I stopped reading after this... sorry you think running into the turnbuckle was what hurt Hatton there? THe previous two rounds he was getting pounded on and picked apart.To DaxxKhann,I agree Manny could see the Canvas if Shane catches him....We all know that Manny can not resist getting into it and if he gets hit hard he almost like there is no impulse control has to come back instaed of trying to recoupe......I think it might be a better fight then many think it willThats hugger logicMaybe Floyd just softened up Oscar, Hatton, and Mosley so he looks spectacular
Knockouts are overrated at times and fact is though Manny gets props and respect because, well, he's the one actually fighting he'll be meeting Mosley after Mayweather shut him out. I think as long as Pac beats him up nicely...and doesn't get shaken to his heels in round 2...he should get equal acclaim. Its how he fights him and wins, yet to be seen. Think Manny will put himself inside of Mosleys still viable wheel house and can't resist a shoot out...thats why It wouldn't shock me to see Manny on his ass for a moment before its all said and done.
Gloves have big factor to k.o an opponent. You forgot the first Pacquiao-Morales fight. Pacquaio and Roach bellyached that Manny was obliged to use Winning Gloves than KO puncher gloves Cleto Reyes. Manny said he could not KO Morales because of that pillow glove Winning.
So what were you talkin' that gloves do not matter?
Floyd was right, if he wore 8 ounce against Hatton, he could KO Hatton earlier. (or he could damaged his brittle hands, earlier, too) But despite of it, he was able toTKO the English boy later.
Man, 8 ounce and 10 ounce have a lot of difference to damage an opponent.
Again, to reiterate my thesis: AS LONG AS FLOYD AND MANNY WOULD NOT DUKE OUT, WE COULD NOT AVOID PEOPLE TO OPINE THAT A SLUGGISH PERFORMANCE BY MANNY AGAINST SHANE WOULD GENERATE A HELL OF OPINIONS TO PEOPLE who would SPECULATE THAT FLOYD IS MUCH BETTER THAN MANNy.
UMMMMM no the 2 oz are not that much of a difference but OK if you say so...Are you sure you watched the Hatton fight? Maybe you should again because Floyd while he stunned Hatton Ricky was hurt more by the turnbuckle then anything....
Now I understand you have been involved in the music business and all for quite sometime and your song Africa sold quite a bit of singles but this is boxing not 70's and 80's pop......What really determines the factor for punchers is the type of gloves...There are reasons why power punchers like Reyes and boxers or those with bad hands prefer Grant, Everlast etc....Get hit with a 10 oz Reyes glove and get hit with a 10oz Grant glove you will know the difference same for 8oz or any weight for that matter..,.Get hit with a 8oz Grant or Everlast and a 10oz Reyes and you will know the difference and that will be the fact the Reyes huts a whole lot more
As for you and your capital letters I can see you are annoyed because I did not tell you what great points you brought up, it would not matter if Manny stopped Shane in 1 rd or if Manny goes the distance with Shane and Floyd had stopped Shane in 1 round during their fight at this point no ones opinions are really going to change the Manny supporters will stay with Manny and the Floyd Supporters will stay with Floyd.....As for Mosley it doesnt matter if Manny gets the KO or not...Shane has never been stopped in his career and he has only been down twice and even that might be wrong because I think Forrest is the only one to ever put him down (Not positive on it gotta think about it just going from what I can remember off the top of my head)...So even at his age it is not a factor if he is not stopped because Shane is not expected to be stopped by anyone....Why should Manny have to stop Shane to prove anything?.........
The only way to settle PBF/Pacquiao is for them to fight common opponents at this level mean nothing....And even if Manny has a lack performance against Shane it still proves little becauser I can name quite a few laxed performances by Floyd
