    Manny is the ultimate brawler at this stage. He has incredible toughness, punching power and speed but is using his skills far less these days. His footwork is actually bad because he is still off balance alot of the time when punching in combination. He simply does not have a good jab at all.

    He has great foot speed but technically it isn't brilliant. He also relies far too much on his foot speed for defence and offence instead of proper head movement, parrying shots and cutting off the ring. Look at the diaz fight for example, manny showed some tremendous skill in that fight instead of just trying to war with his opponent. His right hand is good for an elite fighter but not a deadly weapon like some other fighters. The left hand though, well the use of that weapon is well documented.
