Manny Pacquiao - The King of Stamina?

Pac's is fantastic, but not the best by any means. Williams I rate as having the best, he moves a lot and quickly, punches with authority and can throw 100+ punches around consistently while walking into and through whatever the other guy is throwing. Margo's a close 2nd but for output and movement with Calzaghe closesly followed. I know he only throws mainly arm punches, but the volume, movement and weight of the guy make it impressive to watch (personally speaking of course!)

 

Consider Calzaghe is at an age where he's supposed to be past it and looking at retirement (the last part is true), and no one anywhere near him in the divisions can keep up with him...

 

Fair do's.

I've said he's got exceptional stamina, it's just for me Margo and calzaghe is slightly more impressive, Margo arguablly takes more shots than pac, so i can see someone's argument for him edging calzaghe but not Pac. Williams is a good shout aswell.

Anyone remeber that thread about the heavy?

 

Not seen the thread - but doesnt Povetkin have a very high output?

 

Yeah it's good for a heavy, it might have been him but not sure. Got a feeling it was one of the Klits, but i cant be arsed checking all the threads to find it.

I think it might have a projected total they worked out that he would have got to near 900 -1000 punches if it went 12, and when someone said projection means **** all they pointed to a previous fight where he got close. Or i could be mental and imagined the whole thing:think

 

You have to judge stamina with regards the weight class a boxer is fighting in, ie. you have to compare their stamina with that of other people in their weight group. For that, i find it hard to tear apart Pac and Calzaghe, whether Joe throws his weight in every time or not (it's obvious that he does for his straight shots) there is still no one in any weight class near his that could compete at his pace.

 

you have to also take the fact that pac is now fighting on weight class that hes never fought before, in diaz fight his first figh at lw according to according to compubox pac broke the trend on punch out put on that division in punches thrown specially on power punches... and as i remember him kicking to another gear in round 8th where he was supposed to have faded a little.. thrown hundreds of punches but still throwing punches and power punches

 

margo, joe, manny, and pw all have great stamina.

 

Pac fights explosively, anyone who trains knows that throwing fast explosive punches are alot more draining than arm or heavy handed punches. To be explosive means you basically have to explode your whole body into that punch, thats not just draining your arm, it drains your body from your toe to your fist.

manny has amazing stamina.

 

not the best but one of the best :good

 

Pacman does have the best stamina in boxing IMO.

His fights are usually fought at a higher pace than Margarito's or Calzaghe's, he throws punches with more power than Calzaghe, gets involved in more give-and-take exchanges, his movement around the ring is faster and more frantic - I don't see the argument for having either Margo or Joe above him. He fights at a significantly higher pace.

 

(cough) nuthugger (cough)

 

He's second to Margarito.

 

Pacquiao man love is too much. Tone it down.
