Well, why didn't Floyd fight Margo or Paul Williams since fighters that throw a lot of punches don't bother him? Oh that's right they have a height and reach advantage. And yes they were welterweights. Even though Pac is short in height and reach I think he will give Floyd problems due to his footwork. As long as Pac can keep the energy up and keep moving it will be a close fight . If he slows down he will be in trouble.

Again, when Zab thru his fast punches they connected. Zab just is an inconsistent fighter. If Zab did this (inconsistent) against only Floyd, OK but that is not the case.zab was getting mentally and physically beat down and busted up after round 5 it was slowly becoming a rout
Just because a fighter is overall better or greater doesn't mean they are better at everything
Judah is better than Manny at countering and timing shots...Judah places his shots and he lands flush.....Also Judah had faster defensive reflexes than Manny.....Judah is/was a natural counter puncher so I just cant say Manny will land more because he throws more
Majority of Most of Mayweathers fights he is out thrown by hundreds and outlands his opponents anyway
Maidana,Hatton and Jesus Chavez threw the kitchen sink at him and he ****** it up like a champ and adjusted.
Those that tried to throw the kitchen sink gassed out enough in the 2nd half of those fights that gave Floyd a chance to win it. If Maidana had the stamina he would have done what he did for 12 rounds. Hatton could only be Hatton at 140. At 147, against bigger guys, he tired out.
What's more important than quantity is quality. When Zab thru a quality punch, it gave him an advantage in winning the round. Castillo did the same. Manny can do that too.Comment

Manny will do so but I don't think he'll do it enough to winAgain, when Zab thru his fast punches they connected. Zab just is an inconsistent fighter. If Zab did this (inconsistent) against only Floyd, OK but that is not the case.

Hatton was the bigger guy against Floyd...Floyd was only taller
Hatton started @ 140
Pbf started at 130 and only fought above 140 4x before they met @ 147Comment

Manny showed against Bradley and others that he is a warrior. You come at him, he will come back at you even harder. Zab crumbles and that was Floyd's game plan.
Hatton had a style that was made for 140. He could not do that at 147. It was too tiring for him to do that for 12 rounds against bigger fighters. Hatton never looked good at 147.Comment

If pacmans gameplan is just to try to outthrow mayweather it probably wont work, he will get countered alot and mayweather will use his reach to keep manny at a distance and catch him coming in. And if he does get close mayweather has great defense tooComment

2006-05-13 Ricky Hatton vs Luis Collazo by simbros3
start at 55:25
Ricky struggled at WW. He said himself that he has to grow into WW. He also says that Collozo isnt like a Floyd mayweather yet he struggled with him.
He had two fights a LWW after his first WW bout with Collozo ( that he looked bad in). Floyd saw this and not only did he outweigh Ricky at WW he made him move up with no chance to do it healthy. Like he did with JMM.Comment

If and when Manny lose. Can I ask you will you give floyd credit? If he walks him down and beat him up.

No no no your hedging. I'm talking about walking him down beating him up. The red or the judges don't come into play when a fighter is getting there ass kicked all night. I'm saying if he beats him up or stop him will you give him credit.Comment
