    if he ran every fight and didn't commit to his punches?

    probabley, his footwork is sick, he barely got close to the ropes, the man turns real well, it's them angles

    he didn't really have this skill in the first morales fight, and vs marquez, like he said, there would be no fight if he doesn't run at marquez

      when you say he can only do that to people who can't box, do you mean he can only do it to people that aren't running away? umm, no sht if so

      otherwise, rios is a great pressure fighter, pacquiao's circling was just elite, punching on the move, on the move while being punched

          Yes this is true as well but its just way too risky the way he fought against marquez 4

            No he isn't, he's a slow plodder that has a great chin.

              That's where I stopped reading.

              Its funny whenever someone doesn't just stand there and a guy like Rios hit them its called "running".

                Exactly, he's like Margarito. When his opponent doesn't fold under pressure and or get tired he can't do shit other than take a beating.

                  he's young margarito-esque

                  most guys can't circle out like pacquiao, so most guys he can pin down

                  he's no duran that's for sure

                      i agree, but i actually find it a little weird to see manny pacquiao as a "boxer"
