Pacquiao already has a strategy against Floyd

[Rodian]

“He (Mayweather) has reached a dead end. He has nowhere to run but to fight me,” said Pacquiao.

“I will try my best to make this a thrilling and entertaining fight. But I doubt if he’s gonna engage me in a slugfest.

“You all know his fighting style. Most of his previous fights, if not all, induced us to sleep.”

Should the fight happen, Pacquiao, who turns 36 on Wednesday, said he will do to Mayweather, 37, what he did to another previously undefeated American, Chris Algieri, who lost to the WBO welterweight champion in Macau last month.


“I know what I have to do. I will chase him wherever he goes just in case he decides to run around the ring. We will devise a good fight plan against him,” Pacquiao said.



------
Pac needs to avoid that right hand though, it should be interesting how he approaches Floyd because he is so different from anyone he's ever fought. And vice versa.

LOL to Manny thinking Floyd fights in a slugfest style, he's hoping for that because he thinks that'll suit him but I think Mayweather will use his superior boxing skills and reach to outpoint MP while making it look relatively easy; if Pac tries that jump in stutter step move he make then he will surely run into the check left hook or straight right as you mentioned.

I don't think he has a chance of outboxing Floyd but if he can force him into a brawl then given his speed and angles it will make it interesting.

I see. Beating Algieri gave Pacquio the blueprint how to beat Floyd, because him and Algieri are so similar and basically on the same level.

[caldo2025]

The only thing that Manny said that i agree with is that Floyd IS at a dead end and has to fight him. After Khan's performance last weekend and the other up and coming stars in the deepest division in boxing, Manny is ACTUALLY now the safest choice for Floyd. Floyd has ALWAYS opted for the safest choice in any situation and now it's Manny.

Khan would earn his keep at the box office but Floyd would be crazy to fight him right now. Khan made Devon Alexander look like he was in slow motion and that's crazy because DA is super quick. So Khan's out. Who else can Floyd fight if not Manny? It's either Khan or Manny. Manny or Khan. Floyd could never sell anyone else unless it's GGG. The only other person would be Thurman. He called Floyd out and proceeded to look awful even though he won every round. He ran all night from a mismatched opponent. But the boo birds he got can't help PPV numbers. Manny or Khan. If i'm Floyd, i'm taking a 36 year old who hasn't KO'd anyone in several years over a 28 year old boxer who is peaking and extremely dangerous. Manny all the way.

say what you want, it is still THE fight.

There's no point in trying to explain it to him he cant read, he made false assumptions to a post I wrote in another thread, I bet even Floyd reads at a better level then him.

It should be obvious that this is what Manny wants even if he never stated, so at some point he had to think it. Only an asswipe like that dumbass digzee cannot comprehend that it must have been a thought Pacquiao had in order for him to come that way in the first place which is why I responded that way.

Who cares? Whatever strategy he comes with, it is unlikely that he will outbox Floyd if he couldn't outbox a shorter, slower and older JMM (both of them are basically counterpunchers).

KGB you wrote "LOL to Manny thinking Floyd fights in a slugfest style" how the fcuk you think that is laughable, he didn't say anything like it and you claim your in his head reading his mind, you wanna get your own head checked up, how many 'slugfest's' has Floyd been in?
Stop embarrassing yourself and go sit in the corner and have a word with yourself.

Wow are you that stupid? Manny mentioned the words slugfest, not me; apparently this must be in his psyche somewhere because he hopes to draw Mayweather into a fight like that so that he will have a better chance of winning because he knows he cannot outbox Floyd.

Floyd has been in 3 slugfests that I know of, what's your point? Manny gets into slugfest often because he doesn't always possess the tools to avoid them or necessarily get out of them. Mayweather doesn't need a slugfest in order to win a fight and neither does MP for that matter but he (Manny) knows or at least thinks it benefits him if they do have that kind of bout.

The fact that he's mentioned it should be enough to let a person with a little intelligence know that he's thought about it but people like you without that "little" intelligence can't seem to grasp that.

Recently , the only times Floyd has looked vunerable is if he's been closed down and forced to fight , , BUT NO ONE HAS HAD THE SPEED OR SKILLS TO MAINTAIN IT . Manny is a southpaw , he's quick on his feet and he throws from angles , so it makes sence to take a tactic off jump on him , make him punch with you hustle him bustle him and try and put him off his rythym , a shot Shane Mosley , had a couple off good moments when putting pressure on Floyd , a fit and focus Paccy , will do a lot more .

Will he do enough , stuffed if i know but it will be worth the ppv money to find out .. any other fight for Floyd , has far has i'm concerned theres only Khan otherwise relagate Floyds fights to who gives a fack , he'll win easy anyway.

I'm not a Floyd hutnugger or hater , i just would'nt waste my money , when theres more competetive fights out there worth my ppv money .

Pacquiao can't cut off the ring to save his life.

I agree with everything you stated except the comment about SSM! Mosely had totally obliterated the man everyone said Floyd ducked in MargoCHEATO and people were saying that he was the man who was going to KO Mayweather but then Floyd took him to school and beat him from pillar to post and then all of a sudden everyone started saying "he got old" or "he was shot".

What happened to all this talk before Floyd beat him up or before he KO'd Margo?

Fair is fair, we cannot have it both ways; Shane wasn't shot, he was just beaten so badly that it looked that way.

[MachoTime]

It's always been that way. The better the fighter is they get criticism for their wins. The fighter that loses takes a step back or more considering the severity of the loss. The more losses the more shot they become.

Mayweather isn't the only fighter ever who receives criticism for beating the other fighter. It's like flipping a coin there is no middle ground. Heads Tails whatever.

[beatdown337]

To anyone that is a Floyd fan, I now realize that there's no point in debating some of these things. I'm a big fan of Floyd "the boxer", but am actually starting to dislike the perception that I am drawing of Floyd "the person". Of course I don't really know him, but I also don't allow how I feel to cause me to make delusional statements about his boxing ability on this forum.

Having said that, I remember when I told people after the first Maidana fight that Floyd chose to stand and trade with Marcos. All the nay sayers paraded around saying that we was "done" and his legs were "shot". Fast forward to the second fight, he moves around and outboxes Maidana on his way to a wide decision only for people to say he ran smh. Cmon guys, seriously?

stop being ridiculous. He cut the ring off well and had great footwork against Algieri who was running all night long.

He also cut the ring off against Marquez (a little too well) and you know what happened.


Pac is gonna need to practice chasing chickens though for Floyd.

You make it sound as though Floyd is going to be running from him? Pac boxed Rios the same way Floyd fought Maidana in the rematch but I guess it's called running when Mayweather does it and boxing when Manny does.

[handsofstone]

everybody has a pan until they get hit

,that one nearly slipped through the net

[SenorPipino]

Manny's comparing Mayweather to Algieri? Okay.

I guess Pacman is very familiar with sleep-inducing performances. He had one in his fourth bout against Marquez.

[BAD INTENTIONS]

Manny's strategy is to continue to be Bob Arum's BITCH, and use that status to avoid the fight.

What happens to the pans after they get hit? We need to know.

Top Rank isn't just Bob Arum. He is the CEO, but Todd DuBoef is the president. He can have his promotional company without Arum. Floyd doesn't necessarily hate TR, he hates Arum.

There was a report a while ago that got attention for a week. It basically outlined that Arum is not being honest with Manny, and that Manny owes Arum millions. This isn't the normal fighter/promoter relationship here.
