I'm not sure anyone has really been that intimidated of little pac man. Maybe Clottey since he wouldnt even put up a fight but pac has never had that type of Tyson arua untill maybe Hatton. Even then Tyson was the baddest man on the planet, invincable heavyweight.

Pac believes in his power. I certainly won't question it. Mayweather definately doesn't want to taste it. It's down to he's power, though a combination of skill and the awkwad angles he can deliver them from played a part too

The punches you're not prepared for hurt the most...I say punches from awkward angles got most of the ko's.

Pacquiao's 4 knockdowns on Marquez...(pick one)

Pac's 2 knockdowns on Cotto...

Pac's 3rd and final KD of Hatton...

the 3 knockdowns of jmm in the first fight was a result of pure aggression, speed and raw power. the knockdown in the rematch was a result of a well-timed shot coupled with arm power.

the 2 knockdowns on cotto were the result of pin-point punching and awkward angles. of course pac's inherent speed and power also contributed.

the "hatton-flaton" was a result of a well set-upped, timed, wide but full-forced left-hook.

where's the carefully picked opponent choice?

[PIPO23]

Speed and power, if you watch opponents faces when it lands, they are wide eyed there's R.E.S.P.E.C.T for that straight left.He punches right through with speed. He hits hard and fast with his left and now they gotta watch the right.

in the land of the crackheads.

[agila2004a]

"same move everytime" . pac's opponents knows what the left is gonna do, yet it usually lands and does some damage.

[koko of phil]

The power and speed is already given for Pac. It's the unpredictability of his punches that sum it all.

[KO KIDD]

JMM speed mostly in the 1st fight manny came out explosive he never knew whatt hit him

if it was sheer power he would not have exited the round

2nd JMM it was mostly a balance thing

Cotto speed and explosiveness

Hatton accuracy to land perfect and timing while hatton was coming in

[KO KIDD]

I dont think manny is an incredible puncher but he is a guy who breaks you down and stops you late other than Hatton who he got perfectly

Cotto 12 rounds to stop
Clottey survived
Oscar 8 rounds never saw the canvas
JMM down several times made the bell
Diaz for all the punishment went 9
Larios went the distance
Hector Velzquez went 6

I'm not calling him featherfisted but he is a wear you down kind of fighter

Pac's first KD against Cotto was a result of a counter right that he landed over Cotto's double-jab just a second earlier.

Most of his KD shots are a question of timing and precision
