(My quotes are something along the lines ) On Pacs power? Oscar - its a good thing he doesn't hit hard or I would of gotten knocked out Margarito - he doesn't hit that hard I don't feel his shots Clottey - not sure but I think he down played his power Mosley - I've never been hit like that What do you gits make of this? Was mosley a bit embarrassed that he got caught clean? What are your opinions?
da answer is EZ! Money rooinned Shayn's chin for good! saymt thing happen if he fite clotly b4 pac 2!
I think Mosley was more surprised than hurt (and likely a little less sturdy on his legs at this age). Nothing like when he was clocked by Forrest. I think what happens is they don't expect him to hit hard at all, then he his them pretty hard, they're surprised, but then afterwards they say he doesn't hit that hard because he throws a crazy volume and they end up on their feet.
I heard the opposite, I heard Clottey say pac will hurt you. They're all bsing though, pac has tremendous power. He gets by on outrageous power and athleticism over skill, even among good/great fighters.
True, to down play some of pacs opponents is pure hate cus I can't see alot of light weights doing the same.
Shane wasn't hurt. He got up, and boxed another 9 rounds, pretty easily. Pacquiao gets a lot of flash knockdowns. Just surprising people with a shot.
If you're legitimately stating that he has outrageous power, then you're basically saying he's on steroids. Manny's weight and measurements haven't changed at all since he fought Marquez. Only way to get power, without any size and weight, is using HGH............... Truth is - he's just being matched against guys who are very easy to hit. He doesn't stop anyone, unless he lands at least 300 shots.
This whole argument, is a bit simplistic. It's simple with Pacquiao. If he lands 300+ shots, he usually stops people. If he lands 200-250, he usually doesn't. It's not power. He just wears guys down. If you look at the amount of guys Pacquiao has stopped in less than 250 shots, it's WAY lower than Mayweather. Manny didn't knock Marquez out, as he couldn't land enough shots. Manny didn't knock Mosely out, as he couldn't land enough shots. Manny didn't knock Clottey out, as he didn't land enough shots Only thing that has changed in Manny's power in the last 2-3 years, is he's just being matched against guys who are very very easy to hit.
You know - it's just being a pressure fighter. If Floyd threw 1000 shots a night, and landed 350, he'd probably stop way more people than he does. But he'd have lost more times as well.
Pac has power but it's not tremendous. Considering how many times he lands clean on his opponent and how little they go down. He hits hard, but it's not vicious power.
