    Comments Thread For: Floyd Mayweather: Pacquiao Throwing Alot Won't Work

    WBC/WBA welterweight and junior middleweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. (47-0, 26KOs) is not worried about the workrate of WBO champion Manny Pacquiao (57-5-2, 38KOs). The two champions will collide on May 2nd from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

    Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach, who is preparing Pacquiao for the fight at the Wild Card Gym in Hollywood, says his fighter will overwhelm Mayweather with a high volume of punches. Pacquiao has rarely been tired in a fight and throws a lot of punches over a twelve round distance. In his last fight, against Chris Algieri last November, he scored six knockdowns.

    exactly, it is the elbowing a lot, clinching a lot, running a lot and dancing a lot are what works right Floyd?

        Yea it will. .

        Not throwing a lot is what doesn't work

        Floyd limits opponents out put by moving, being at distance, countering first or second shot thrown , fighters get discouraged. They can't even get to him and when they do they hitting shoulders and air.

        PAC will get in and out quickly . Just be throwing more than he's done in recent fights. Feint to back Floyd up and disrupt his rhtymn .

        Maidana got that heavy thud shot

        Manny got the sharp snap zip explosive power- Zab Judah type. And we saw Floyd go down . He didn't see it coming

        Manny has to win early rounds because Floyd will start to take over .

        Manny by decision

        Deal with it

          Floyd will cut Manny's work rate down significantly. Once Manny starts tasting those counter shots he'll become gun shy.

            How is Manny going to get close enough to land without getting countered?

              In all honesty i cant decide who gonna win it! But it would be a great night if the Pacman wins it! If neither fighter goes down or KOed it will propably be a verry close fight. But i see the possibility of both guys getting hurt in this one so anything could happen in this fight.

                When was the last time Floyd faced a guy as fast as Pacman?

                  10 years ago. He's scared of speed.

                    Sorry this is not a valid argument! The same can be said about pac, when was the last time he faced someone as fast, smart and highly skilled as floyd ?
                    The answer: Never !
