The 144 idea was Mayweather's.
He didn't meet his OWN weight...JMM didn't call any shots.
It wasn't 600K..you don't have to make shit up.
Yes they are very different. But Marquez layed the blueprint. Nobody wins against Pacquiao if they choose to shell up and pot shot. That ain't the formula. Be it a counter puncher or a straight up brawler, you need to take him out of the zone and make him hesitate by making him eat powerful counters before he launch his attack. Bradley tried that on the 2nd fight but he just didn't have the power. Pacquiao is a pitbull and a counterpunch is a shock collar that make him snap out everytime he growls. It's risky to try to be one step ahead of him everytime because he's very fast. You need to have a good pair of balls to do that let alone enough power to get respect from him. Marquez did have both on the 4th fight.Quote:

This is why Marquez loses against lesser skilled technicians who stay on the outside. Against Juan Diaz or Pacquiao her's a monster but against Chris John or Floyd he struggles. Floyd doesn't need the aggression to generate offense.Quote:

Fact #3: Floyd struggles when a fighter gets agressive and throw tons of punches (but most ran out of gas later) - that's the natural style of Pac (and so he won't run out of gas that easily).
Fact #4: Style makes fight, and Manny's style will be a nightmare for Floyd.
Fact #5: So (fill in the blanks) _____will beat _____ this Saturday! (I gave you lots of clues so please do not give wrong answers and make yourselves look like fools;D, just kiddin' babes.;))
Remember, Floyd sort of cheated on Marquez by coming out in the fight over the weight limit.Quote:
