Comments Thread For: Clottey: Pacquiao is a Very Tough Fight For Mayweather

[l3xxer]

mayweather's defense is primarily geared towards conventional fighters who throw regular punches from a standard boxing stance. pac, on the other hand, is far from being conventional. he throws non-regular punches from unusual angles in a very unorthodox fighting stance. pac's left straight is like a combo of a cross, a straight and an overhand punch. pac's uppercut is a semi-hook/semi uppercut type of punch thrown from the hip. pac shoots from the hip with many of his punches.

that's why when they finally fight, that will be the first time mayweather will see such type of punches. mayweather can prepare all he can but no boxer can even come close to emulating pac in sparring.

nah, Mr pot shot will beat Pac to a boring decision...

Mosley-Pac or Bradley-Pac thats what I really want to see..

Look, Pacquaio was supposed do what he did against Clottey and Cotto. People had some doubts when Pac fought Dela Hoya but Dela Hoya wasn't the same guy from the past. Pac took care of Hatton like he should of. That being said, to me Floyd will give Pac a lot of problems because Floyd' style isn't like Dela Hoya, Hatton or Cotto because they are guys who will stand toe to toe with other fighters. Floyd has movement unlike any other. Call him a runner but look at most of his fights. His movement, not running, frustrates other fighters. It's called intellengence within the rules. If it were illegal to do what Floyd was doing then he would be finished. But we must understand the sport of boxing before we judge Floyd. I know we love to see two fighters duke it out to a bloody end but that's not boxing, that's an animal fight. I still say Floyd beats Pac by decision by frustrating the hell out of Pac.

i can invision this happening. (but first) I can't wait until May 1st to see Floyd in action against Shane. even if he walks away from that fight without a scratch, Pac is still going to give him some problems, but the beauty of Floyd's style is that he adapts to every fighter and every situation in the ring.

You both see it like I do. I like Pac and he's more exciting than Mayweather BUT that wont change the fact that Mayweather would "technically" beat him.
