      Co-sign, Pac Man really showed his boxing skill last night. It was easy to disregard or underestimate his boxing ability in the past because he has fought fighters who are technicians of the game (JMM, Morales, Barrera). Compared to these Pac looks like a brawler. But Pac is an excellent boxer in his own right.

        He wasn't even remotely intimidated, that was the most impressive point in my view. But you are correct, the performance was Barrera-esque in terms of discipline.

          That's why I have more respect for Manny than any other fighter, especially Mayweather.

          Manny is a GOD. End of story.

              I agree, I really was shocked to see Pacman boxing circles around DLH like that, and he never got carried away and let his instincts take over. It really showed that he's a complete fighter.

                  Before the fight it showed Pac Man warming up on the pads with Roach, he ducked a left hand and fired back with a straight left, when I saw this I thought "Jeez, Pac will win this!"

                  Excellent head movement throughout the fight as well.
