Very good question and thread. All of us are only speculating but obviously there is no denying his unique and aggressive style are what make him so special yet he does have a lot of flaws in his footwork which were exposed by JMM in all 3 of their fights. I think what truly makes Pacquiao special though is his hand speed, awkward style, and most importantly something that can not be taught his hunger to win stemming from the hardships he went through to get to where he is today. Something extremely important missing is how many different types of styles and trainers there are in USA Boxing where as many other countries all fighters kind of have one similar style USA Boxing has a little bit of everything.

wouldnt square up so much, wouldnt reach or leap in with his punches, wouldnt get off balance as often, would be better at cutting the ring off etc.

pacquiao is a true athlete, and like most true athletes he is very maleable whilst he stills has his athleticism, problem is a can't imagine pacquiao fighting any other way, so who knows
