    Pacquiao's power

    Pacquiao's power. You hear these guys talking about how devastating Pacquiao has been since he moved up and that because of this its an indication he must be on steroids, so lets take a look at his so called new found devastating KO power since moving up.

    David Diaz, broke down over the coarse of 9 rounds and hit with every!! punch in the book, it should come as no shock that he was going to end up being Ko'ed after the punishment he had taken.

    Oscar De La Hoya pounded on for 8 rounds and said after the fight that he was never hurt by Pacquaio

    Ricky Hatton, hurt by the big punching Juan Lazcano in a recent fight

    Miguel Cotto, hurt badly by the Corley who has (21KO's in 49 fights) hurt against Ricardo Torres, hurt against Judah, hurt against Margarito and imo was hurt in one of the later rounds against Mosley. Dont jump on back because im not saying Cotto is chinny im just saying that it not a huge!! shock that Pacquaio was able to hurt him. Most of the shots that hurt Cotto seem to be more because he did not see them more so than brute power.

      Credit to you DK,but sadly this inconvenient truth seems to have been buried under a gargantuan pile of steaming gob****.

        its careful matchmaking mixed with the fact he's to fast for the bigger guys..thats why floyd is a dangerous fight for him..another fighter who's moved up and used his speed and skills to win....manny makes the bigger guys fight dumb thinking trading with his is smart..but he's faster so he connects first and catches them with their chin in the air.......

            Pacquiao seems to wear his opponents down which leads to his KO victorys. Cotto, De la hoya are good examples of this, he won the match by TKO because his output is incredible and every punch he throws he puts everything into it which eventually takes it's toll on opponents. Hatton was just an accident waiting to happen but showed what damage Pacquiao can do if you get caught flush! People need to realize Pacquiao is not really a one punch KO artist though, his attribute is wearing opponents down as we've seen through the years. Pacquiao scores flash knockdowns but notice how most get back up? but later on the in the fight they get knocked down again and again...

              I make you right to a degree. Pacquiao's quick, sharp shooting punches are whats knocking these guys over, not brute power, that and the fact most of those guys have come foward aggressive styles.

                thats basically what i was trying to say and why i think he cant beat floyd..his biggest advantage will be taken away..the come foward aggresive aspect wont be there and the roles may be reversed where as manny will be the come foward aggresive type and may be the one to get frustated and careless

                  Yep, if Mayweather manages to dictate the pace of fight its all over. Manny fighting Floyd's fight is not gonna end well for him.
