      Possibly. He could also be carrying it up well like Tommy Hearns, unless your saying Tommy was a natural Cruiser.

        I don't think Hearns was a natural Cruiser but I also don't think he was a natural WW either. He probably was a natural MW. Who carried his power well. And, for Pac lets not forget also that speed=power. And, the punches you do not see coming is the one who hurts you the most. And, Pac does punch from weird different angles.

          Roach, Lampley, Steward and Merchant all said Pac hits harder and got faster.

          Yet leave it to nobody b-scene posters to tell you that pac didnt get faster or stronger or hit harder.

            Oh, the punching from weird angles is amplified with the harder punch now. I mean when you're dropping a natural good MW (that was fighting at 154) prospect, I think it's safe to say you're getting some more 'ummph' in there.

              Is the weird angles with the speed cuz you do not see those coming. Again the punches that you do not see are the ones that hurt you the most.

                And, could that be cuz he is at a more natural weight?

                  I said it's amplified with the harder punch. Hitting harder plus blinding speed = even worse on the other guy.

                    Pacquiao's best weight class = 140 (Jr Welterweight).

                      I wouldn't be surprised if he could compete at 154.
