Move his head to avoid a punch, duck to avoid a punch or roll a punch?? Just been watching some old Manny fights and he is a great boxer but with little defense. If only he had learnt to do the above he would have been an even more elite fighter.
Pac picks off a lot of shots with his gloves. His head and upper body movement are good and an argument can be made that he has better feet than Floyd. Manny f u c k s you up at awkward angles which is what's going to be key for beating Rios.
Roach is a hype job I know more about boxing and how to teach boxing than Roach
Why u on nsb brah? I think roach is in the Philippines right now making doe.
pac has very good head movement but with his style it's impossible for him not to get hit.
in fact there's no fighter out there who can imitate pac's offensive intensity in the ring and at the same time avoid getting hit.
it goes with the territory really but some people are just too stupid to realize that.

He does know how to defend left hooks. That's why he's so successful against left hook specialists.

Pacquiao does have good head movement in spots, can duck and turn opponents, iwould say that was roach, because he didn't do that early in his career.
Bunch of Haters.
Teach a 34 year old man techniques which would change his already VERY EFFECTIVE fighting style?.. that enables him to whoop all he has faced since he started training with roach excluding Marquez ...
no. just no.
Floyd doesn't use much head movement.. but he is one the best defensive fighters of all time. Boxing is made up of many many elements.
Besides Marquez and Morales over a decade ago (two hall of famers by the way) who has been able to land much on Manny? Also, he's an offensive minded fighter, which means you have to sacrifice a little defense to implement such a gameplan. Watch the Tim Bradley fight, Manny showed he can box and demonstrate very sound defense if he decides too.
Did you ever see Roach as a fighter? You can't teach what you don't know.
lmao true that but pac is offense 24/7 except for the bradley fight which is why he got robbed, i have no idea why he would be more defensive against a pillow puncher like bradley. i guess just to show he could do it.

Manny is a better boxer than most give him credit for, with such a relentless attack it is very difficult to look like a slick boxer.
What Roach should do was to teach Manny how to defend uppercuts at close quarters, that's a mistake I've witnessed throughout Manny's whole career.
