Pacquiao vs Mayweather Official Thread...May 2nd!!!

[ChocolateGiddyUp]

why is Haymon letting him do this

are these the kind of fights and easy paydays you get if you name your first son after him?

They were saying on NSB Mares was calling LSC out on the radio they were both on a show...LSC tried to hide behind Allah N Mares said thats bs Al gives you a list of fighters but doesn't tell you who to fight...LSC said he'd fight Mares in 2 more fights or some shyt

Like I told you breh. This stems from my knowledge of chemistry. Drugs, especially for healthy people have side effects.

 

[Amare's Right Hook]

Drugs are bad.

Won't pretend to act like an expert & I haven't been following this thread but I was wondering if someone could tell me what SHOULD pacquio's game plan be?

Does he have a legitimate shot against mayweather like more than a punchers chance or will mayweather counter punch him all night? What I've seen from manny over the last several years is that he'll fight at a distance in the first part of the round & then blitz in the later parts to steal the rounds, I'm not sure if this tatic will work against mayweather or not.

All I've heard for years & most of the comments leading up the fight is that mayweather will wash him but I just wanted to see if there was anyone here would could bring up a legitmate argument for the ultimate upset for pacquiao.

hes basically a one handed fighter, watch mayweather follow marquezs game plans

keep moving left to avoid pacs left and hit the body and eventually the head

this vid is really good

I think the movement from Manny will initially bother Floyd along with the hand speed kinda like Zab did against him.


If Floyd get the timing down and can stay away from the left hand which is usually set up with a feint, he should be able to take over the fight.

I'm hoping Manny wins but in thinking Floyd will win.

 

[MustafaSTL]

I can't wait for that Legends Speak episode on HBO next week.

 

[GzUp]

How were the episodes?

 

[TheNig]

How were the episodes?

Manny's was boring, as to be expected. Floyd's was over the top, as to be expected.

 

[krackdagawd]

hes basically a one handed fighter,

same punch judah was able to drop Floyd with :cmsas2:

watch mayweather follow marquezs game plans

took Marquez 4 fights to get that gameplan to work.

Floyd was going to Zab's body and got caught while leaping into that punch, Ricky was doing some dancing with the stars shyt right there.

Sounds like you are lookin to move some goalposts friend. :cmsas1:

All I did was enlighten our boxing brehs that Manny does so have a right hand and Mayweather was also knocked down by a southpaw right hook. :cmsas2:

That "dancing with the stars shyt" happened after the punch connected

JK: Thoughts on the fight?

Bernstein: For Pacquiao, he needs to be a volume puncher, throwing at least 800 punches, to overwhelm Floyd Mayweather Jr with volume. He has to come in angles, never a straight line. And avoid walking into the right hand.

Mayweather has to stay off the ropes. Prevent it from being the first Maidana fight. Control the pace. Floyd is like the old Dean Smith North Carolina teams. Next thing you know they are up 15 or 20 points, and you can’t come back because they’re in the four corners. Floyd makes volume punchers non-volume punchers.

JK: The idea that this fight is six years too late?

Bernstein: They are still very effective fighters. Pacquiao has only lost one fight really. And the Marquez fight was a great fight. You could make a case he lost the third fight with Marquez, and in the fourth fight got overzealous but was winning. They are both performing at a high level. They are slightly diminished but they actually make it more interesting, maybe more dangerous, like we saw with Ali and Frazier in Manila.
