Comments Thread For: Mayweather Ready: I'll Be Very Aggressive, Attack Early

[SkillspayBills]

The more I think of the Judah bout the more I believe Floyd will take this route. I expect a full, unrelenting, vicious body attack for at least 4 rounds straight. Pac does not effectively protect himself to the body.

[Interloper]

He could either be bluffing, or using two-step psychology (appearing to bluff, but actually stating what he's actually going to do).

Either way, that is a calculated statement for him to make. I wouldn't read much into it. We'll find out on Saturday.

Floyd is going to go to the body, I think it was evident in previous fights with southpaws especially against Judah.

In training it looked like he was preparing to attack the body too,
Expect alot of chasing Manny own.

[Hands of Stone]

lmao this is nonsense. You arent psychic and you cant read minds. Mental edge my ass.

Dumb a.ss, how are old are you? 10 years old. Grow Up. I said that might not be the case, just my opinion. Why can't you come up with a perspective? Oh! I forgot. You are probably too young to have one. Read my entire post and u might learn a thing or two about both fighters

Not really. If someone like Tyson would have said what Floyd was saying, you wouldn't call him a liar. Not everyone lies either. They may not want to give out their game plan but that doesn't mean that what they said they will not try to implement it.

Furthermore, when Floyd does what he says, Floyd fans are quick to point out that the fight went the way it did because Floyd had it planned that way. Go compare fight 1 and 2 with Maidana. They will say that Floyd wanted to take more punches in fight 1. Like Floyd said!

As for logical people, ..... maybe you are new here but some are not as logical as you make them out to be and need to be reminded every time ..... not that they will agree ........

Floyd won both fights with Maidana on my score card. The first fight was close 7-5 victory but the second fight was a boxing clinic which probaly says he over looked him in the first fight and better prepared himself for the rematch

For the record I would call tyson a liar, he had every excuse you could think of when he lost his title to Buster.He definitely isnt above lieing or undermining another mans accomplishments or creating controversy to get himself in the spotlight.

I said ages ago in master thread Floyd will go to body

Floyd has been In centre of ring more vs southpaws

He will still move a lot laterally . It's up to pacquaio to back him up with feints

Floyd wants PAC to be tentative. Wants PAC to respect his power early. And PAC will want to come out strong to now allow Floyd build confidence.

If Floyd takes the lead, it's a mistake IMO because it opens himself up more and PAC is a good explosive counter puncher

If Floyd gives the impression he wants to press action and then draw shots and counter or potshot then move then I personally think that's the strategy. Floyd will want to hypnotise PAC, have him second guess. Midrange PAC must just keep ambushing and throw . Maidana only threw when he was inside in the second fight. PAC will hopefully try to throw when they arms length away.

But we'll see what happens. I think close pacquaio decision.

I think he'll have the better gameplan and thus perform better on the night.

That doesn't mean he's the better fighter.

[Slick_Rick]

This is what he said when he fought Maidana.

I expect him to keep his distance and counter Manny when he lunges in. No way hes going to get into a fire fight with Manny.

The more I think of the Judah bout the more I believe Floyd will take this route. I expect a full, unrelenting, vicious body attack for at least 4 rounds straight. Pac does not effectively protect himself to the body.

I hope Floyd goes to the body too. Manny being 3 inches shorter means Floyd is going to have to expose himself quite a bit to reach him and Manny doesn't have the strength to smother Floyd all over the ropes. He'll be in and out, in and out... I hope Floyd goes to the body that's great for Manny.

[_original_]

I expect Floyd to recreate a more polished version of the Marquez VS Pacquiao III fight, fighting with lateral movement, feints, using distance and firing quick shots. Watch that fight, Manny was completely lost, frustrated and had no answers and couldn't make any adjustments. If Floyd tries to walk down Manny and put pressure, I feel that could be a big mistake and would give Manny more opportunities.

[JaguaresMx]

I called it! I am like Hectari but not about the Rios jab. He doesn't throw enough punches to just sit back.

This is Hearns Hagler! (let me dream)
