Someone commented last month how Manny had been training as an orthodox and maybe he'd use it against Clottey who seems to like fighting Southpaws.
Here he is again training out of the orthodox stance.
I can't believe how fluent he looks, for someone that was soo one dimensional and very very left handed 5, 6 7 years ago. It shows the mark of the man's talent, he continues to impress me. I never thought he was capable of what he is now technically. I suppose that is also the steroids lol. People need to give him the benefit of the doubt until proven guilty, everyone must realise this man is a very serious threat to the mosley-mayweather winner.
its funny how one post from a PAC fan gets flomos constipated :D
:rofl::rofl:
hindi naman sya umubra. ang tanga nung poster na yun pare, wala palang alam sa boxing :lol1:
If Pacquiao fights Clottey as a switch-hitter or even orthodox fighter it will be majorly impressive (unless he bollockses it all up and gets his arse handed to him that is).
there's a difference b/t style and stance. style is how you fight. stance is more body positioning and placement
besides, i dont think manny's trying to change his entire style, just adding new elements to it.
pls continue to school mr boxing history then give me a go signal once he know boxing. thanks :lol1:
I'm far from a hater. It's funny how..if a person don't pick your favorite fighter then they are a hater. Y'all get all sensitive and start catching feelings like this fighter is somehow making your life better.
As far as Pacquaio showing how much he wants and can learn...whatever...This is a part of strategy. They know southpaws don't bother Clottey. Freddie Roach is changing things up because he knows he has to.
okay okay then why is it you act like they are doing something wrong.
He mastered one style so he is trying to learn another one huh? Yeah right!
you act like he cant learn another style. i dont care if you dont pick pac, i dont give a flying fcuk. sweeter the glory, but dont talk sh*t and act like he cant learn. obviously he's the most improved fighter, why is it he cant learn another style?

nothing really bothers clottey. doesnt matter if his opposition is southpaw or orthodox, his defense is tough to crack from both sides.
however, judah did give clottey some trouble. especially in the earlier rounds when he was actually throwing punches.

And thats what sets him apart from other boxers. He's still willing to learn. A lot of boxers get content with themselves after winning world titles and being successful.
Stance or style....please.. it doesn't matter
:rofl::rofl:
sir, i would kindly ask you to learn boxing. i wont talk to you again til then. thanks :lol1:
Stance or style....please.. it doesn't matter. If u changing your stance then u are obviously changing your style of fighting. Please comprehend first before responding. If u change your stance then u have a different pivot foot, different jab, different lead punch, and different defensive angles to protect so in essence you have changed your style.

hi hater sure hater. lol clottey is good, but no chance, sorry.
i wouldnt be surprise if he does fight ortho, it'd be a big improvement. shows how much he wants and can learn.

there is nothing wrong with learning to fight in a different stance. For all we know he's been training like this for years. I mean it was just one 3 min clip.
you failed to comprehend sir. i said STANCE not STYLE. do you know the difference? :Flush:

Thats good, it will only help Pacquiao, im sure these are not the only times he's done it, im sure he's done it plenty of times but never been reported until now.
i love how manny keeps adding more dimensions to his style, but this maybe taking it a bit too far. maybe theyre looking for ways to give clottey different looks to nullify his straight right, which manny has been vulnerable to in the past.
interesting development. imagine if manny masters the lead left hook to the body or head. dunno if he'd wanna stay in that stance cuz i dont think his back hand would be strong enough to counter with.
i agree but i dont think that roach and manny are taking it a bit too far. if anything, i think its a bit late cause hes learning to fight in a new stance and hes in the final moments of his career while other boxers like cotto and donaire has learned to fight southpaw or orthodox early in their career

what the one punch that pac is open to in a southpaw stance
the straight right obviously. that is one of floyds best and most used weapons in his arsenal. now if you switch to orthodox when you fight floyd though he can still land the punch but it could still limit the number of times he leaves himself open to it... i am no boxing expert or trainer but i always hear the straight right is an orthodox's best weapon against a southpaw so if you can take that away from your opponent(or atleast limit it in any amount) then you have not only improved your defense but also taken away a partof your opponents offense. in a fight i see won on points it can be crucial to who comes out to be the winner
to me this is just manny and roach getting some time in for the future floyd fight.
He mastered one style so he is trying to learn another one huh? Yeah right! Freddie Roach knows they have bitten off more than they can chew. He is getting plan A,B,C and D ready for Clottey. The thing is...Southpaws don't bother Clottey and neither does conventional fighters so it's not going to matter which way he fights Clottey is going to bust Pacquiao up. Freddie Roach is sending out all these smoke screens about knocking Clottey out and going to Clottey body and so on and so on but he watched the tapes and he knows he has his work cut out. I will continue to say this until the fight arrives. Team Pacquiao picked the wrong man this time.
