    If Floyd treats Manny like a smaller opponent I will call him a bully. Wouldn't you?

      Self-imposed sanctions will not allow the texasboi15 to comment until after May 2 2015.

      The fight...is 21 days away.

        When's the last time Manny faced a guy as fast as Mayweather?

        Manny struggled with Marquez' boxing ability and didn't look great v Bradley. Floyd is levels above both these guys. Bottom line, you're not beating Floyd without a jab.

          The two fighters who (Sugar Shane and Zab) rocked and dropped Mayweather were fast and explosive and they were able to shake Money in his prime...Mayweather is now 38 who obviously lost a lot of his athleticism.



          Speed has been Floyd's achilles heel. The only problem with both Zab and Shane is they stopped boxing after 3 rounds. They became predictable. Pacquiao is easily a level higher than both fighters, both in speed, power and conditioning. Pac's style is also a lot harder to figure out. This is why the Pacquiao camp is very confident going in this fight.

            all these questions will be answered come fight night...between a fighter who throws punches and relentlessly attacked his opponent and a fighter who just run, the judges will tend to score in favor of the former...

                Yes. They "stopped boxing". Had nothing to do with Floyd adjusting, huh? How many times did they land those shots after the first time?

                I can't wait till May 3rd.

                  So all Floyd does is run now? He doesn't land any clean, hard, meaningful shots? He just scurries around the ring...

                    He will get countered. Doesn't mean he won't land punches himself. He's faster then any opponent Floyd has fought in ages and his reflexes aren't what they used to be. He was getting beat to the punch by Marcos Maidaina for Christ sake. I'm pretty sure Manny can get some licks in
