Comments Thread For: Arum: Pacquiao Will Shock With Ability To Reach Floyd

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Many pundits believe that the May 2 showdown is one of the most eagerly anticipated in boxing since the classic 1975 'Thrilla in Manila' between Ali and Frazier, and Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum, who promotes Manny Pacquiao, loves the match-up because of its contrasting styles.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. has been the master defensive artist for several years, but Arum is predicting that his boxer has the remedy to hand Mayweather his first career defeat.

"It's a very interesting fight because Floyd is a defensive specialist who has a good right hand and picks off his opponents," Arum told a handful of reporters at the Wild Card Boxing Club. "He's an extraordinarily good fighter.

I'm inclined to agree. I think it's going to be a very rough night for Floyd. He left the fight too late. In their primes, he would have handled Pac much easier.

You just have to believe a bit after seeing the slower Maidana practically walk himself onto Floyd.

Manny doesn't smother or fight in a phone booth. Straight punches from mid range.

Floyd is the master of range he will have Manny outside or inside and beat the sht of Manny in both places , Floyd will spit Mannys combos with accurate counters propping him every time , people not going to believe how dominating Floyd will be in this .

You harp on Maidana not giving a single thought to maybe Floyd had a bad night , maybe arguing on social media the night before the fight showed his lack of focus , he said it was a C grade performance , what in Maidana would make Floyd hungry at this stage of his career , nothing .

You think Manny has had bad nights in his 5 loses , I will tell you something the Manny from his last 5 fights will not touch Floyd in this fight .

Ya but Floyd's 38 and didn't look too sharp in the last 2 fights. Maybe he's aged more than u want to admit and maybe this fight will be a lot closer than you want to admit.

Dude,maidana was countering Floyd in the rematch,making him miss,and had him do the stanky leg at the end of the 3rd round,when he landed the straight right. Do you really think that slow ass maidana would be able to land on Floyd,but Pacquiao who is far faster, and a south paw won't?
