Comments Thread For: Joe Calzaghe Breaks Down Mayweather vs. Pacquaio

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Joe Calzaghe believes Manny Pacquiao must apply heavy pressure and back Floyd Mayweather on to the ropes if he is to have any chance of winning their fight in Las Vegas on Saturday night.

Pacquiao is an eight-weight world champion and widely regarded as one of the greatest boxers of all time, but goes into the bout as underdog given that Mayweather is unbeaten in 47 fights.

Although Calzaghe is tipping Pacquiao to lose, he feels he could be proved wrong if the Filippino maintains a high work rate and volume of punches, just as Marcos Maidana did when troubling Mayweather in the first of their two fights last year.

That's a nice little compilation. I'm sure Floyd will land pretty easily on Pac. What that video doesn't show is what happens when you let your hands go against Manny. Floyd will not be able to dodge all of Manny's shots.

if manny uselessly slaps at the air around floyd while he's being defensive he will win a decision calzaghe-hopkins style.

I hear that Hopkins barely broke a sweat that night due to the constant flow of cool, refreshing air produced by Joe's swinging.

"It was like an air-conditioned ring" Bernard observed.

And if Floyd is truly the better fighter, he'll find a way to win against those slaps. Unfortunately for Hopkins, he was the B-side of his fight with Calzaghe (and a betting underdog).
