Why do ppl say Floyd waited for Pac to get older? Floyd is 2 years older

[aboutfkntime]

Freddie Roach admitted to Brian Kenny, that the fight died because Pacquiao refused random blood tests...

when Kenny asked Roach if fans would accept their reasons for killing the fight... Roach admitted that fans would find that su****ious

fans still do find that su****ious... pac-tards however, do not

that is only the difference here

FACT: Pacquiao could have simply agreed to take a harmless blood test

just like he did eventually, anyways

haha

nailed the main point perfectly, as usual

How the rest of society treats Pacbois....

I think it's more appropriate to say that TBE (not The Best Ever) waited for GrandPac to slow down... Which is good because the fight happened after the GrandPac Massacre...

Floyd was more shot than Manny when they fought. Manny is still beating top 5 welters years later whereas Floyd looked severely diminished against Berto and Connor despite easily winning.

Boxers age differently.

Surprise.

Both of which came after Pacquiao

He looked good against Maidana in the second fight.

Nope, Floyd ducked prime Manny. Everybody and they mama knows that, unless you’re a Fl 0 m 0.

The dumbest argument in boxing history. Floyd was always 2 years older than Pacquiao. Made zero sense for for him to wait out Pac because he was aging just as fast too. In fact it made more sense for Floyd to fight Manny in 2009 which he tried to do before the steroids testing got in the way.

Floyd was 38 years old during the fight. Floyd never gets credit for dominating an atg at such an advanced age. At the same age, Muhammad Ali was getting his ass beat by Larry Holmes and everyone cited Ali's age as an excuse to downplay Holmes victory.

Because offensive-styled fighters tend to age faster than defensive ones.. hopkins aged gracefully than roy jones..

Look at their primes.. floyd at 36 still look like the way he did when he was 29.. while pac is nowhere close to where he is.

Floyd’s style has always been conservative.. countering and waiting for his opponents to make mistakes while he stays most of the time in the back foot..while manny requires a young man’s game.. his explosiveness and angles requires a whole lot of energy and gears.

Floyd has been throwing 300-500 punches in his prime.. while pac throws 600 to 800.
But in 2015 pac could barely throw that number.

No guarantee that prime to prime pac would have beaten floyd.. but surely that version was more dangerous than the one floyd fought.. and definitely we would have seen a better fight.

He didn't. He is vastly more skilled and experienced than Maidana but he was not close to prime there. His reflexes were diminished. Looked like his body couldn't execute what his mind wanted at times. Floyd looked shaky against Maidana compared to his prime, and looked pretty **** in his fights after PAC. PAC was still beating top welters 4 years later. Floyd was more shot, he just happens to be better than PAC
