Originally posted by Johnwoo8686 View PostI'm about to blow the TS' world up by saying this... Pacquiao's offense isn't even that great! Sugar Ray Leonard had great offense, Thomas Hearns had great offense, Duran had great offense. Pacquiao, although he has good offensive tools his offense is not great. He often leads with his head when throwing his straight left leaving himself open to a counter left hook. His right hand is overrated as you could tell by the Marquez fight because Marquez was never dazed by Pacquiao's right hook.
Of course Marquez had more bruising in their fight, Pacquiao threw almost al of his punches exclusively to Marquez's face. While Marquez split his offense by going to both Pacquiao's face and body. Well rounded fighters must have great defense because great offense alone can only take you so far. By your logic TS Willie Pep would be one of the most overrated fighters in history. Did you know he won a round by not throwing a single punch?
lol @ this garbage blowing anything but goat dicks.
So he doesn't have great offense compared to a handful of ATG's? Uh huh...... do you want to tell me more einstein?
P4P Pacquiao's offense is among the greatest in history. He has certain things other ATG's don't have either. Duran or Julio Cesar Chavez does not have his mobility.
You keep bringing up the Marquez fight as if it's something.
Guess what Ali had Norton. He arguably beat Norton 3 times. Does that mean historically Norton is on Ali's level?
What about Jake Lamotta? Skill wise, is he on Ray Robinson's level just because they had a bunch of close fights?
Marquez still never beat Pacquiao and his offense didn't win him any fights. Pacquiao walked him down. Simple as that.
Offense wins fights.
LOL @ bringing up Willie Pep winning a round without throwing a single punch as any kind of credible evidence. If boxing evolved to have all 12 rounds like that, would anybody even watch?
Don't bring exceptions to the rule son. You're out of your league.

Look at his KO ratio. That is a testiment to his commitment to coast to decisions and his lack of power. Period.

Unless you're knocking people out, you don't have offense... is that correct?
Yeah... #'s don't lie.
Neither does ignorance.

When you drop a machine gun power or nuclear bomb, you have more offense than revolver.
