    Was that guy really trying to argue that Pac "moving" his head isn't head "movement"?

      Pacquiao's defense is solid.

        Pac's defense is underrated IMO. GOing by his past few fights we have seen him be highly elusive with lots of foot and head movement (DLH) inside slipping (Hatton) but I think Cotto and Clottey fights make people think his D is still bad. Cotto I think he wanted to prove he could take the power so he let himself get hit in the first couple rounds then worked off of countering. Against Clottey he couldn't use that movement because he needed Clottey to throw a punch so he could get in. In other words, he's baiting his opponents so he can counter all the while taking relatively few hits.

          Def. is a 4. His O is a 10(altho some shots are wide as f-ck).

            Its like saying some poster on this board sucks pac's ****. The poster doesn't really actually suck pac's ****. I saw the post and thought WTF? then I thought about it. I guess dude means something likeTyson and Frazier moved their head all the time whether a punch was coming or not, while Manny only moves it when a punch is coming. Other than that I don't know WTF dude is trying to say.

              Well it is the most popular subject on this board Dunn. I think my theory is pretty sound and until Floyd fans stop acting so dismissive and discouraging towards the biggest and richest fight of our generation then Im not gonna change my tune anytime in the near future.

                Thats just it. 2501 is not a floyd fan. SInce Mel Gibson has had a melt down maybe you can star in "Conspiracy Theory 2". Im out til later.

                    well it is not insane or ****** if u look at it besides just moving your head. In boxing, moving your head when no punches are being thrown is not head movement....we call that unneccessary movement.

                    Especially, when it is the same rhythm and moving in the same direction everytime. I can time that all day long.

                    So if pacquiao is moving head like that to avoid punches when there are no punches and yet gets hit alot when there is punches....then something isn't right

                    coming forward has nothing to do with it, look at mike tyson. He a come forward fighter but in his prime he didn't get hit much. Floyd has come forward against zab and mosley and got hit very little.

                    Moving your head in the same rhythmic motion isn't head movement in boxing. Moving your head while engaging is head movement.

                    Jmm moving his head low and to the right when manny throws those straight lefts was head movement!
