This is PACQUIAO!!

There's a reason why Mayweather did not want this fight. There's a reason why Mayweather is talking about retirement and boxing is not fun anymore. The day of reckoning has come.

He's already giving himself pet talks, saying he will still be a winner even if he loses the fight. He's getting himself ready to face the inevitable.

There's always an UPSET...

Pacman has the ability to do it!
He has shown how to recover from KO loss, scored 3 victories, 2 of them from previously UNDEFEATED CHAMPS! Floyd jr.,is the 3rd undefeated Champ that Pacman gonna fight! And he's READY!

Come what MAY...WEATHER gonna be raining with punches and there gonna be a wild uproar of fans once the brawl starts and heat up with "reckless, fast and furious Pacman", against the "defensive genius hit and run Floyd Jr."

That's what everyone says until they get into the ring with mayweather.

Everyone isn't one of the greatest offensive fighters ever.

Yes he will have to stay in Floyd's chest and give him no time to think

Pacquiao isn't an inside fighter nor is this a good tactic, Floyd would just hold and get away with it

[D4thincarnation]

Floyd cannot match Pacquiao for fitness, if Pacquiao set a high pace forces Floyd to work Floyd will fall apart late on in the fight.

Pacquiao will need to win every round convincingly because Floyd could get a home town decision

not really...Most people get bpred and fall asleep. As for the fighters. The paid off hand picked cherry picked opponents...weren't top notch anyways

People think he'll be reckless, the thing is he won't be reckless.. He is focusing on his foot speed in training to be able to get in and out more often..

His blue print on how he dismantled Delahoya and cotto is at play here. He won't give Floyd time to think. Floyd will be forced to brawl.


Lastly, what's the difference between Marvin Hagler and Pacquaio?

Pacquaio has foot speed to take advantage of the ring like a boxer and uses angles. Marvin Hagger was just a slugger who's too slow in his feet, hence sugar ray Leonard just kept on pot shotting him and moved away as a result sugar ray picked him apart . Pacquiao is different beast than haggler, he has everything, speed, power, a fighter and a boxer 's mentality all in one.

Pac is a Marvin Haggler with foot speed and combination punches. That's the Fighter Floyd will be facing on may 2.

i wonder if people realize manny is a vastly different fighter from what he used to be as well. i dont think it dawns on ppl that he neither has the same output as before or the same work rate as before and he is prone to taking rounds off as well. hes not gonna be on mayweather every round. hes not capable of doing that. in fact for the most part his style has evolved into a more boxer esque one. hes no longer the swarmer he used to be. but ppl will realize that on may 2nd.

I truly hope this is Manny strategy; cause if it is he may get stopped. Manny has lost explosivesness not power and speed. He fights in spurts because his body won't allow him to throw 100 punches a round anymore that's why he's in 50-70 range now. If he tries to throw punches all 3 minutes he's going to burn out and get beat up. The same way if Floyd tried to move all 3 minutes hisefs would fail him.

That is why Floyd finally accepted a fight in 2015. Floyd admitted that Manny is no longer the same fighter that he used to be.
