Manny doesn't hold his hands right, doesn't stand correctly, doesn't throw one orthodox punch and is wide open. He wins on a blitzkrieg attack. Forget Sanchez being on that top 100 punchers list. He didn't belong there. What Sanchez was was the bane to every slugger. That being: a counter-puncher with a great jaw. That's why he looked poor against Castillo, Ford and Cowdell and looked like a million against Lopez, Gomez and LaPorte. Manny is not becoming a boxer overnight. Sanchez to counter-punch him into knots over 15 exciting rounds and a clear decision. Scartissue
This would be the Sanchez that terminated Gomez,who I think is little better than Pac at 122-126 if im not mistaken Pac was stopped at this weight before,not quite sure but,I dont like Pacs chances to see 6 rounds.
Sanchez TKO 11. Pac was a little reckless at this weight and time period. Sanchez would counter him and make him pay often.
Sanchez is all wrong for Manny. Pacquiao struggled badly against Marquez at 126 (and 130 as a matter of fact). Problem is Sanchez was just a much better version of Marquez. Better counterpunching abilities, better technician, better finisher... I just don't see how Pacquiao can win here. Sanchez by late stoppage.
That and faster, stronger, better footwork and a stronger chin. I see Chava winning by a wide UD or possible late stoppage.
pacquiao is too reckless at 126, relies on his 1-2 combo and quick reflexes. sanchez counters pac's assault and buzz him often. ud for sanchez... pac loses on fantasy matchups though. we dont know what pacquiao brings in the table once he comes in the ring...
