Pac running from soft punchesComment
-
Floyd could have hurt hands, healthy hands, numbed hands...whatever. It would be a bit of a stretch to say he is still hitting hard enough to get KO's.
Solid, effectively timed and respect demanding shots? Absolutely, Yes.
Hard, powerful or heavy knockout shots? Not really, no.
It is harder to convince someone that Floyd is going to get a KO than it is to convince them that Floyd's shots will end up demanding respect...Put it that way.
He has enough pop to get your attention, sure. He has the timing and accuracy to make you tentative sooner or later. Combine the two and you have somebody who's punches need to be respected. He is not a knockout guy, simply put. BUT make no mistake - the man had Pacquiao eventually flinching. Not reacting to feints or switching to defence...Flinching. That should tell you all you need to know. See Calabis' last GIF in post 162.Last edited by SthPaw; 05-15-2015, 02:11 PM.Comment

LMAO what an idiot! You got Floyd's **** so far up your ass that you didn't even realize that you just proved the other posters point.
Lesson for the day: Grabbing is illegal in boxing LOL
And about the gif, it clearly shows that Pac's head goes even lower when Mayweather puts his hand on him to push and hold/lock Pac's head so that he could unleash an uppercut and go for the cheap KO. Too bad for him he missed. And Bayless immediately warns him for that.

No need for KO to impress fans. he won easily. it wasnt running its boxing
I am a manny pacquiao fan since birth. I hated floyd when I first open the chapters of his career. But when I studied him more in the latter years, I began to appreciate everything that he is, his beliefs, style and skill. Until I finally can say that I'm not just a fan of manny pacquiao, but a true fan of the sport.
I wasn't really planning on going back here on my account after the May 2 fight. Because I was ashamed of pacquiao's performance. And i didn't have the balls to read the criticisms of everyone here regarding it.
To my surprise, when I checked today, people are still supporting him and his team. And even thought that the fight was close. I totally disagree.
Even for a die hard pac fan like me, I had Floyd winning 10 rounds to 2. It could be 9 rounds to 3 if you are being generous.
At the end of the day you can't beat Floyd mayweather like that. At his own phase and at his own game. The reason why people gave pac a chance in the first place was because they thought he'll make it as awkward as possible for floyd by throwing powershots at different angles. None of that happened.
All night he couldn't find mayweather. Mayweather didn't run. Mayweather was relaxed, focus and sharpshooted at any distance he controlled. While pac was frustrated and didn't know what exactly to do. You can't box a masterboxer, you have to used your own specialty, and pac failed to use his.
Im still skeptical about the shoulder injury. But if its true and they'll rematch, no matter how healthy pacquiao is, if he fights that way again, at Floyd's phase. We'll be getting the same result.Comment
