I asked a prospect who had sparred both Pacquiao and Margarito who hit harder....

    But that is amazing though. I think the velocity behind Manny's shots are just tremendous.

    Force = Mass X Acceleration

      Even though I haven't dropped any articles recently, I want to assure everybody that I have been writing, I'm actually sitting on three articles right now that I have to submit but haven't since the fights I'm describing are a little ways off.

      On Monday, I'm dropping a Luis DeCubas Jr article/interview where Joel Casamayor, the Velasquez twins and Odlanier Solis are discussed.

      I am also sitting on an article about super middleweight prospect Jason Escalera from NJ which is pretty interesting. I also have an article completed on Nate Campbell's fight with Ali Funeka.

      In addition to the article on the El Harrak prospect, I am also conducting an interview with Raul "Cobrita" Martinez, who will be fighting Nonito Donaire next. I'm also setting up interviews with Joshua Clottey and Melderick Taylor, should be loads of fun.

        Funnily enough I just read an interview with Byron Mitchell, a two time world champ and one of the guys who fought Calzaghe in his prime, and he said that Calzaghe has good, respectable power. He went on to bag him and say he didn't think he was good and didn't respect him, but, he has respectable power. That's pretty good coming from a guy like Mitchell.

        Anyway, Pac definitely hits hard, don't about hitting herder than cruiserweights, but he obviously hits very hard. Lets hope Hatton prepares properly.

              I'll be looking foward to them homie. Especially the Campbell article! He seems like he's really going to give Funeka a going over.

                He really is a terror to fight. He reminds me of Aaron Pryor, in that they are both inner city ****** guys who just really like to fight. He says he's going to do some "very violent things" to Funeka, I'll be there to see if he's telling the truth.

                  Yeah greezy you may be right.....they do have descent handspeed but even faster foot speed. But don't you think with above average handspeed their power would be better than what it is?

                      It's also about punching technique, if you don't turn your punches over but just shoot them out fast, you don't generate enough power to KO people.
