Roach has floyd's defense / blueprint figured out

[Syf]

All roach will do is tell manny to force the fight..thats the game plan to brak mayweathers defense

I don't know if that will be the whole of it, but I am very interested to see what Roach cooks up for an enigma like Mayweather.

Sparring partners, areas of focus in training, ect.

on the surface, it would seem to be true that pac could just bulldoze through Floyd's jab.

But Floyd can put pop in his shots when he so chooses. He just rarely does because his hands are so chronically bad.

I have a feeling this time Floyd will have a chip on his shoulder and something to prove though..

We might see the rare and elusive vintage Floyd

Mayweather is notoriously more offensive vs offensive fighters

Floyd bends over a lot to avoid punches, the uppercut should be utilized as well as pressure and feints to get him to commit to a shoulder roll thing....then stick him where he is exposed.

and when Pac trys to throw his upper floyd will move away or tie him up. Not letting Pac off with his punches and making floyd slip them causing less damage and not fully extending the power of Pac's shots.

It can happen, but floyd is smarter than that, plus he doesn't do the shoulder roll against southpaws.

The BEST way to avoids Manny's shots is to duck or slip. You cant stand in their with him unless your good at it.

Floyd can do both.

I honestly believe roger or anyone on the mayweather camp can outwit nor beat roach in formulating the best gameplan. Currently, he is the man suited for that job (being w/ DLH) and he now has the perfect fighter to execute the strategy. I think what it comes down to is breaking pac PBF's shoulders - defense down and force floyd into an exchange. Floyd's jabs aint gonna do **** when pac can walk through it and burst him with flurries in exchange. The key is complete pressure with proper footwork to put him position for his flurries

well lets not act like he had such a super hard job to do. Diaz, Oscar, Hatton, and Cotto? Thats not much to figure out compared to Floyd. All of those other guys were suspect at the time of the fight, all much slower than Pac, and all have terrible D

[S A M U R A I]

LOL @ the smug *****s.

Things might change when he actually gets hit.

Exactly Jiddu, Roach claims he's gonna "watch every Mayweather fight he can" to come up with a plan so clearly he's not confident in the last "plan" he devised against Floyd, like you say i think they'll try and pressure Floyd, he'll tell Pac to try and get Floyd on the ropes, throw quick combos and then get out of range, the problem is Manny will have to take a chance coming in and more often than not he'll be meeting a lovely counter for his efforts!! , especially when Pac hasn't even got a decent jab in his arsenal.

[screwhead1]

i seriously think that roger and the corner will be the ultimate variable in this fight...the first 3 rounds, they will have to fight three different fights...manny will try and pressure floyd the first round...i don't think it will work so easily...but they will adjust and roger will have to find flaws in manny's game plan...i don't think manny has what it takes to adjust round by round...especially when he gets going...with floyd...that could be his downfall...expect floyd to get progressively better through the fight with manny at a leveled pace...he may turn it up...but his plan won't change...

[MaD RoBoT]

for the record i think Roach had devised a plan for Floyd during DLH

but as you *****s knew already, DLH can't pull the trigger anymore

then Oscar came out saying that it was a wrong gameplan, i call it BS

I don't always laugh at stuff but this is funny.
