Comments Thread For: Buster Douglas: Pacquiao Would Beat Mayweather, Maybe By KO

[Mike D]

I still think Manny woulda had a legitimate shot pre-Marquez KO

Floyd is so incredibly prolific though defensively, and with his masterful counter game that it would still have been doubtful for a prime Manny...but a prime Manny woulda at least had a real shot

But the Marquez KO totally changed him. He became way more of a boxer -- and is now incredibly calculated with his risks. Before JMM 4 he threw caution to the wind. Now he's soooooooooooooo much more selective and cautious.

Manny's actually a very underrated boxer...he's 5-1 since the Marquez KO and got all five W's by simply boxing for the most part. With the only loss to the best boxer of the generation.

But yeah, trying to box with Floyd Mayweather...that's a recipe for a surefire UD loss. Which is what happened that night. Manny tried to box him. To have had any shot Manny would've had to have been the Manny of old -- the Manny who would throw a thousand punches in a fight. And that version of Manny became totally extinct after Marquez blasted him.

you can't anybody while only winning 2 rounds

You can't count punches Floyd missed as landed. Pac outpointed him, that's the best way to describe it.

Douglas was a 47-1 underdog in his fight with Tyson. But his mother had just died and he fought with the heart of a lion.
In his following fight with Hollyfield, he was bloated and had no desire; and retired after the loss.

Manny already beat Floyd in Floyd's own game and with one good arm

[Mr. Luthor]

Seriously, why is anyone interviewing Buster Douglas?

[SN!PER]

I think what Buster is trying to say is that he wants to fight Floyd Mayweather.

MANNY THE CHERRYPICKER IS BUSY FIGHTING BUMS LIKE VARGAS AND JEFF HORN THESE DAYS

I literally had to look up to see the last time Pacquiao had a KO. The closest Mayweather came to a KD was his glove touching the canvas. Ok Buster...
