      I think both of those fighters were much more varied and versatile.

      Pacquiao is wreckless. The only guy I can compare him to is Edwin Valero

          When he was in the lighter weights he bobbed up n down alot like tyson coming in. Nowadays I think his style is all his own, he almost looks like a boxing version of bruce lee, the way he darts in and out.

            I could see Shane Mosley but not Tyson. One of the things people don't give Tyson enough credit for was his boxing. He was a very sound boxer with excellent head movement but it was very calculating and controlled.

            Pacquiao is very erratic, very jerky in his style.

            I honestly can't compare him to anyone to be honest. He is kind of like a boxing version of Bruce Lee, very explosive, very erratic and awkward in the angles he takes.

            He's a unique fighter really.

                    I can agree with that up to a point, they do bob and weave in a similiar way
