Thought this was gonna be a legit topic till I saw people gushing at Pacquiao.
Answer is simple. You'll get fcked up fighting like that.
Pacquiao fights just like Roach when he was a boxer. Nothing bad about it but it takes bravery, and endurance really. Roach was no where near Pacquiao's speed but he fought just like it so not a factor.
Not many boxers have that heart or reckless nature. That "if I didn't box id be dead anyways." Type of recklessness/heart. That's just fact.
That's why people don't imitate Pacquiao's style.

Why would anyone imitate it? It's a horrible style for 99% of the population. No diiferent than Roy's style or Sweet Peas style. It's fundamentally unsound.diiferent

Btw there isn't anyone out there that can emulate Floyd's style either. Much too unique and whole he does a lot of the fundamentals, there are things he does that are totally unorthodox I.e. the pull counter.

He's a savage and in his prime was unbeatable. And there's not enough of him in boxing so I wish more people dared to be him

Amir Khan comes closest to Pacquiao IMO.
Every fighter can be beat though, everyone has bad style matchups.
