    He did counter Chico what are you talking about? With that said he did beat him to the punch as well like you said. Pac is a mid range fighter and at 130 he was not complete. He was still somewhat raw he relied on his athletic ability more than his boxing brain to get him by.

    EM was done in that rematch he was basically shot he had no legs which was the one of the main reasons why he couldn't deal with Pac anymore. Cotto was running from Pac just trying to finish the fight. He should have been allowed to finish it was a quick stoppage IMO. With that said Pac is a mid range fighter he has never shown the ability to fight on the inside and looks very uncomfortable when he's forced to fight there.

    PBF was so good that he didn't need to get into a toe to toe fight in order to win. They had to fight like that because they weren't skilled enough to simply hit and not get hit and dish out boxing lessons. Let that sink in.:deal

    Clearly Morales in the last round had the fight in the bag. He chose to turn southpaw and brawl with Pacquiao.

    He could have ran away. But the fans wanted to see if Pacquiao could knock out Morales if they traded. And Manny was unable to do it. What's wrong with going for damage?

    You do understand that punching power is something you are born with right? And as you go up in weight punches will be less effective.

    I know power is something you are born with. What is your point?

    You said "Sack up and stop hitting like a girl" as if all guys have pop. :roll:

    Do you not see the foolishness in that statement?

    You mean a 130 years old Floyd would KO the little FAB4. We know that at 128 years old he didn't KO anybody so it's false....maybe a fly.
