:what:

It's okay for nikkas to not like/appreciate mma breh same goes for boxing.
Why even bring up mma in this thread about boxing though? What was the point of the op doing that?
You don't have to like boxing or mma but you should appreciate both sports for what they are. They aren't even competing really so i have no idea why people try to force this.
2015 will be great for boxing but it doesn't mean ":ufdup:mma".

Floyd needs to toss that jab in the bushes, especially that stab jab to the body.

Manny loves to get nikkas to trade jabs with him. I'm with you on him not having anything for Floyd's right and everything else you said, that's pretty much how I see things going as well.

props to @Yuzo for the gifs

Bradley was able cut Pac's workrate down significantly by being active with the jab in both fights...threw and landed more jabs than any other Pac opponent, which in large part led to him having the most success against Pac than any other Pac opponent not name Marquez or Morales (or Singsurat or Torrecampo :troll:)

If my memory serves me correct...Morales kept Pac honest with the jab as well...

Now Floyd has a better, crisper and more accurate jab than Bradley, the longer reach, faster hands and is better measuring & maintaining distance...if Bradley can have some success at using his jab to stunt Pac's offense at times and cut down Pac's workrate...i don't see why the superior jabber in Floyd wouldn't be able to supercede everything that Bradley did with his jab... and it's the jab that's going to create openings for the right hand as well...

Also...those gifs don't show Pac effectively countering the jab...if anything they show that Floyd might not want to be as liberal with throwing those lead left hooks...or try to lure Pac into check left hooks

If we get Stevenson/Kovalev (Well..........that's provided Kovalev beats Pascal) :comeon:
The returns of Ward and Mikey Garcia:usure:

And Juan Manuel Marquez winning a title at 147 (Brook or Thurman/Guerrero winner):francis:............ simply because if he wins a belt at another weight class he'd be the first Mexican boxer to win a belt in 5 different weight classes (Feather, Super Feather, Light, Super Light.....)

Bradley and Morales both had some success with their jabs until Manny took it away from them, hell even Algieri was having success with his early. After Bradley got his taken away he resorted to throwing bolos. Those were Yuzo's gifs I used but I'll make some gifs tomorrow to better show my point. Manny throws his struggle jab to make the opponent throw a counter jab(or hook as in these gifs) then he sneaks in his left in. Low key I think this is going to be a dope chess match with dudes setting up traps for each other.

May-Pac is probably gonna be a relatively dull fight... it's the idea of two legends facing off with eachother in the ring and the event as a whole that everybody is looking forward to moreso than the actual entertainment value of the fight.

Wilder KO2 Klitschko is gonna be the show stealer in 2015 :win:

Actually think it's going to be the opposite :ehh:

Think Floyd's gonna get tagged up early...and is going to have issues timing Pac's speed & rhythm which is gonna create a few interesting moments early on and have Floyd stans like...

6sn-1-gif.665


Then around the mid-rd's he's going to start to get a bead on Pac's rhythm...see that Pac is susceptible to being stopped in his tracks when you consistently stick a jab in his face...and turn it into a hug/jab fest in the mid-to-late rds with some straight rights thrown in every now and then for good measure...and cruise in the 2nd half of the fight.

Bradley was able cut Pac's workrate down significantly by being active with the jab in both fights...threw and landed more jabs than any other Pac opponent, which in large part led to him having the most success against Pac than any other Pac opponent not name Marquez or Morales (or Singsurat or Torrecampo :troll:)
