What will floyd do when Manny actually hits him?

JMM was abelto hurt and wobble Pac where Cotto couldnt

Cotto did Wobble Pac a bit you can take a look at the replay he just didn't followed up with anything else.

Floyd will run like a Girl when Manny hits him... He'll call his dad and uncle with tears flowing down in his face and cry like a ***** and said... "This guy is hitting me so hard which is not part of the script..."lol

Pacquiao being a southpaw is going to make his defensive game a little uneven, he will have to resort to a Winky Wright style defense (much like he did against the southpaws he had faced). However, this defense simply isn't as good as his traditional defense he uses against orthodox fighters.

Once again, me and you seem to be on the same page. I've been saying the same thing as the bolded part -- Floyd's defense was not crafted to deal with such an unorthodox fighter as Pacquiao. Factoring Pacquiao's power and speed, it makes me wonder how he will deal with it.

As for "Smirk at Pac and counter with a sharp and accurate punch."

Those counters might not even make Manny flinch. Contrary, he will probably enjoy them and ask for a few more. LOL. If a top class Welter such as Cotto was terrified of Manny's power, I don't see Fragile Floyd reacting too well.

Drained at 130?

147lb Pacquiao is a different beast entirely.

I think Pacquiao was better at the lower weight classes. Its just that he retained the speed,(he is a bit slower at 147) and his power has not increased, rather he hits just as hard at 147 as he did at 130. The difference is that guys like morales, barerra, and marquez were GREAT fighters.

Floyds defense is great, no doubt about that. He is a defensive first fighter, this is why he never throws combinations.

Pacquiao being a southpaw is going to make his defensive game a little uneven, he will have to resort to a Winky Wright style defense (much like he did against the southpaws he had faced). However, this defense simply isn't as good as his traditional defense he uses against orthodox fighters.

Anyways, regardless of skill etc, what will Floyd do when Manny does land on him? It seems all of Manny's punches do damage, even his jabs. Cottos face was red and had a little nick by round 2. Everyone Pacquiao has faced has developed swelling from 1 or 2 punches even. So what's the deal here? Floyd is the smallest guy Pacquiao will have faced since David Diaz. I don't buy into Floyd being that big, it's easy to look big beside a blown up featherweight - but that doesn't change the fact that Ricky Hatton was throwing him around like a ragdoll for 6 rounds that people seem to forget.

he doesnt go into a defensive shell he fights back!
