    Yes that right. Pacquiao was doing things that you never thought you would see. You couldn't imagine seeing them. Whatever you paid to see Manny Pacquiao, it wasn't enough money. You knew that every fight he had back in his prime you were going to get the greatest concert of your life.

    I don't get what people are talking about when they say this or that fighter was doing something nobody could imagine or we'd never seen before. I love Manny but he basically hit people the same way I'd always seen other people hit them except he did it a little faster and a little harder than most.

    Nobody ever expected him to ascend up the weight divisions like he did. And nobody expected that type of typhoon to just come out and obliterate everything.

    Prime pacquaio was a force a tremendously high ceiling much like a 1988 Tyson.

    True, but he had precursors in Armstrong, Walker, Duran, Leonard, and Hearns.

    Overrated, never elite, peds, avoided Floyd and many other fighters.

    That's why he's not on any top 100 atg list. Rated much much below FLoyd!

    Before Pac fights like ODLH - Pac seemed impossible. Now anything is possible

    Cant believe a man could move up so many weight classes without losing an millisecond of speed, puting on an ounce of fat nor losing hardly any power.... and have so many people thinking he did it naturally

    Must be that cute lil shy facade he puts on when he's not watching roosters killing each other, bashing rival politicians or cheating on his missus

    Special indeed <3
