Which fighter's style is better suited for street//bar fighting? Pac or PBF?

[hectari]

Pacquiao actually has a lot of Bar room pool hall brawl experience so I would say Pacquiao in his wild days.

Floyd style is for sport, for a controlled environment with rules.

Ill take a Pacquiao, Tyson style or a Mayorga style in a bar room fight.

[Zaroku]

Maidana would do real well!

[GOT BEEF?]

well, pacquiao actually has power.

Floyd because he takes less punches.

In real fights people don't lean on you and throw wild hooks while you jut your head around making them miss. They throw 1 or 2 and if thy miss they jump on you.

Floyd's purely sport style of boxing would be a less effective form of street self defense than just hitting someone with your purse and running away.

[al-Xander]

Pacquiao is an all-around fighter, offense, defense. There's no time constraints in street fighting. Only reason why he gets careless is because he always feels obligated to entertain the audience within 3 minutes of every round. He got a sprained ankle in the Mosley fight, for example, and they got booed. He kept motioning Mosley to press the action because he can't move, but every time Mosley does he gets countered. And Pac had to do the chasing despite a sore feet.

Also in real fights, untrained fighters who get caught on the button by a professional counter punch they don't see while running in chin first and swinging wildly will generally all get put to sleep.

Kinda like this:

Floyd would be slipping punches all night, even drunk.

Bumped, for new users.

What if one guy fought like PAC and the other like Mayweather?

Would everyone just turn around and keep drinking instead of even watching?

I don't no how many ppl have actually been in a bar fight,ive had my fare share,and Floyds style does not work well and is actually dangerous because you don't run around in a bar or try and counter punch because bar fights are won by who lands first USUALLY and that's usually the aggressive guy who has more physical type one punch power.

Close distance punching is what works best not outside point winning. Bar fights last an average of 30 seconds Usually,so I don't know why floyds style is better,its not. Yes it looks slick but that nonsense is not necessary when you can just step into someone and end it quicker.


To add to the more direct punching style of going forward is also better suited to hit while clinching ,which almost always happens as well.Yes you can step back and connect on someone but you don't have much time to plan it out with no rounds and coach.
