Come to think of it, there are really just some style that other guys don't like.

    Most of you might have not realized it, a few weeks back one guy said that Chavez had stylistic similarity with Margo. The only guy to legitimately beat Sexy. And they laughed at him.

    Well, of course Chavez ain't like Margo, (Margo IMO is a better pressure fighter) but when he actually poured all the pressure in, Sergio showed traces of vulnerability and actually got dropped.

    You can't be blamed for thinking that had Chavez let his hands go earlier, he might have pulled it off. Which is a story for another day.

    Anyways, my point is, it looks clearer now that unrelenting pressure will still give Sergio a hard time, or probably be his downfall no matter how improved he is compared to 5 or 6 years ago.

    Same thing with Pacquiao. Well Marquez really have the perfect style to beat Pac. It seems like no matter how good he became, and how many other guy he batters up. Once Marquez is in front of him, all his offensive capabilities are toned to a minimum and Marquez is the one finding his own rhythm. Mind you, Marquez is a legend and all, but he really is a stylistic nightmare for Pac. So in Pacquiao's case it's stout heart, superb timing to counter and lateral movement is always the key. Hell, even Morales managed to pull it off.

    Any other elite fighter who you know would have problem with another style? Regardless of how good they actually are.
