    His style hasnt changed much and it shows when he has to deal with movement.if you stand in front of him with no movement like a punching bag then he will beat you like a punching bag,if you move then he is reduced to his same 1-2 type style we have seen for years

      Well, you can't expect Pacquiao to be the same forever. There comes a time when fighters start getting old and can't fight the way they used to. I'm not how sure how old he is now, I think 34. That's not considered physical prime anymore. I'd say his prime was 29-30 years old, maybe 31. The style he has does not do well with an older fighter.

          Pacroid has always been a C- type fighter going up against drained opponents. And yes he was & still is on the juice. Everyone now is taking the test to prove they are clean except his cherry picking ass. All pacroid supporters should hang themselves for being so ******. Hey look, dude got offered $40 mil & still took off running away from the Floyd fight. To me that's a sign of a chicken/yellow belly corward on PED's.

              *gets beat by an old lighweight JMM*

              "JMM has Pacquiaos number! It's just his style!"

              *gets beat by Bradley*

              "Pacquioa isn't prime! If he was in his prime he would've stopped him!"

              Nah its double standard for Floyd. If Pac dont stop and ko people floyd fanatics have a go at Pac for not stopping his opponent, even if he makes them look like elephant men, or makes them run for dear life.

              Floyd just outpoints people and never kos anyone but its ok.?

His speed wasn't as dynamic, his power doesn't seem to have all that much snap/force, and even his stamina seems somewhat questionable considering that he let the last few rounds slip away, on my card anyway...
                Bradley was highly successful at turning it into a sparring match. All an illusion.

                    Pacquiao looked impressive against guys who stood in front of him and tried to trade punches. Ricky Hatton, Miguel Cotto, Clottey who covered up, Margarito. Once those guys were all beat, there weren't many other fighters to fight. Bob Arum did not want to make the Mayweather Vs Pacquiao fight, so he made Marquez Vs Pacquiao III. Marquez being a brilliant counter puncher/boxer, who is always timing his opponents gave Pacquiao fits. Mosley decided to not to stand in front of him and use the ring, Pacquiao looked like crap. Bradley decided to box, Pacquiao looked like crap.

                    Pacquiao is not a fighter who does well against pure boxers.

                      Looks like crap against pure boxers? But he still beat Bradley and Bradley is the one who looked crap. So pac does do well against pure boxers, he may not look great (but who does against fighters who just backpeddle) doing it, but he still did well.
