What type of Boxer is Manny Pacquiao?

[GrandpaBernard]

I think people are underrating his ability to cut the ring off since he's had ****ty opponents since Cotto.

But I would not consider Pac ain't a good ring cutter at all.

If your opponents are ****ty, you should actually be able to catch them much more easily.

That wasn't Shane Mosley. That was Sugar Shot Oldsley.

If Pac fought only Mosley in his lifetime then you have a point mate.

But to say Pac had weak ring cutting skills is just overlooking his true skill.

Re watch the fights with Marquez and you will see what I mean.

Both of those fights were fought in the middle of the ring.

I think Pac has been a little weak in cutting the ring off in his fights with cotto and mosley because he wasn't prepared for having to do that, I don't think that was apart of the strategy because they thought those guys would not back peddle. I think if Pac fought a mover/slickster boxer type he would be prepared to do that, cutting the ring off effectively is not rocket science...epecially when you are a fast footed fighter like pac, it is only fighters with slow feet or poor footwork who struggle.

No need to coz I get what you mean.

All I'm saying is styles makes fights, but to conclude that a fighter lacks a type of skill because of 2 or 3 fights that didn't go their way out of 70+ total fights is moot.

That's why I wanna see Pac-Floyd coz it's been a while since Pac can be matched up with a real moving target coupled with impenetrable defense.

A "boxer" is someone hits to not get hit, Pacman gets hit easy



Pacman is a high output fighter who uses his punches to create openings, anyone who disagrees with what I just said should quit watching boxing and goto MMgAy

A good example of Pacquiao being a swarmer would be Barrera one.

Barrera could not get away and could not stop the onslaught.

[D4thincarnation]

When Pacquiao fought Oscar and Margarito, he was a pure boxers, letting his superior boxing ability show.

[D4thincarnation]

The Cotto fight and Marquez II Pacquiao was a boxer punher

[D4thincarnation]

And Pacquiao was a Slugger against Hatton.

Pacquiao can and has fought all styles
