it makes you think though, manny doesnt stop. if he carries on like this for 12, how would mayweather deal with that? . he would hate it to have to fight every minute. also clottey is frustrating not throwing enough.
RD 6 Clottey walking forward and doing nothing - oh he throws a punch, nice. Pac wants him to open up but nada, Clottey clammed up. Nice sneaky left by Clottey, oh here goes Pac again, those body rips are great. Pac wants a fight and is getting frustrated at Clottey doing nothing. Clottey with a jab and a right. Pac opens up on Clottey on the ropes, his poor ribcage. 60-54 Pac - Clottey just needs to THROW and his corner agrees!
This is what I fucking love about Manny. He's faced with an incredibly negative fighter, doing fuck all, just covering up looking for the odd counter shot, and still puts on a show.
Yep. Out of the 2 P4P guys, in the ring, one will do anything to get into a fight, the other will do anything to avoid one.
RD 7 Clottey actually throwing punches, incredible, and lands some. Pac loves that ribcage of Clottey's, nice right by Clottey, and another. Pac inviting Clottey to throw, Pac too fast and looks lethal when he opens up on that ribcage, nice. Clottey doing better this round really, few jabs and rights, I'm giving him a sympathy round. 69-64 Pac.
Precisely. If Floyd fought Cotto, he would be content to land just 1 or 2 more punches than Clottey for 12 rounds. Clottey would land one or 2 punches a round, Floyd would land 3 or 4.
one thing is for sure you have to match him for workrate and take chances yourself. im sorry but floyd is not the man to do that.
What color is Manny's sweat? Is it PED colored? Look closely, if he's taking, his sweat should look just like one of those gatorade commercials.
RD 8 Pac hitting gloves again, Clottey with the straight right to the body. Nice left by Pac, Pac opens up again, low blow by Clottey, we're back now. OOH Pac's body rips are awesome and Clottey still tentative. Head clash but it's OK. Nice 5 punch combo by Pac - head/body. Clottey starting to feel this now I think, Pac's round and order is restored. 79-73 Pac Clottey's corner saying they're losing every round.
Floyd doesn't want Pac. The man knows what he will face in the ring if they fought. Steroids or not, Pac is a beast
Although it goes without saying a lot of these shots are least partially blocked, Manny is still beating the fuck out of Clottey.
Floyd's style limits his opponent's workrate though... Everyone (except me) thought Pavlik would outwork Hopkins based upon the history that Kelly would throw close to 100 punches per round and Hopkins would throw about 20. But look what happened...
