Floyd actually had success walking Mosley down. He stayed in the pocket against Canelo. I think the smart strategy would be to try and walk Manny down. Because he's the bigger man. He can work from a safe distance behind his jab. Plus, Manny isn't real good going backwards.No i never said Mike Was better than Floyd. All i know is Mike was very generous with friends in Brooklyn, and he was always hanging there. Floyd on the other hand has been in Vegas, Spends too much money betting , etc. However all of the sudden many who were calling him duck and chicken are all now saying oh he is a monster! He's gonna walk down Pacquaio. ReallY!!!! Last i saw he wasn't hurting anyone except when he cheap shotted them. You make good points , but alot of these clowns who claim Floyd is going to merck Pac don't know much about boxing. It is going to be a good fight with Mayweather winning a unanimous decision like 116-112, 115-113, and 115-113.Comment

I just wish that is the plan but lets face it, Floyd is not that kind of a fighter.Floyd actually had success walking Mosley down. He stayed in the pocket against Canelo.

Yes, he may have done it a bit against Mosley but Floyd said why that was the game plan. Mosley was getting older and inactive. Even then, Floyd fought cautiously.
Same goes with Canelo. They knew who Canelo was and they tried to exploit his weaknesses. Even then, Floyd was very cautious and only tried a few times ..... and that was in part due to Canelo setting up a trap.
Manny will not be fighting like Mosley and Canelo. Floyd knows that if Manny is on his game, he will not be showing stamina issues and can keep up a temp that is much higher than Floyd's.Comment

Most of the discussion from the Manny faithful leading up points to an old Floyd fighting a primed Manny. That's not the case homie. Manny isn't the energizer bunny any more. He has flashes of that. But Floyd isn't fighting a guy that's gonna be fighting at a fast pace for three minutes a round. There will be lulls. And in those lulls, I wouldn't be shocked at all to see Floyd backing Manny up, cautiously working behind his jab. And scoring with lead straight right hands that Manny has a hard time avoiding.I just wish that is the plan but lets face it, Floyd is not that kind of a fighter.

Well you did now use the word cautiously, so that is possible and you are right that Manny is not prime anymore. So he will not be fighting for 3 full minute rounds like he used to.Most of the discussion from the Manny faithful leading up points to an old Floyd fighting a primed Manny.

Floyd knows that even this version of Manny is not going to be easy. Look at Bradley when he tried backing up Manny. Manny comes right back ......Comment
