Pacquiao's CLOSE friend: "Manny will fight Sergio Martinez"

[| THE KING |]

Yea, in graduate school now to be one actually.

And for your second question, I don't like Manny's chances there at all.

I was joking man.. well good luck in grad school. Some think it's a pain, but, I wish I could go back.

Yea it would be a difficult fight for Manny, but, if he pulls it off... I would not be surprised.

martinez is being overated. he is decent fighter but i wouldnt put him up their with floyd,donaire or gamboa talent wise. imagine if pac was a junior middle or middle weight fighting the likes of pavlik, williams and dzizurinik. those guys would get dismantled. i would love for this fight to take plkace because i see martinez getting hit and outsped all night.

i actually do box, and ill say it again, manny's boxing technique is a mess. it works for manny. he throws punches off of his back foot with one foot in the air and is often outta position. he gets away with it because of his speed, but if hes fighting someone like martinez or even mayweather, those mistakes will cost him. now compare him to a guy like floyd(not that hes a better boxer). floyd has the best technique to his punches outta anyone fighting, he throws them textbook and is rarely outta place. if u dont understand punching technique u shouldnt comment. dont be so sensitive, manny has other things that make up for it.

if your reaching foward you have to lift your feet you dumb *****, stfu, yu can't box for sht, just some loser

a befuddled Martinez loses on points

I'm going to bump this thread when that ***** goes down. You just called how the fight may go.

sloppy?



I'm sure these guys disagree..

Pacquiao is able to throw power punches off angles that most would only throw soft touches from, now what I'm saying? He's able to do that, isn't that what makes him unique?

If I went into a Boxing GYM and started throwing punches the way Pacquiao does, I'm certain I'd get called out for it, trainers wouldn't like it.

Sergio looks like a million bucks when he fights aggressive and or textbook fighters...guys like pavlik, williams, dzindiruk...it would be interesting to see how he fares against someone with handspeed and doesn't apply any 'textbook' technique in his style

I agree. Someone that doesn't have Pacquiao's power/speed/movement will get hurt.

also if anyone has sloppy punching technique it's martinez, could'nt throw a straight punch to save his life

ummm i never said it was ineffective. i give up...lol...i cant explain something to ppl when its going rite over their heads. in an effort to defend ur favorite fighter, u ignore the substance and go in attack mode. the point is martinez has the better punching technique imo. i gave speed and combination punching to manny but those things dont necessarily mean he has the better technique.
