    problem is, even in his crudest days at 122LBS-130 LBS, backing up pac was difficult because he hits hard. Now its even harder becuase he not only hits hard but also uses angles and has a better footwork. Pac would usually counter against an opponent that jabs to back him up. or else, he circles with his feet and stay in the middle of the ring to continue teeing off. If that doesn't work, pac backs up to the rope only to turn his opponent and leave him vulnerable. i've never seen anyone better than pac with turning an opponent. when all else fails, pac slugs it out in the rope and makes his way out. problem is, no one can exchange with pac without getting hurt or Knocked down

    Marquez was never KO'd last time I checked so holding that over Floyd's head isn't really fair and Pacquiao Floored Marquez 4 times in 2 fights and couldn't put him away so....

    and Pacquiao has been KO'd and knocked down multiple times his chin is C+ at best

    If you're under 150 pounds, wait till Pac's 60, nail his feet ta the ground 'n blindfold him.

    All his recent opposition couldn't time a right hand if their lives depended on it. They were basically naked and had no cover the moment they let their jabs go.

    1. A focus boxer with counter punching ability, good jab, good defense and elusiveness.
    2. A well gamed brawler with counter punching ability, good defense and power.
    3. A focus boxer puncher who can follow the Marquez or Morales blue print.
    None of the above should be weight drained to make this fight. It should be at a weight where both fighters are comfortable with the conditions.

    I don't think a Marquez Jab or a Mayweather Jab would affect Pac in this stage of his career. Margarito was throwing descent jabs at Pac in the early rounds ( Rd. 1 || 1:54 ) but Pac was able to counter that with his right hook to the head. Something Pac wasn't doing against Marquez. It just shows you how Pac has improved under Roach.

    Although Margarito doesn't have a jab comparable to marquez or Mayweather, Pac was still able to counter a descent Jab against a longer and harder puncher. Pac will still improve.

    Be Leonard or Hearns. The "Marquez strategy" wouldn't work today. Pac can cut the ring off now and he's got a right hand. If your smaller then Pac, forget about winning. Floyd doesn't have the style to beat Pacquiao.

    can't be done. i think Ali would have caused him a bot of trouble in his prime, but other than that...

    How? Please Explain.

    Please explain how a fighter can evolve into a different or better fighter, if you continue to fight the same kind of STAND FLAT-FOOTED, NO MOVEMENT, NO COUNTER-PUNCHING, NO DEFENSE PLEASE HIT-ME OVER AND OVER AGAIN STYLE?

    Please Explain.

    Just take a look...What do you see? Pacquiao throwing a left while the right hand with way down, chin exposed. Imagine a fighter with the ability to side step that left and counter with something back. If a fighter is going to do this (BELOW) for the Majority of the fight...Pacquiao will win EVERTIME (note a different photo with him throwing the right hand this time, while the left is way down and chin exposed).
