    The other point I wanted to make is that, in almost every guy gets hit by stuff they don't see in almost every fight.

    But they don't get knocked down from it a lot of the times.

    Tons of speedy guys with not a ton of pop out there.

      All I'm saying is Pacquiao's punches are easier to see when you have a good distance on him, all I'm saying.

        WTF is "would of"?? what does it mean...

        Sugar Ray will beat who?...

        I was comparing Pryor to Pacman in there.not trying to to compare "against".

            How many brutal KOs has Pac had since the Barrera fight? Pretty much all of them are accumulation KOs. He obviously has really good power but nothing earth-shattering.

              I've always thought Manny was just a heavy handed fighter with blinding speed. Well he is. He won't KO you with just 1 punch(minus Hatton and his early days), but when your getting hit all over the place by a heavy handed, blindling speed, and nonstop thrower. Your gonna get worn the *** out, not to mention your face isnt' gonna look the same. But yeah I don't feel he's got a sudden steroid boost of power. He just gets to eat whatever to maintain the weight and they say a fighter that fights at his natural weight, is a happy fighter.

                    Lets face it Pac has very good power. But of course it is an accumulation of punches. YOu only need to look at the state of the faces of the people he has fought to see. Hatton wasnt marked too much because he was put to sleep pretty fast.

                    But if you want evidence of someone without much power you only need to look at PBFs victims.

                    But i dont want Pac to underestimate PBFs power though having said that.
