How will the KO affect Pac's fighting style ?

paulie is a beast. pauli ktfo 1 pac.


paulie's featherfisted iron fist would trouble pac's crack.
jaw.

 

Maybe, it's hard to say. I don't think Marquez has the same speed or stamina to outbox Manny like he's done in the past. He's clearly all about power and loading up on his shots now. The dynamic between the two has effectively inverted with the new Marquez- Marquez has more firepower, so Manny has to try and box. It used to be the other way around, but not anymore. For the record, I thought he looked a lot better boxing early in the 4th fight than he did for much of the 3rd fight- his lateral movement/head movement were a lot better, and he had some good upper body movement as well. I don't think it's too late for Manny to adjust and refine his style further in that direction to compensate for his losses in speed and reflexes, since it looks like that's exactly what he's been up to in his recent camps (a little like Marquez has dealt with the decline of some of his own physical attributes by reinventing himself as a conservative, but huge puncher rather than the more active boxer he's been for much of his career.)

 

When will people realise, a style like Pacquiao's can only be effective for a limited amount of time because of age/athleticism/conditioning. Others styles such as Hopkins, Mayweather etc have more longevity.

 

I don't think from the one fight we can safely say Marquez has suddenly switched his style to slugger. His speed may diminish as he ages, but I think he still has enough limberness to capitalize on a more patient Pacquiao. In the 3rd, Manny was expecting Marquez to counter, and Juan won the waiting game, and took the initiative leading in spots. If Manny tries to box, unless Juan further declines, I see another competitive but wide decision for Marquez.

 

He's been there twice before. He maybe past prime now but I don't think it's the end of the road for him considering that he was winning his last fight until the KO.

 

A shot Pac will still **** Malignaggi!

 

It'll leave him shell shocked and weaken his punch resistance. Paul Williams wasn't even knocked out that bad

 

Pac is the same fighter he's always been. He's been KTFO more times than Khan so the KO isn't anything new. He just needs a different protein shake formula from Ariza.

 

With what ??? Malinaggi is taller, faster, much more skill / boxing IQ, much better chin. PAC has nothing.

 

This is the third time he's been ktfo so who knows?? IMO he will think twice before rushing in like an amateur that's for sure

 

The first two KO's don't come close to what JMM did to Pac.

Hope he recovers well but he was comatose for close to two minutes most boxers
are never the same.
