    I agree with you with almost everything you said, with the exception of him blowing guys out.

    When has he blown a guy out? Diego Corrales is the only time I can think of personally. He does box really well, I would describe what he does as a shutout--definitely not a blow out though.

    He beat the **** out of Gatti. Gatti had an awful lot of mileage under his belt but he demolished him for 6 rounds.

    Kind of hard to explain the timing. When I spar with guys, I occasionally use the shoulder roll because it saves my legs and I can time the blocks and counters. When they start realizing what I'm doing and change up on their attacks, then I stick and move.

    It depends on the opponent. If the guy is very predictable like Margarito is probably going to be, you do it to get some good shots in so eventually you can break him down to a speed where you can comfortably box him for the rest of the fight. This is what Mayweather does so well, he can continually move, break down his opponent and eventually settle into a rhythm which he dictates.

    I doubt if Manny can pull this off but if he does, he will become the complete boxer.

    But Floyd also Known for pea sized nuts. He will be uncomfortable there with Pac. I hope he can Grow that Pea Nuts so we can find out.

    Pac can emulate Floyd. But Floyd cant emulate anything like Manny. Even Floyd Sr tried to emulate Pac during the Pac-Hatton 24/7. Look what Happened? Pac annihilate his student. Pac's one of a kind!! Nobody can do what he's capable now.

    I guess it could be kind of useful if Margarito were to back Pacquiao onto the ropes...but other than that, I wouldn't like to see him use it during long periods of a bout.

    Why because you saw glimpses of a shoulder roll? Why hasn't Pacquiao been emulating Mayweather's defense over the years once in the ring then?

    Because He dont need to. Pac's destroying Legends from 112-147. Now he's moving up again, Pac's Probably training to deal with much bigger guys. Floyd will be always the same Defensive fighter but Pac was already a Great offensive fighter now adding more Defensive skills to deal with much bigger punchers.

    In Short Pac's improving while Floyd nuts keep on shrinking.
