Once those physical gifts of his start to diminish, he's going to get owned. Guaranteed.

        It's frustrating when I read that he's more skilled than Zab, Floyd, even Devon Alexander, which he's not. Like the title says, Manny Pacquiao is a freak of nature and not much else.
        thats spot on man

        pacquiao really does have little head movement and is wide open for straight shots in between his high guard, thats why cotto had succes in the early rounds.

        his unreal speed and generated power let him get away with getting hit cuz he can hit u back 6 or 7 times before u can counter him again

        people who dont see this should watch another sport

        btw why r u supporting sneijder? not really impressed with the guy even though he scored twice vs brazil, elija does a much better job and has proven it

          They are dopes and most of whom aside from Mak and a few others have seen no fighters other than Pac and his opponents before so they having nothing to compare him to other than the guys Pac beat up already.

                Rigo easily, but most ppl on this site probably have never seen him fight before so why bother Burner.

                    Yes Pacquiao might not be as technically skilled as Judah.

                    But Pacquiaos the better fighter plain and simple.
