You're all over the place guy. First it's Manny's and his 'non footwork' now it's whether he has the ability to cut off the ring against Mayweather. Considering that Floyd has excellent footwork it would be impressive for someone with even good footwork to completely cut off the ring against him. Will Manny be able to cut off the ring against Mayweather? He'll do better than most.
I don't agree totally with what duke said but manny doesn't know how to cut off the ring.

He had some success cutting off the ring against Bradley.

Bradley had twisted ankles in one of their fights and couldn't do it. Floyd is going to fly across that ring like he did against Canelo, on his magic carpet, moving like he wants to.

Manny isn't known for any of the things I mentioned as a fighter. Those aren't his staple skills.

U see manny jabbing slippin and have elite footwork like that? no way man no way. His best punch mayweather will see coming a mile away. He will be neutralized and then may will start making animated gifs out of manny for all of us to enjoy


If manny doesn't go out there blocking punches with his face using an unrelenting maidana approach he's done.

He's done anyway but that's the only way he can win.

Mayweather is going to show his true power and skill because he knows these cacs want nothing more then to give a split decision to manny to force a rematch

Manny's attacking footwork is great, he can get in and out of space very quickly even though his skills at cutting off the ring aren't great.

I've been watching his last fights very recently and I'm more convinced now than ever that Bradley beat him the first time. Did anybody notice the left hook that Bradley hit him with at the end of the 6th round with 14 seconds left? That sh*t had Manny hurt bad.

I think Floyd is going to beat him. I'm still looking forward to see Floyd deal with someone who closely matches him in speed especially on the attacking front.

Mayweather is gonna is so precise in his punches...Manny has weird movement when he is close enough to throw a punch. Like he has his hands up and his upper body moves from side to side. Very rarely he moves his head backwards. Floyd is gonna peep that early in the fight and have a counter to that.

To me, this fight hinges on two things. How quickly into the fight Floyd's right starts to land. Also, if Floyd can parry the straight left from Manny. I don't think Floyd is going to respect Manny's right, at least not initially. However, if Floyd catches that left early, then the fight is over from that point on, everything else will be a formality.

Thing is he won't chase Floyd because that's not his game. His game is allow the fight to come in some and he side steps to get his combos off.

I'm been watching their previous fights(new and old). I'm going to give a more In depth breakdown later.The more fights I watch from both the more I think the fight will be pleasing to the hardcore fans. Casuals Not so much. For a 100 I understand.

I can see this. I will say this though. Floyd better throw more then a 2 punch combo. especially when manny has his high Gaurd up.
