    Every boxer trains with plyometrics, boxing is of and in itself a plyometric sport. This thread is rather redundant

    military pushups and frog jumps(squatting while using your finger tips to touch the floor and then jump straight up while throwing your hands for the ceiling) would be great examples. for the most part they don't recquire weights and there's always a relaxed position involved. i learned them in basketball and boxing back in highschool. if anything your lower body should benefit greatly, like with explosiveness from a standstill.

    From my point of view, the size difference will be the main factor.

    DLH is more skilled, but so was MAB.

    DLH does'nt fight all that much different than MAB....they're both jabbers who's main weapon is the left hand.....both hooking very well with that left.

    ....but they both have the same weakness.......there right hands are not much to speak of.

    If Pac were a legit Welterweight or at least proven he could fight with Welters, I'd be picking him to beat DLH.

    The difference to me is going to be size.......DLH is MAB but with a bigger reach, and bigger body frame.

    Because of DLH size, his punch resistance against a smaller fighter will also be a difference maker.

    DLH has more skill than Pac, but size will be the key!

    i have a feeling it might get stopped on cuts in dlh's favor. manny said he wanted to focus on dlh's body so he's gonna be left open more than often. manny's shown he has a great beard, but has awful balance and might get dropped even tho he won't get hurt. oscar catches alot of punches on his gloves and that's where i can see manny going upstairs then downstairs. i want manny to win, but realistically it's dlh tko10 pacquiao

    SAME here! I still would not be surprised if DLH ko's PAC due to size difference! But as a Pac FAN, i'm hoping that the OPPOSITE happens..

    PAc ko's DLH!
