Untrustful and greedy Schaffer would had hyped him as better than the filipino.How he is worst than Pacquiao, he hypes him as equal. But whatever, anyone who knows a bit about boxing can see the difference between the two with their own eyes...
One who havn't saw a Pacquiao fight, reading this forums would think Pacquiao is a bum of Butterbean levels.The fact is Pacquiao is one of the best and most awesome fighters of this generation, and he is a Warrior.The haters only are some biased on the internet who doesnt found nothing to do but hate.He is one of the most explosive and exciting fighters in history, and with time even the haters on the internet will realize it, and will miss him when he is retired.
Pacquiao is past his prime but still is much fastest, better form in his punches, better balance, and better explosive footwork.And I would say he is more versatile has more experience against all type of fighters and situations, and had much better oposition. I like Matthysse, but Pacquiao is much better, at least at this point.
I'd say the main difference is that Matthysse's promoter hasn't kept him away from slick black opponents. Other than that the two are pretty much identical.
Morales, Márquez and Bradley are slick and much better oponents than Alexander, shot Judah and Peterson.Pacquiao is better boxer than Matthyse and faster too.
even now Pac would easily beat Matthysse, way too quick for the guy, Lucas would get shell shocked and stopped if the fight happened this year, too slow for Pac! 2009 Pac would KO him in 2 rounds.
Luc punches too wide. Other than the power and explosiveness (and to what degree), there's no comparison.
Style makes fights. You need to pot shot and run to beat lucas. Pac would go head first and knock outcold.
