Style-wise, what former boxer does Manny Pacquiao remind you of? I'm just wondering b/c I feel that at this point, Pacquiao's style is for the most part very unique to himself. Can anyone name from other eras a style that appeared similar to pacquiao's. I'd be interested in checking out some of their fights.

The way Manny's been in his past few fights he reminds me of a prime Duran.

when you said it's simple you seem so confident that you are be able to do what pac does coz it simple,....do you expect anyone to believe that?.....what you said was arrogance at its finest....

I never implied that. You did.

Pac is pac, his own style modeled after himself with added improvements every fight.

Yes, the hate is so strong in this post. Reading and comprehension are obviously becoming a non-factor in schools.

Closest I can think of is Mike Tyson except a FAR superior boxer.

he does sort of have a likeness in his motions to Duran. I think he definitely has that hunger to hit people similar to that of Pryor. He also sort of has Tyson's explosiveness.. I'd hate for this thread to read like a give Manny head session but it's hard to describe his style without ultimately sounding that way.

I click refresh on the main page and see BrendanWoodside is last post on the thread.. Especially after last post i knew this would be the sort of reply I earned. It's true though. If there was a fighter who really mirrored Pac who fought a couple decades ago you'd consider looking up his fights.
