      Then what is the point of this thread to begin with?

        Goodness man. You dont get it. Speed can be neutralized. That doesnt mean the the fighter isnt FAST.

          I do agree that there are a couple of questions to be answered about how Pacquiao can deal with a fast, clever fighter like Mayweather. It's a fight that needs to happen.

None of those fighters were everin Barrera, Marquez, or Morales league.
            Beating a fast fighter doesn’t make you fast. MAB outboxed the prince due to his technical brilliance not his hand speed. His timing and coordination was perfect that night. Out-boxing an uncoordinated boxer like Hamed doesn't require handspeed

              He doesn’t get it.

                How can you not understand that the faster fighter doesn't always win? It's happened so many times throughout history it's not even funny.

                Going by your logic, Ali wasn't a fast HW because he lost to Leon Spinks.

                  You were mentioning these "african american" fighters werent good enough to fight Pacquiao.
                  Zahir Raheem whooped Morales badly, and Pacquiao turned down a fight with Zahir to fight.... Morales.

                    barerra beating those dudes doesnt have anything to do with his handspeed. dude stick to mma, boxing is techincal. you dont seem to get that. and what the hell does who shane has fought have to do with his handspeed???im not understanding anything ur saying, ur all over the place making faulty analogies.

                      lol yeah your right but I am just giving an example of the STYLES that he haven't fought against
