Why hasnt Pacquiao fought any slick fighters?

[HandSpeed303]

Thank you for making this post. This is the first time I have ever heard this. I will ponder your thoughtful, insightful post for many days and nights, if not months.

Man i just thought to myself "why am I even going to open this topic? It been done so many times over and over...This board is losing value by the day"....

Then I read your post! First post of the topic! Good work! Sick of this same old garbage!!!

LOL at you calling Morales slick.

You are right though a past prime Morales did outbox Pacquiao, just imagine what a top slick fighter would do to Manny. I think it was Murad Muhammad who came out and said I avoid these type of fighters for Manny because he will lose.

See this is what I don't get with posters like this. Pacquiao is the King today because he's different. You're assuming that Floyd's style of hitting and not get hit will materialize in this fight. It won't. Pac would eventually land that devastating straight left and and those hooks in weird angles. Slick has no meaning for a fighter like Pac. It may apply to Floyd's fast fights, but this time it won't.
