    work rate = EPO

    Power = steroids, HGH

    Chin = A-side meth

    some people need to realise that Pac is a great fighter and stop making dumb excuses!

      Thats what hard work and training for years does to people....conditions them

      Calzaghe used to do up to 1000 a fight, and hes a super middleweight/light heavyweight

      P Will did 1000

      Pacs a beast, the greatest of this era, its not weird to see stats like that from him

        Calzage and P Williams do a lot of slap boxing, Pac seemed to be throwing mostly powershots

          It's ****ing crazy man. I don't know how you can keep throwing a thousand punches per fight. I don't know how he can bounce around in that 12th round like it's the first.

            I like Floyd. But seriously, it's like hitting the bag. If you go for 36 minutes you can hit it way more then 1300 times, watch Calzaghe. I don't believe this is an evidence of Pacquiao being on roids.

                Half of his punches weren't thrown with bad intentions. You see a lot not powerful punches just to keep Clottey occupied. While Margarito throws every punch with power, he just has no speed, but margaritas costs him more energy

                  Yeah I know, this looks like a steroid bait thread but when a fighter is not landing punches isn't it a bit unusual to maintain that work rate for 12 rounds? Sure there are some fighters known for high volume output, P. Will, Kassim Ouma, Margarito, etc...but those punches aren't what anyone would call powershots. Manny's punches seemed to maintain the same snap and zing all night, all humans must suffer fatigue at some point, I dont even think Manny was breathing hard.

                  Some say he looked tired after 6 but I disagree, he just looked frustrated cause he wasn't landing. The guy averaged 100+ punches per round, at some point shouldn't he had punched himself out?
                  It is so Floyd can still win fighter of the decade.

                    Calzaghe VS Lacy was more than slaps to me, plus he's a bigger guy and should get tired faster.

                    Williams possibly slappy, but not that much. He threw a lot of hard shots VS
                    Philips from memory.

                    Vitali threw like 100 VS Arreola. It's not impossible

                      exactly, manny mixed it up. went to the body and head, took some steam off his punches and put some on. he was just trying to get clottey to move his guard or try to exchange with him, but clottey didnt budge.

                      not only does margarito wing a lot of punches but he misses a lot as well.
