    I think Hopkins footwork has been a big factor in his career longevity

    I agree, it's ironic coming from a guy that always talks about speed and power though. Did you find yourself while you were banned?

    Pac has amazing footwork but he often gets into bad positions or is off balance after a left hand. It's just difficult for people to exploit because of his speed. His defensive footwork is pretty good, not great.

    Ironic but true. That's not to say Pac's footwork is bad, he has some of the best footwork in the game. But Marquez fought him 4 times, not surprised he was able to exploit Pac's weaknesses by then.
