    This dude is clearly forgetting how Manny destroyed Cotto when Shane lost against Cotto.

    What happened when Manny hit hatton on the chin with the single shot?

    And Manny's signature punch is the left hook.

    And Roach already stated that Manny would beat AM.
    Manny doesn't have one punch knockout power and he doesn't hit as hard as Shane...

    Not at welterweight he doesn't Shane is the hardest hitting badass at WW. He knocked out Mayorga and Vargas with one punch, was the first guy to KO Margarito ever. Manny has power, but it's accumulation of punches that gets him KO's.

    Diaz has been dropped much sooner by guys like Holt but Manny took 9 rounds to do it. Manny hits very hard but it's not one punch power and it's accumulations of lots of hard punches.

        That's a very bold prediction by Dwyer..but he sounds very amateurish in this video..

        Pacquiao does have one-shot KO power..that's been proven
        Margarito's chin is in question too..I'm sure he can't take the same amount of flush shots he did against Cotto with out getting stopped!..Mosley showed us that..Pacquiao is too fast and powerful for Margarito to ever be in this fight..I just don't see it..

          Try being a human punching bag for Pacquiao. Tell me he doesn't hit hard then.

            He picked Katsidis to beat Mitchell, so... hmm. I won't say it's out of this world, but I really don't see how Margarito could take Pacquiao's relentless onslaught for 12 rounds and emerge victorious.

            Margarito used to be a punching machine, but Pacquiao is now all that and more. Plus, he has serious power from wacky angles.

              Yeah, I picked Mosley over Margarito but usually Dwyer is right.

              He made some greats picks in the past like Pac over De La Hoya (I also picked Pac over Hoya) it seems like an easy pick in hindsight but it wasn't. Hopkins over Pavlik (again an easy pick in hindsight but a hard pick at the time), Adamek over Arreola in recent times.

                So did I, but I picked by decision I don't know what Dwyer did. Katsidis was ready to go the distance too, he said it in his interview. But when you have your opponent hurt you must take advantage of it. And Katsidis is one of the best at finishing an hurt opponent.

                    Directed at me? I didn't say Manny didn't hit hard, I said he didn't hit AS hard as Mosley.

                    Outside of the Hatton fight (where Hatton's chin wasn't as good as it used to be through poor lifestyle and hard fights) where has he displayed one punch KO power? Most of his recent KO's (against outside of the Hatton fight) have been in the late rounds. Against Cotto it was the 12th, Oscar the 8th/7th, Diaz 9th and they were all brutal beatings before the knockouts.

                    He obviously hits very hard, but its the speed, combinations and angles he offers than are the the reason for his power. He doesn't have the blunt straight power Mosley has which is why some of his more recent fights he has mananged to hurt fights with one punch or knock them out like the Floyd fight, Mayorga, Vargas 2.

                      Dwyer certainly had the head movement part down correctly. It was him who likened Kats to Tyson with the way he works a path into his opponent's face and starts pummelling them.
