Official Floyd Mayweather- Manny Pacquiao Postfight aftermath discussion

[SplitSecond]

Yeah but he was more wreckless. He's a much smarter fighter now.

doesn't equal better though, the days of pacquiao getting wacked with a good one, clapping his gloves together and coming back with a vengeance to get his seem to be gone

pacquiao before the ko would never had let bradley get away with the right hand in the 4th

[-PBP-]

he's gonna have trouble no matter what he does with pacquiao, these guys think he'll slowly come forward and keep the distance by taking small steps back when pacquiao chooses to charge, but floyd can't keep that up, he's naturally stylistically a fairly flat-footed fighter(esspecially now), and when he's on the offensive, he rarely even takes one step back, and when in that mode he will get boxed to bits

his best bet is keeping the fight as quiet as possible and taking rounds with single digit landed punches, while majority of the time walking away from pacquiao

I was thinking more of landing his right hand lead, smothering to avoid return fire and locking his arms up, wrestling, and working on the inside. Watch Morales smother him, work the body and push him back while avoiding counters.

Khan is not getting the Mayweather fight in September. Thats for damn sure. It will be Brook and then Khan will throw a b1tch fit.

pacquiao isn't flatfooted enough for that to be a strategy, he hasn't fought like he did in the first morales fight, since the first morales fight, he was alot more aggressive oriented and didn't know how to fight backing up, in morales 2 you see a more modern pacquiao, although at a lower lever, if floyd is looking for the inside he's better off walking to pacquiao till he eventually gets on the inside on a pacquiao taking a breather

what's more likely to happen if floyd falls in with right hands

You're wrong. Manny is still trying to take off your head. This is boxing and he understands and knows what he is doing. The violent streak is still there. If Rios hadn't shelled up and threw with Manny, Manny wins by KO. If Algeri didn't damn near run out of the ring, he gets KO'ed. If Bradley didn't run as much as he did, he maybe gets stopped as well. Same with Mosley, etc. Against Bradley, he was fighting a primed fighter who has a lot of heart and will. He has fast hands also. Of course, you're going to get hit, man. That right hand meant nothing. Manny clapped his gloves together and kept on fighting. He ALWAYS responds like a warrior when hit or challenged or when he gets pissed in the ring.

The thread is to talk about Boxing and the fight.

All you do is say dumb fanboy **** then defend it by saying "well the Floyd fans said it!"

Again, both as dumb as each other.

Boxing discourse and its literature don't exactly require a multi-dimensional and complex train of thought. The majority of fans are either influenced by racial bias or lack the understanding to articulate their thoughts, if you are unable to cope with this reality than I suggest you avoid the forums entirely.

exactly 1 month till Mayweather gets ICED!

Floyd screwed up in sparring: Check it out

So I was listening to this guy on youtube who says he has insider info:



If you want the whole thing listen to the whole clip but if you want the gist of it watch from 5:50 - 6:21.

So I commented "Where are your sources saying Mayweather is switching up partners?"

And he says "You won't find an article on it yet. My friend knows the guy who was beat up in that sparring clip"
(My youtube name is Sandro17, you can even look at the comments section)


I couldn't find an article on it...That was on March 28!

Then I wake up like 5 days later and BOOM! This article comes up!



Ellerbe says Mayweather has upped the quality of sparring partners in camp.

So this guy in the vid knows a friend who is in the Mayweather camp and apparently the sparring has been rather crappy. I doubted him at first but he sounds legit

We only have 4 weeks before the fight.Will Floyd be ready with some crappy sparring for the first 2 months?

sounds like the sparring partners weren't testing Floyd enough?
