Maybe when people say SMM is a great boxer they arent refering to his style. But that he is a boxer, and they think he is great.
Ive never heard people say Pac is a slugger. But yea, if they do, they are wrong.
Below 130 id describe him as a very aggressive wasp with a killer sting.Comment

Aside from the hardcore boxing fan, many in the general public seem to share two misconceptions:
Myth: Shane is a great boxer.
Fact: Shane is a HOF fighter. Shane IS NOT a great boxer, he IS however a great slugger. I'll go further and say I actually had Mayorga ahead of Shane on points after the 10th. There is no excuse for that.
Myth: Pacquiao is a slugger!
Fact: Pacquiao is NOT a slugger. Pacquiao is a VOLUME PUNCHER and a southpaw who possesses one punch KO power in his left. I don't think he is a serious threat to KO somebody with his right hand.
Maybe I'm wrong, but please tell me if I am. Thanks!

He developed those skills just over the past few years. Roach has done a fantastic job with him, just watch the Cotto or Clottey fight and then watch him vs MAB1.....its a tremendous difference in his technique and accuracy, he looks so much more controlled now.Comment

I think the Shane Mosley Myth came from the lower weight and his mediocre competition at the lower weight (Not his fault), The way he destroy people made that myth grow stronger, When he moved up in weight everything change, Mosley is not a thinker in the ring and that for me is a big minus for him.Comment
