    Does Manny Pacquiao have the best PHYSICAL genetics of any ATG ever?

    Manny is the only ATG who is elite in all 6 of the following:
    1. Great speed (hand and feet)
    2. Great reflexes
    3. Great stamina
    4. Great power (carried through 8 weight classes)
    5. Great chin (stopped only once in last 20 years vs bigger men)
    6. Physical longevity (still strong and fast in his 40s)

    Other ATGs:
    Roy Jones lacked a great chin, Mayweather/Ali/Whitaker/Pep lacked power, Cotto lacked stamina, Duran/SRL/SRR lacked Pac's physical longevity (all no longer elite after 35), Chavez Sr lacked reflexes/speed, Hearns lacked a great chin, Tyson lacked stamina, Louis/Foreman lacked speed, Klitschko/Lewis lacked chin, Ward lacked power, Golovkin lacked handspeed/reflexes, Canelo lacks footspeed/stamina, etc....

    "Lack" doesn't mean they suck, just not elite like Manny.

    Manny is the only who is elite in all 6 categories. His one weakness is his defense but that's not a physical attribute.

    Physically, Manny Pacquiao has the best genetics of all time. The man was built for boxing.

    That's why he is 8 division champ.

    Whitaker didn't lack power at all.

      simply because pac is a beast. which divas of today didn't possess. his physical attributes comes from his determination, motivation, discipline and talent.

        Have you seen Tyson Fury?

        Pacquiao was a great package though speed paired with power and high workrrate.

        I see why Floyd ducked him for 7 years.

          he has 8" wrists which are avg size of a heavyweight and huge calf muscles

          so he has some strong genetic advantages. He has a good chin too if you think about it outside of the JMM KO he didnt see. But just taking shots at 147 from margo and cotto is still impressive.

            If physical genetics include height for the purpose of this question than nah. He's a bad mfer & a legend of boxing doe so its not like he was dealt a bad hand physically.

                  The guy who got dropped by feather-fisted Cruiserweight?

                    Interesting breakdown, but Joe Louis had fantastic hand speed. Maybe it gets overlooked because he wasn't very flashy. He threw thunderbolts with both hands --- speed, power, and precision.
