    if you look through his opponents i cant realy see a "boxer" in there they just all seem to be "macho-men" (nothin wrong with being a brawler btw)

    i just dont think hes been in the ring with aything remotely like floyd

    You referred to them all as brawlers. That's ridiculous. Cotto is a boxer-puncher, Barrera is a boxer puncher. Morales similar though more-so a boxer. Sasakul wasn't exactly a brawler either. Marquez is most definately a boxer. Have you even watched any of his fights? It sounds like you started watching boxing in May.

    He still hasnt fought any speedy, mover, defensive types and I'm pretty certain its his stylistic kryptonite. They avoided Joan Guzman who embodied those attributes

    The nearest thing to Floyd on Pacquaio's record is Marquez

    The wording's fine. It's just that the question has been asked 100 times in various ways.

    My point is that if you fight 50+ fights, chances are good you've fought a slick boxer at least once or twice. :good
