    LOL Gamboa is more athletically gifted the Donaire could ever dream of being. Also Chad Dawson is BY FAR the most athletic boxer in the world today.

            Yes, he is a very athletic fighter and more importantly a very intelligent fighter. It is a joy to watch him fight because of how he studies his opponents. Boxing shouldn't just be about brute force type fighting or relying on physical attributes, it should be about using your brain.

              the cross counter that donaire pulled last nite is a thing of beauty. the only other two i think that were athletically gifter enuff to pull it off are floyd and roy. i kno roy loves cross counters. but floyd has always prefered straight counters to hooks, either that or he uses his check counter.

              but yea. the ts is right. that technique was very advanced. anybodys who's been in the gym recognizes real, and that **** was reallll.

                He can't even think for himself he relies on his advisers and Arum. I think Pacquiao means and wants to fight top opponents but Arum lies to him by telling he is fighting p4p fighters because Pacquiao can't read the p4p list.
                Pacquiao did not even know he is fighting Shane Mosley on Showtime. He said he was in the dark when negotiation were made. He is gifted physically not mentally.
                By the way, no *****.
                You must not watch much boxing then... or are legally (or actually) blind.

                Here you go champ:



                And Manny is more athletically gifted than Donaire, even though Nonito is a beast. But Pac has carried his speed, power, agility, etc through how many weight divisions now? Nonito doesn't have his foot or hand speed, not even close.

                  Agree with Gamboa, Dawson eh... not so much. But Yuriokis has some elite athleticism.

                    I don't see rjj or wifebeater ever employing that counter. they'd rather not risk getting hit at all.
