    Floyd looks more bulked up than usual.

    This is going to be a more aggressive Floyd that sits down on his punches and throws at a higher rate per round.

    He doesn't want this to go to the judges. He wants to do what Marquez did and finish Pacman as early as possible.

      feels like the wrong tactic. Took 4 fights for marquez to land that and it's doubtful pac will make the same mistake again. Also feels like a mistake to go straight at a guy with the speed. power and awkwardness of manny, feels like you could walk into something. Better tactic from floyd would be his usual approach of feeling him out for a while) maybe being the bigger man for the first time in ages has gone to his head a bit and he thinks he'll be able to walk right through manny or something. IMO if floyd has bulked up looking for the knockout while pac is clearly going for speed and points we could see manny building up quite a big lead

        Going to the judges would be bad for Floyd. But I think that's where it is headed. Both guys have stronger chins than they do arms.

              Floyd is more bulked up because he wants "keep you off" power

              And potentially hurt you if you jump in power and Floyd times the shot

                    I'll believe it when I see it, and I say that because this week out his own mouth he said Manny fights better going backwards, not going forward when he was asked about walking him down.

                    And his comment pretty much tells you he watches tapes.

                      I don't see Floyd fighting at a faster pace than usual. I can see him utilizing all of his physical advantages against Pacquiao by keeping him on the outside with an erect stance, fighting in the center of the ring by circling, not backing up and laying on the ropes but most importantly getting his punches off first especially with the jab. The jab is the most essential key in winning this fight against Pac because he would be able to successfully create the proper spacing and distance in order to neutralize Manny's offense; Which is largely predicated on flurries, combination and volume punching.
