    What argument? I was discussing Turning opponents and angles, but he's bringing up how manny gets off balance when throwing punches which i never contested

      Ali also threw punches that wasn't technically correct thing to do. But you work on what you're good at.
      What makes Pac, Pac is his awkward off balance not so technically correct style.

        You have serious reading comprehension problems. Responding to me about something im not even arguing is idiotic.

        So get off my ****
        No. You told him to STFU and "learn boxing", then gave manny all this praise.

        But in truth, the OP is correct. No boxing trainer will encourage you to throw punches like Manny, and for the reasons I said above.

        My bad for trippin with the insults, but you came off harsh to the TS.

          Pac has a very unorthodox style that violates many techniques taught in gyms and so did Naseem Hamed.

          Sometimes you will have boxer's that cannot fight like everyone else ... these are the naturally gifted ones. Correct or incorrect technique is subjective in boxing and the above mentioned are perfect examples.

          Often emulated, but never duplicated.

            Pacquiao drops his right hand when he throws his left straight and he lifts his left foot off the ground. That's why I think if he and Floyd ever fight, Floyd's lead left is going to knock Pacquiao down if it's timed right.

              Exactly. most people wouldn't be able to fight their best using Pacquiao's style. But it works for him. *****s can dismiss his style all they want but it doesn't change the fact that he is a great boxer.

                Different fighters use many tools that works for them....the tools that Pacquiao uses has made him the best fighter in the world and a millionaire so if that works for him then be it. Just like Mayweather style works for him...I've seen others trying to mimic him but can't get the same results...so you teach a boxer the basics but they develop a style from what best works for them
