At what he does, he is certainly the best ~ Pacquiao is a rare breed. He is the only guy that moves the way he does (bouncing around), I have never seen anyone like him. He moves like an acrobat in the ring, like he has springs in his legs and then he uses that to get in positions and land bombs at weird freakin angles. Athletically, he is as gifted as a Roy Jones Jr. in his prime, IMO. They are two different type of fighters, but they do things that you could say "that guy looks like a "super hero" in there.
that's a good analysis, his athleticism is just awe inspiring, his body just seems to be so strong and sturdy, yet he manages to keep that blazing speed Roy Jones could never trade with guys the way that Pac can, Roy was more of a stick and move type, but just as gifted in the speed department
Strong and sturdy is an understatement, the guys body since being above 140 is like a Mack truck, in part because he is not doing any cutting, he's adding to his already sturdy frame, but only adding to what looks like clean muscle mass. I agree. Each have a style that suits them. Pac can be successful by kind of hang in there and exchange and get hit more because he has proven to have a chin. Roy on the other hand, proved he didn't have the best chin so he didn't have the option to exchange IMO.
