It's a completely ignorant argument. Color of skin should never be brought up, imo.

I agree with you 100% but im not the one who instigated it so instead of allowing it to continue I choose to defeat a bullshhiitt theory that holds no ***ing water whatsoever!

Manny is not a slow footed, uncoordinated, brawler with no hand speed and just comes at you in a straight line over and over again. Manny has more hand speed and athletic gifts then any AA fighter you can mention except for Floyd of course and even Floyd is probably only just as fast and just as athletically gifted as Pac so they are on even terms. So before you go buying into this whole Slick AA style ask yourself this. How is it supposed to work when the so called "brawler" they would be facing posseses greater hand speed, reflexes and footwork making it impossiable to avoid the punches? Isn't that the point of the slick AA style? Avoid avoid avoid! So what happens when you can't ***ing avoid whats coming at you because they are twice as fast as you? Sorry guys but there is not one Black fighter outside of Mayweather jr that is not at a disadvantage handspeed and footwork wise if they step into the ring with Pac! The slick style just doesn't work if you are the slower fighter.

I wish manny would just hurry up and knock both of those monkeys out. after that boxing can get back to normal. I don't know how he gets mayweatrher in that ring though. Maybe offer a year supply of purple kool aid and fried chicken?

You're missing the point, enitrely.

Pac has been sparring, fighting, preparing against 1 type of fighter his entire career for the most part. All his opponents square up and throw proper punches for the most part, there's nothing out of the ordinary about his opposition at all. He's mastered beating squared up opposition.

Up jabs, lead rights or hooks (even occasional uppers) and small things like that make a HUGE difference. He hasnt come across that style at all or has he fought a guy who blades himself instead of squaring up.

The logic is always brought up with Moralez/Raheem because Raheem is in no way shape or form anywhere near as a good as fighter as Morales is.. he won the fight though, because Morales said " I've never tested myself against a slick fighter, I'd like to now " his exact words. And well, we know the outcome.

It makes all the difference in the world. Raheem is no where near as good as Erik, but erik hadn't had the experience with one.. and he failed the test because of that.

The same thing applies for pac. Styles make all the difference in the world man. Don't look so deep into it with Race and junk.. its not an African American style, it's just AA's are usually the ones to employ such tactics.

But in all actuality there are a lot of fighters who are doing the things that guys are hinting at when they say AA fighters. I.E - Cintrons and his new rolling counters come to mind. He's not squaring up or catchin anything on the gloves anymore, he's coming back off of missed punches nowdays, although he isn't a slick fighter.

Calderon, Guzman, Mayweather, Martinez, etc etc.

Notice, the only person to actually COUNTER pacman was JMM and go figure, thats when Pacman had the most trouble. Otherwise, guys are trying to trade with pacman.. but trade i don't mean "punch with" i mean.. take turns; trade. Pac gets off a 7 punch combo and his opponent tries to respond with a 2 or 3 punch combo, or he waits too long and pac is getting off another combo again.

A few counter punches off missed punches goes a long way, so does a bladed stance.

Why the Slick AA Boxing style argument against Pac is total BS.
