Pac has great footwork. It's not just fast. He doesn't get caught off balance much anymore. He used to, but that's one of the things that has improved the most in his game.
Would have to agree with you about how Pac's footwork has gotten better but its only because he hasn't been pressured in his last few bouts. When he's been pressured he has a tendency to be off balance. It will be key for upcoming bout.
Doesn't matter, he did what he had to do. While yes, he might look more pedestrian against a guy with skills like Cotto, his footwork certainly won't be his downfall like someone said.
Ofcourse not, but to say he have great foot work is asinine. Good/Decent? yes, great? no!!!
Why people think that because somebody is bigger have more power? The bigger guy may have the strength advantage, but not the punching power just because he is bigger. Ex. Pacquiao-Hatton
Another one is because a guy has fast feet, they consider that, good foot work, when in fact its just that, fast feet, nothing more. The guy, could be fast on his feet, but he can always be out of position and off balance, and the slower feet guy, can do all of those things good. EX. Cotto-Pacquiao
Another one is because a guy have fast hands, the quickly consider him a boxer, when in fact he only have fast hands. A guy shuold be consider a boxer, when he uses is jab, movement and defense effectively, not just having fast hands. Ex. Judah-Clottey
Nother one is that people confused big name stars, with ATGsor Hofers. They think of a the big start or better known fighter to be better than the less known, because they are better known. But when you check their accomplishmenst and resume, its the exact opposite. EX. Hatton-Margarito
because people blindly assume things in here. There's so many Pacquiaos fans around where I live that know nothing about boxing. They only know about Pacquiao and his past few fights.
