    handspeed is just about the same(compared to Marg fight.) his footspeed caught my attention after 1st round, it definitely gone slower.

    Its really hard to say becasue when he let his hands go he was really Quick.

    To me i think he is slipping in the Stamina department, hence why his speed was there, just not as much.

    But also i did see a few times when he raised his leg like he got a twinge (i think after the Mosely KD in round 3 was once time) thats something that happens to me when i get leg cramps, only he is better at hiding his pain rather than screaming like a little girl.

    So maybe that contributed to him not looking as good, but his handspeed was there at times IMO

    Maybe he needs a stronger dose of EPO. By now I'm sure his body is building a tolerance . lol

    Hmm I didnt think he had a stamina issue on this fight, he seemed pretty fresh running after mosely after that 10th round push :lol:

    I dont know if this fight was a good indication of his foot speed to be honest , as Mosely was mostly on the run and pac didnt have to defend as much.. also the stiffness excuse :D

    His handspeed is still there, not much diffference from the Margarito fight. As for the leg-cramps, I think this may have been caused by his constant over-extending as he tried to catch Mosley. He was over-reaching a lot as Shane back-pedalled and was on his toes more, whereas against recent opponents he got to plant his feet a lot more. He may have similar problems should he face Floyd so it could be a blessing that he became aware of this against Shane, maybe there's something he can do in training to prevent these cramps happening again against opponents who are on the back foot most of the fight.

    He was definitely slower against Margarito. His handspeed looked great against Mosley.

    Thought his hands looked a tiny bit quicker, but it's probably just my mind playing tricks on me. Doesn't seem slower though.

    Pacs legs did seem slower, lets compare this.
    take a look at him vs mosley here(pac said the leg issues started in round 4 I think) so judge it on the rounds before when he is oki.

    He was clearly faster against Shane. I'm sure the handspeed of his opponents had something to do with it. He knew he didn't have to throw as fast against Margarito because he was going to be the faster guy even at 50% speed.
