I keep thinking can Mayweather outpoint Manny over 12 rounds?, Manny's punch output and work rate is very high, can Mayweather match or out punch him?. I know Mayweather slips and blocks alot of shots but Manny dont stop punching and is very accurate with his shots in out fast.

mayweather is one of the fittest fighters in the world right now, he won't throw as many punches, but, I believe, will land more punches.

He can make Pac drop his workrate as Marquez did

exactly, don't be fooled by Pac's latest 2 fights, which flattered him. He's good but the real class operators use the brain and talent. DLH and especially Hatton are badly lacking there and size of fanbase cannot cancel that out in the ring.

Yeh Mayweather is by far the fittest fighter in the world today ive heard he spars 15x7minutes rounds with 3 partners a round.
Cannot wait to see him in training next week.
I think if anything Manny will not be able to handle someone thats as fast as him.
It also appears that both Arum and Roach do not fancy the Mayweather fight to be honest. Mayweather is saying Manny will accept no less that a 70-30 split in his favour and Roach is saying he wants Manny to have 1 more fight in October, know full well Floyd will not be ready to fight again until November or December.
I would also rather see Floyd vs Mosley/Cotto

I think PBF will knock him clean out. Floyd is definitely accurate enough to land plenty of shots and Pac looked a little bit shook up when Hatton landed even if it was brief lol

Yes. He is a fitness freak who has a high workrate even if he doesn't have a high punch output. Floyd had no issues with Chavez or N'dous workrate. Both can and did throw abotu 100 punches a round.

Floyd hasn't fought for 18 months. I don't give a damn who you are, you will have rust and you will have lost a bit of your edge after that time.
So I think it highly unlikely he's the fittest boxer in the world.

Truth is no one can be sure, we'll know more after marquez!

he might not have the same sharpness as he had 18 months ago but his train ing he does between fights is as hard as some bxers train for fights

Floyd would make Cotto look silly, don't see why people can't see that.

i have said that since that match has been mooted people say Cotto is most dangerous to PBF i think hes made for Floydy

Ricky Hatton did shake Pacman up, Pacman's neck muscles react in a weak manner when he is hit..!
Floyd Mayweather will prob, knock Pacman out..!
NO MAS

I think that Mayweather will draw Pac Man into his fight... Mayweather will have no sweat with a southpaw... he is so fit and strong.... are they making this at 140lb? :huh

As I said it was brief but it did happen. I didnt notice it when watching live but seen it when I watched it a 2nd time.
He's yet to have his chin tested at these higher weights and you can be sure PBF will land shots. Then we'll see just how good Pac is at ww or lww.
If Floyd beats JMM convincingly I dont think we'll see Pac v PBF. Roach will be depending on Floyd being rusty imo

Pac throws out his arms when he gets buzzed and he did it in the first round. Hatton haters are so blind. Most forget he won the first round Vs Mayweather too. :roll:

For this fight it is clear that Floyd has begun training at fight weight. Not many boxers do that.
mayweather can surely match pq workrate if pq will agree to fight him at 147. but if they fight at 140 or 143 then, i doudt if he can match pq workrate. lossing that much advantage would surely diminish his ability to outbox pq. besides, pq is too fast that mayweather has no complete defense of all the punchess that pq may deliver. in the language of diaz and hatton they did not even see the punchess of pq that knocked out them. on the other hand i did not hear from any of mayweather's oponent claiming the same experience.
