    by whom?
    Pac power is what gets overrated around here
    nobody ups his footwork as spectacular
    it's good but not something people dwell on about him

      You're wrong. I'm just looking at it critically. You're looking at it from a fantasy standpoint.

      You couldn't find fault with Pac if someone paid you to.

        I just find it hilarious that Manny has fooled everyone into giving him awards, accolades and praises he doesn't deserve, according to the experts on NSB.

        I mean these organizations have been around for decades and some of these experts have been around the sport for 40-50 plus years....yet Manny has tricked them and they don't know **** about boxing....smh
        You summed it up bro. Funny how a small minority in this forum know better than many of the credible boxing insiders. I just come through once in a while now. May not agree with some peoples opinions.. but it is what it is.

          the 1st knock down started with a straight life or a jab that manny threw while not lookin,manny's foot work did nothing to phase hatton and manny's foot work had nothing to do with hatton getin knocked out and it didn't matter how where or when manny moved ricky was there but that was the problem that ricky was always right there and in punchin range instead of using his usual mauling style he instead used his footspeed to stay in front of manny but wasn't doing much and was in mannys punching range to the point where manny was able to throw punches without lookin and still land

            Because even though Marquez is a great counter-puncher, don't know if I'd peg him as 'slick'. But if you want to see your boy's footwork vs a slow come-forward plodder, I can always post Mayweather-Castillo for you

Cotto was 146 for his fight right before Pac, he only had to lose 1 lb, sure that made a world of difference and Margarito was the benefactor of that CW, he was in the best shape of his career and had a huge in-ring weight advantage over Manny. He didn't have to cut 3 extra lbs to make welter like he normally did.

                  Since when was Clottey a come forward boxer? Dude is one of the best defensive counter-punchers in the business. Cotto is a boxer/puncher who has severely underrated overall skill- good technique and his footwork is pretty damn good himself. DLH is/was a pure boxer with a great jab and hook. The only real come-forward fighters were Hatton and Margarito and Pac fought well countering and going backwards. Manny has whacked plenty of pure boxers/slick fighters in his day:





                  And Manny has grown exponentially as an overall fighter since then ^

                  There are no pure boxers/slick fighters who aren't on vacation for him to fight (unless you count Marquez who is 2 divisions lower).
                  You basically got to what I said first.. Good post.

                    guys like him, Imdazed, caliloyd and others got a fixation with me, so that was more of a diss towards me than it was to you.
