Is Pacquiao the best fighting specimen on the planet?

I agree.Manny was born to kick some serious ass.

Floyd looks more like a track and field athlete imo.

 

I've seen him fight since 1995-1996, and he really does love to put on a show that's worth the price of admission.

All out punching.

He treats the fight game as showbiz. He's an entertainer on stage performing a live show.

No dead air. No dull moments.

If it aint entertaining, if it gets boring, he'll feel like he failed.

Not going in there to kill or seriously hurt his opponent, but team up with him to create a great show for the people, be famous and earn better and better "talent fees" in the future.

That's probably why he tries to go into acting/singing (even if he sucks) he's just a born entertainer.

He's said that he fights ugly and unorthodox, far from his idols Oscar Dela Hoya and Ali's style, but he compensates with a lot of excitement.

 

I think so. The man is a fighting machine. He has that look, he tries to hurt you, and his mental strength is incredible. I would hate to be his opponent - it's like you're fighting multiple people because he can do so many things and you never know what he's going to do next.

 

best blend of speed, power, and killer instincts.

 

I think he's just a bit too compassionate for that moniker- but i can't thik of any better, surprisingly.

 

What I like about Pacquiao is the way he has improved his skill set. He was already in the P4P argument BEFORE he added that right hook.. as good of a right hook as I've ever seen from a southpaw.

 

He's damn fun to watch, that's for sure.

 

Yes, I think Pac is "the best fighting specimen" on the planet. As odd as it may sound, sometimes "skills" and "athleticism" get seriously over rated. Boxing fans seem to under rate a fighter's will. Look at the guy in my avatar. 39 of his 42 wins came by KO, and a lot of the guys he knocked out had more boxing skill than Danny did, but they were not better fighters.

 

Pac is probably one of the best in the world fighting with his fists. But a world class kickboxer or MMA fighter won't have any problem beating him up.

 

Pac is a natural fighter. I hear steward keep saying that pac has the instincts of a fighter. What amazes me about pac is that he hasn't lost his hunger I mean for all that he has achieved he still looks to be the hardest working mother****er in the gym. The blend of physical gifts, power, stamina, speed, determination and especially work ethic is unparalleled.

 

i couldnt disagree with that. the dude is a natural fighting machine

 

I agree.
