The video is Marquez centric because I'm setting up the basis from which we can draw comparisons on move forward. Marquez technique is the benchmark among Pac's latest opponents. There is a reason, Marquez has performed consistently in both fights against Manny, because of his superb boxing technique. Superb boxing technique adjusts to any style. Thus Marquez adjusted to the 2004 version of Manny, and the 2008 version of Manny who's right hand and timing were greatly improved by then.
As prove, during the opening bell of the first round, Lampley made his opening statement "Is it round 13 of the first fight, in which case Juan Manuel's technical skills could be the difference? Or is it a different fight because Manny Pacquaio has progressed so much as a boxer and has so developed his right hand in the 4 years since the first fight?", Lampley's opening statement.
Regarding Linear Attack Movement:
Pacquiao's movement was linear because Marquez was moving backwards. Pacquiao was not linear against Oscar, Cotto, Clottey, Margarito, Diaz, Hatton because they were stationary. Boxing Science. I can't rotate to the right or left if my opponent is backpedaling because i'll move into his lead hand or counter. Pacquiao didn't have this concern when fighting his stationary opponents after Marquez.
Pacquiao could not move/rotate to the right because he was not connecting. Freddie Roach taught Manny to rotate to the left and/or right when after he CONNECTS the right or left hand. Pause. Go and look at footage of Pacquiao and Roach training. Roach is showing him to rotate when he connects. think about what you're seeing. Roach is standing STILL. Manny connects, then he rotates. Now, let's view fight film. Manny throws lefts and right straights against Marquez. Marquez is moving backwards- avoiding contact, Manny recoils his jabs and continues to stalk him. Manny can't rotate because he can't CONNECT, because of Marquez' movement. Manny continues to be linear, because Marquez is going backward. Manny can't rotate right or left after he misses because he'll be walking INTO counters.
On the flip side, look at the Cotto highlight, he was rotating left and right because Cotto was sitting still and Manny was able to connect. Cotto had no idea where Manny was because Manny had rotated away after he connected. It's simple boxing science. I've boxed for years, and bro, you can't rotate after a miss because a counter is coming and you'll rotate right into a counter.
Also, notice how Marquez is place holding Manny. When manny draws close, Marquez extends his left hand to hold Manny in place, that frustrates the hell out of jab activity. it's an old school technique Ali utilized frequently to measure stabilize his opponents.
