This is going to be a hell of a fight . . . one man will be left standing . . . survival of the fittest.

Oh yeah, definate fight of the year material! Man how MUCH I look forward to that!!!

I like him just fine, its when some (and I did say SOME) of his fans totally and unnecessairly disrespect and put down his potential competition that I dont like him. Sad but true, but after reading insults about boxers that have been doing their thing and doing it well long before Manny was even heard of in the states...thats enough to turn a person against a certain fighter. Like I said, I like Manny..but some of the fans give the impression that none of these other great boxers even existed til he came along and challenged them..and if they so much as take time to consider if they think he's worthy of a shot with them then they're called "chicken" and **** and that does make alot of people mad. Some of us have been fans of these other boxers for a long time, and had never heard of Manny til the last year or two, and the way to win us over isnt to insult the ones that we love, and love to watch

thats what I'm saying...I could see him knocking Morales out much easier than I could see him outpointing him! As for the Barrera fight, Pac completely overwhelmed him...and slugged his little heart out! I hated watching it, but had to admire the little guys speed and power..but I didnt see alot of actual boxing going on. I saw Barrera get his ass handed to him, but when I think of the term "BOXING"..I think of the ole stick and move, counter punches, jabbing and good defense; and like I said, I saw Manny slugging more than any of that He was just so fast and furious that actual boxing never really played into it..it was more him swarming and beating the hell out of Barrera. Do you see what I mean (scary question considering that I'm asking you!!! ). When I think of technical boxers, I think of Marquez, Morales, Byrd, etc..when I think of slugging then of course thats Pac!

Well you aked and no I don't see what you mean . Pacquiao ain't a slick boxer like DLH but he did outboxed Barrera. He's just not as polished but the fundamentals are still there. You just have to watch a lil closer and more than one time. Watch it again and pay attention to Pac rather than Barrera and you'll see Pacquiao impose his stiff jab, blocking shots with his gloves, effective head movements, ducking, well timed punches, fast footwork and great rythm. He was as sound defensivley as he was offensively. He didn't allow Barrera to land any shot that might put him in trouble. His footwork always proppelled him out of the way. He banked body shots, gave awesome combos (8-10 at a time I'm not joking) basically he did everything he was suposed to. If that ain't boxing, I don't know what is. Again, esthetically, you'll never see him throw a left hook like a mexican but his arsenal is just as effective. I've seen teh fight close to ten times and I ain't just promoting Pac here, but trust me he outboxed Barrera. In any case, if he didn't outbox him and just tried to knock him out, it would have just been a Prince Naz case and he wouldn't have been THAT effective. Barrera is no pushover and if you try to bully him around, you'll end up getting as much as you give but as we all saw, that wasn't the case.
