Justin Fortune, the strength and conditioning coach for WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao, is expecting the Filipino star to land some very telling blows on WBC/WBA champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. on May 2nd at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

Fortune, a former fighter, studied Mayweather's last two fights and felt the undefeated pound-for-pound king had slowed down and took a lot more punches than in previous ring appearances.

If Maidana, who is much slower than Pacquiao, was able to get off with punches, then Fortune feels Pacquiao is going to land far more.

"In his last two fights Floyd has slowed down. All you have to do is slow down a fraction [to be vulnerable] with someone like Pacquiao. Against Maidana he looked ordinary. I think both fights were ordinary. He definitely won, but if someone like Maidana is laying gloves on you then someone like Pacquiao is going to put a hell of a lot more leather down," Fortune told BoxingScene.com.
