http://boxingchannel.tv/jorge-linar...ally-sound-than-khan-and-faster-than-pacquiao I think Ariza is way over-hyping this statement right here. I watched Linares;s last bout and the dude is a solid and great fighter. Faster than Manny though? wrong? More technical than Amir, maybe. Alex and freddie are hyping him big time, so lets wait and see what training with these two guys will bring out of him.
Amir isn't really that technical. Linares is a very calculated fighter. And faster than Pac? Maybe the hands. Pac is 32 now. But Pac moves around the ring so damn fast. Linares' footwork is not that fast.
I would have to agree with Ariza: more technical than Khan and faster hands than Manny at this point. Working with Ariza will make him so much better. However after watching his last fight I thought: damn why the hell does he make it hard on himself?!! If he increases his confidence to a new level he will be a real threat. To me right now he's only a potential threat.

Amir is still more technical, Pac is still faster. Linares still has to prove he can be faster and more technical. He still has to eat more nachos, if you know what I mean.
