd love for Roger to be in Floyd's corner. I don't like Floyd Sr. much as the trainer in this fight. I wanna see an aggressive Floyd, as he has always been against southpaws. That's the only thing I agree with in all of ***roach's mouth diarrhea.

Don't see how anyone doesn't think this is a close fight. Mayweather hasn't had a legit ko in 8 fights. and only 1 in app 12 fights. So, yeah, he coold land the perfect punch like he did vs Hatton or like JMM did v. Pac, but it's very unlikely. in Maidana rematch it really seemed like Floyd has slowed down. Pac doesn't have the same stamina to throw the volume, but his speed hasn't eroded quite as much.
we'll see, but I'd be shocked if Mayweather dominates. I actually think a ko is more likely than a 119-109 score. Bc i just can't see aot of close rds in this fight

i'm Canadian so.....MURICA!

Thats even worse a

I'm starting to get the feeling if Floyd don't knock Manny the **** out, even if he knock Manny down, the judges is going to rob Floyd. Floyd winning is a much negative outcome generally than Pacquaio winning. Pacquaio winning breaks another historic record, actually several historic records and a rematch will become another blockbuster fight. Mayweather must knock this guy out.. He has to kill Pacquao literally to win, because even if PAC is bloodied and outboxed, he's already losing by 7 rounds once the bell ring. That Oscar De La Hoya SD was BS, That Canelo Alvarez MD was BS... They going to rob Floyd, if Floyd don't knock PAC out.

You're right.....the biggest difference is you don't choose your opponents in the amateurs. You box whoever is given to you.

Hello, I see you must be new to boxing.

Let me explain to you how this sport works:

You see, fights are judged on a round by round basis, each round being of equal value. Fights are not scored by total amount of punches thrown and landed.

Since you are obviously new to the sport I will give you an easy hypothetical scenario to illustrate my point:

Fighter A vs Fighter B in a 4 round fight:

Round 1: Fighter A lands 6 punches, Fighter B lands 3
Round 2: Fighter A lands 8 punches Fighter B lands 3
Round 3: Fighter A lands 8 punches Fighter B lands 4.
Round 4: Fighter A lands 5 punches, Fighter B lands 25.

Even though Fighter B has out landed fighter A in total punches, he lost 3 of the 4 rounds and thus loses the fight (even if you scored the last round 10-8 for Fighter B)

In regards to Mayweather vs Castillo I. For the first 6 rounds Floyd did a very good job of controlling the tempo, using his jab and out boxing Castillo in a low-tempo fight.

In the second half, the tempo of the fight picked up dramatically, resulting in a lot more punches being thrown / landed.

Regardless, round 1 counts just as much as round 7.

Now that I have educated you on the subject, please do your best to read up on the sport. You have a lot to learn, young grasshopper.

Brilliant! lmao

[HeGotPacProblem]

Brilliant! lmao

Castillo had steady output of punches throughout the entire fight...so I'm not sure the point of what the lesson was.

You forgot that he fought Gatti instead of tougher fight vs Tszyu, Baldomir instead of Margarito, Maidana instead of Khan. Whether you wanna call it ducking or good matchmaking, Floyd doesn't always seek the toughest fights that the "fans want". That can't be disputed

so I guess you believe floyd would have lost to Tszyu who hatton blew right thru, and he would have lost to margarito who mosley humiliated and cotto thoroughly out boxed in the rematch, and he would have lost to khan who lamont peterson embarrassed, maidana almost knocked out, and garcia knocked into oblivion....it is a brutal sport but its also a business....I don't believe floyd was afraid of any of them, bigger money was with....Gatti was a fan favorite in Atlantic City, Baldomir was popular off his Zab Judah and Anturo Gatti wins and had big country, Argentina following, and Maidana came off a bigger win, Broner than Khan making that 1st fight more appealing. But Floyd would have beat them too and people would have still complained about something

I respect people that know a little something about boxing but there are a bunch of people on this thread that don't know s### about boxing. People are saying that Pac will knock out Floyd or blow right through him. That's funny because the real numbers tell a different story. When you look at their records, both men only have 7 legitimate TKO or KO apiece. But yet people are saying Pac has way more punching power. Pac has been dropped 7 times in his pro career with Floyd only being dropped once (Carlos Hernandez). Both have been hurt quite a few times but Pac has been KO COLD 3 times. People are under rating Floyd's chin and over rating Pac's perceived power. Pac didn't knock out or TKO bradley, algieri, marquez, mosley, margarito, rios, clottey, and an argument can be made he didn't knock out De La hoya either. Floyd's chin is just as formidable as all the above. Pac only has 4 clear knock out stoppages or TKO's on notable or noteworthy opponents or ranked contenders, Morales, Cotto-(could have continued), Hatton, & Diaz. Really? yeah he is a big time killer........be careful Floyd....I just don't see a knock out in this fight especially with Floyd not being stopped by bigger punchers than Pac like Mosley-(remember he stopped Margarito), Corrales, & Alavarez. Meanwhile, Floyd has knocked out or TKO ranked contenders like Diego Corrales, Arturo Gatti, Sharmba Mitchell, Philip Nduo, & Hatton (notice I didn't mention Ortiz). Wake up *******s or maybe your still asleep like Pac-LOL!!!!

Take it from former three-division champion Shane Mosley, who has been in the ring with both Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao. "Pacquiao is a great fighter and a great competitor. [Pacquiao] does have good speed, good power; Mayweather also has good speed and good power. A lot of people don't think he hits as hard, but he does have good power the way he throws his punches," Mosley. "Floyd has the power to hurt [Pacquiao]. Floyd has good underrated power. He likes to make people come to him, and when he hits them they feel it."
