Which one do you prefer?
The Nikes were OK but I'm really digging these new ones. Pacquiao has shown how fast he's able to bounce back with top of the line sponsors. I guess that's what happens when you don't beat up women. :lol1:

Take a look at Manny Pacquiao's new and old training shoes. Sports brand Mizuno, however, is not Pacquaio's new sponsor. He ordered a pair of boxing shoes to use during training. (Photo: mav_gonzales/GMA News) by gmanews
So does this mean that people always thought pac's shoes were ****ty?
NO! They picking the other shoe out of SPITE toward Nike for dropping their hero
The Nike products clearly looks 100x BETTER!
I actually like the design of the Nike ones, but the Mizuno are good too. I'd go with a different color for the Nikes, those things look loud as heck, also lose the strap at the bottom

I can speak for myself, yes :D. don't like their design / look. they look like power rangers shoes or the design of Sandals

Generally speaking Mizuno are decent quality but those boots look like template pairs for demo purposes / visualization. They look cheaply made. The sole is a bit of a tell-tale sign for me, it's somewhat rough cut, uneven contour, poor adhesion to material. Looks reminiscent of our basic templates, produced fairly quickly in various colours and material combinations for visualization purposes. I'm pretty sure they aren't the finished product but if they are then I'm definitely unimpressed.
You can see the actual boots on guys like Marquez (I believe Quigg also wears them now).
I've had a pair of Mizuno's for years, they are the best I've owned as far as quality goes. I quite like the Adidas AdiPower also, but I find the HyperKO Nike's to be shaped a little weird.
I really wish Under Armour would release those Canelo boots, for some reason they keep them from public sale.
Surprisingly, the Mizuno boots are the best made you will find. Mizuno use the highest quality materials and make a much smaller profit per pair because of that. Extremely durable and comfortable.
Nike use cheap materials to maximize profits, as they do with everything.
