How the HELL does Manny generate so much power???

As stated earlier, speed and his freaky legs.

 

15" calf muscles. Compare that to Cotto's which are only 12. Power comes from the legs and delivering it upwards.

 

You beat me to it. Yeah he's got amazing strength in his legs and that's where he generates a lot of his power.

 

Mexican steroids are underdosed and often dirty

 

he put his body into his punches. Manny got very strong legs and when he hops he is throwing his body behind the punch. In short, he knows how to put his body into his punches and got good balance.:tong:yikes :admin

 

Just like in many other sports, power comes from the ground up. The real amazing thing about Pacquiao is that he can quickly transition from bouncing around to being in position to sit on a punch or a flurry.

 

Pick a fight in the Philippines and you'll be amazed everyone throws wild punches the way Pac does. Thank God we now have more Boxing gyms to change that awkward style.

 

Coz of this:

its the legs they act like a spring. tiny movemnet of the legs transfered all the way up through the body building power as it is transfered from muscle to muscle then unleasing it all through the arm.

Its like cracking a whip tiny slow movement of the hand generating enough speed to break the sound barrier at the tip

 

Every time he moves up in weight he seems to be throwing puches at the same speed he was at lower weight.

Feather Weight speed + 145lbs = Power!!!

 

SPEED along with FEINTS!!!!...

when you Feint and throw the other GUY doesnt see the punch coming...increasing the effect.

THE PUNCHES you dont see hurt the most....along with those Monster Legs...they belong on JAY CUTLER

 

His calves.

 

It has to be his big old legs, just like Naz.

 

Yup. Something he has in common with Prince Naseem, 'the other' absurdly hard punching midget.

 

He eats spinach and becomes the Filipino Popeye.
