It makes sense...
I think Floyd is going to look for the knockout to avoid all that...
I can't watch it right now...it's too long (about 15 minutes).
There is no "way" to beat Floyd though. He's faced multiple HOFers and over 20+ Champions in his career....and none of them could figure him out.
In my opinion, the only way to beat Floyd is to hope you're on and hope he's having an off-night pretty much lol
If I HAD to try and create a game plan, it would consist of alot of jabbing, volume punching, and body work. Everyone tries to hit him up top...but his shoulder roll defense is exquisite. You set yourself up for counters from Floyd by head-hunting him.
Go to his ribs, his liver, his kidneys, his arms...try and knock his left shoulder out of socket or hurt it, so he can't keep it up to defend with and hide his chin behind. Rough him up on the ropes, but don't over extend your stay. 4-5 punch combos to the body and head, and then back away before he counters you.
In the center of the ring, most likely he's gonna out box you, so pump the jab at him and then use a blinder to left hook him to the body and switch it up sometimes to the jab feint, slip, and straight right. Double up and triple up the jab as well. Keep him off balance and guessing. Watch out for his stab jab to the body and keep the counter uppercut ready to throw at him to catch him off balance.
Stay confident as well. Alot of people lose their confidence early...Floyd takes everyone's confidence away. Stay confident in the game plan and stay focused. Confidence takes even the most average of fighters and boosts their ability because they believe what they are doing is working.
Now, at the end of the day, you most likely will be another victim of Floyd since he's ALWAYS on point and on his game, but I think with the right fighter and if Floyd is just "off" that day...we may pull of the upset of this generation

Its all good, because I see what it is with you Floyd stans.. All i can do is sit back and laugh@Black_Jesus well Manny should have known better than kicking the man who took him to the next level to the curb. If Manny is facving Floyd now, allo thanks to Ariza. No wonder he felt like he was more important than Roach. Floyd took both Ariza and Memo off the market. No wonder his neck and shoulders are so much wider now. DAMMMMN
look at Ariza giggling like
Floyd gonna punish dude. Might be Gatti 2.
PBF Floyd is back
..Floyd hires a BALCO chemist as his coach who was indicted for passing around undetectable peds, who also bragged about being able to pass any test and proved it, and PREDICTABLY none of his stans bat an eyelash..
As long as he never fails the drug test, he's clean right?
I mean, "Pacquiao never failed a drug test" is your go-to quote.....so if Floyd doesn't fail, he's good then
Nah because I remember you posting about a loophole in Floyds contract where he could test positive over and over and on his A sample and it wouldn't get reported.... That was you who posted that, yes?
I remember that was the reason Floyd settled in his case against Pacquiao..sounds like your getting a little nervous
i hope your not trying to have any pre fight excuses as why to your boy gets whipped
the pioneer of random drug testing in boxing would never cheat
This is all about mind Games
See On your May 2
Aint nobody nervous bytch nikka.. Floyd can shoot up all the Peds and Xylocaine into his system he wants.. Wont change whats coming to him and the astronomical amount of ether thats coming to you and the rest of the Floyd ball lickers after we snatch that 0..

Not a loophole in Floyd's contract, it's USADA who allows for it
Too bad, Manny should've fought for VADA
Bionic Floyd....tests clean

Press conference next wendsday
Roach: Pacquiao is Fresher/Stronger Than Mayweather
Manny Pacquiao’s trainer, Freddie Roach, believes he has a plan to defeat Floyd Mayweather Jnr in their “Fight of the Century” in May, but he’s keeping his cards close to his chest.
Roach, in Macau to oversee China’s two-time Olympic champion Zou Shiming’s final preparations in his bid to win the IBF world flyweight title on Saturday, was confident his game plan would work and that Pacquiao would win in Las Vegas on May 2.
“I won’t tell you what the game plan is because that will be very silent. The whole Wildcard Gym [in Los Angeles, where Pacquiao is training] will be shut down and we will work out Manny’s best strategy and nobody will watch it,” said Roach.
The 36-year-old Philippines icon (57-5-2, 38 KOs) is preparing for his biggest fight against the 38-year-old Mayweather, who is 47-0-0 with 26 KOs.
“The cameras are only allowed after sparring and after mitts because the game plan is very important in this fight. I have had a plan for five years for this guy [Mayweather],” said the American Hall of Fame trainer.
“It has changed a bit [over the years] because both fighters have changed. But most of it is still intact and I know exactly what I want Manny to do. When I go home to training camp, we’ll start working on it.
“Manny is one of the greatest students I have had. We have been together now for 14 years, it’s very unusual. He’s the best guy in the world,” said Roach, who turns 55 on Thursday.
Roach said he expected a knockout victory in the world’s richest fight “in the late rounds” but said “the main goal is to beat them anyway we can”.
Roach added that both Pacquiao and Mayweather were better fighters five years ago, but that Mayweather has faded “a bit more than Manny”.
“Manny is fresher and stronger.
“I studied him [Mayweather] quite a bit. He’s a good fighter, don’t get me wrong, but he’s a bit boring. We have to dictate the pace of the fight, we have to throw more punches. He’s very defensive.”
Roach will return to the US next week to begin training with Pacquiao and because the fight has caused so much hype in the Philippines the team had to switch training venues to Los Angeles. Pacquiao usually trains in his home town of General Santos but he wants to avoid the commotion back home.
“Manny’s very motivated for this fight,” said Roach, who recently won the Eddie Futch Award for a record seventh time after being named the Boxing Writers’ Association of America Trainer of the Year for 2014.
Before Roach flies back to the US, he has another job to do – to help Zou win the world title as the Chinese star prepares to challenge undefeated Thai Amnat Ruenroeng in the “Showdown at Sands” at the Macao Venetian Cotai Arena.
“He’s [Zou] ready. We just finished working out [in Los Angeles] and he’s tapering down. His weight is good. My birthday is coming up in a couple of days and I told Shiming the only thing I want for my birthday is for him to become my 35th world champion and he told me he will do it.”

English must be your second language like Pacquiao
I said, USADA allows it....there's no loopholes in Floyd's contract.
USADA allows for 2 samples, an A sample and a B sample. If the A sample comes back dirty, then they go to the B sample. Both of them samples have to test dirty before you're deemed positive for steroids by the USADA. VADA deems you positive on the first dirty sample.
Pacquiao should have fought harder for VADA testing
Floyd is about to be on Devil Floyd status and there is nothing Pacquiao can do about it
As far as AB, who you always love to bring up, we seen Ariza cheating with smelling salts, and the test results never came back....they just disappeared like Pacquiao's chances of beating Floyd after The Mega Powers (Ariza and Memo) linked up to boost Floyd's "strength and conditioning" program

Interesting to see the struggle team change their stance on peds all of a sudden

Floyd is a business man and he is making business decisions breh.
I like drug testing and to be honest, their presence gives me pause. I'd prefer for them to not be there. I don't even like the illusion of tainted performances. That said, what I want doesn't mean shyt in the grand scheme of things so we are going to have Bionic Floyd in the ring. nikka going to have arms like Jax from MK.
