Manny Pacquiao's Agressive Combinations & Footwork Explained - Technique Breakdown

Mortal Weapons the Fight Comic: www.modernmartialartist.com/m...
Manny Pac is a living legend. Over a long and exciting career, Pac has thrilled and inspired countless fans with his unique, aggressive style of boxing. Along the way, he’s become the only boxer in history to earn a championship belt in 8 different weight classes.
Pacs journey as a professional fighter began at the age of 16, when he stowed himself away on board a rickety ship, looking to land his first fight. Having grown up in extreme poverty, Pac’s mother could no longer afford to feed him, and he was intent on making his way in the world as a boxer.
Pac soon grew a reputation as a ferocious Jr Flyweight, who dominated his opponents with sheer aggression and will. Despite his blazing fast speed and incredible left hand, Pacs lack of experience regularly landed him in compromising positions. It was in these instances that his true nature showed itself. Like a wounded animal, Pac was, and is to this day, most dangerous when in serious trouble. Where many would have faded or wilted under pressure, Pac has always fought fire with fire.

Thank you for doing my request to do a Manny "Pac-Man" Pacquiao Breakdown. Hopefully you can do the other Welterweight Champions as well: Keith Thurman, Shawn Porter, Errol Spence Jr. and Terence Crawford.
The Modern Martial Artist you mentioned how Pac sometimes doesn't rotate his hand when he punches to squeeze through oppo's guard. I just wanted to add that a punch like that can be slightly faster and more powerfull were it's is a much more natural movement for our bodies, also because all the force is going foreward as opposed to some muscle rotating instead. The trade off of course is it's you're less defensive were you're shoulder and elbow are lower not covering as much of that side of your head. At least that's what I've learned. Great video so far!
@Pompous Psycho Yeah, The Modern Martial Artist said it and he has a book about it, "Footwork Wins Fights".
@@tustudyis4life51 Good obeservation dude!
Jack Dempsey and Bruce Lee would agree with that assessment.
It's more frightening to hear a fighter earning a championship belt in 8 different world classes than hearing a undefeated boxer......👊👌

I don’t know why I watch these, I don’t even practice any martial arts. It’s just very interesting.
If you find it interesting, I suggest you try, man. Martial arts, in a way, changed my life.
For the same reason I watch vids about particle physics my friend. Things are just compelling in nature and watching a master go to work (And in this case have an expert analyze said master), even if they are something we never end up practicing. As Minius says, why not give it a go, there really is nothing quite like it. I would personally recommend boxing, bjj and see if you fall in love with either art like I did.

Pacquiao's style is one of the weirdest, most interesting and most effective I've ever seen. That jump in and throwing a rapid 1-2-1-2 without alot of traditional looking hooks is something to take note of and watch
he can get away with a lot of conventionally "bad" moves because of his foot and hand speed. Much like Roy Jones did.
Agree. He had a "walking-punching" weird way. He punched like a typewriter. The impacts were very hard and solid. He was a KO finisher.
Also sometimes he throw his jab from side stance position which reminds me of Bruce Lee's back fist, Pacquiao is the greatest that had ever box inside a boxing ring. His accuracy and speed and power is out of this world, plus his iq too.
Trying to copy his style is honestly a pointless fruitless endeavour.. it seems to be tailor-made for his specific physical &mental traits.. plus it's very unpredictable/unorthodox It's ironic that Mayweather is kinda the same.. except his "Philly shell" style is a more orthodox "predictable" technique that's still impossible to master in quite the same way Floyd does without having his unique skillsets. Two sides of the same coin which funnily enough cancel each other out

Manny Pacquiao is the living embodiment of the saying "the best defense is a good offense"
meaturama you kindaaa missed the point there-
@El Guapo I'm a fan of Mayweather the way he box but for fuck sake it is not entertaining, almost no KO's and just scoring. for real. Simply not a warriors way.
Best defense is ducking the fighters that can beat you. -mayweather
@El Guapo Hahaha. Not landing clean punches you say? I dare you watch the entire fight in slow motion and count. It doesn't seem like Mayweather is winning. The only thing there is, is that he was able to accomplish his main goal to chicken run in the ring hoping not to get any knockdowns because he knows that if it happens, he cannot rob Pacquiao and the judges will have trouble in making him winner as they were paid by him. Real talk!
@El Guapo It just means that defending is more costly. In Mayweather's case, the only thing that made the option of going for knockouts almost impossible is his small hands. Which broke quite a few times when he was young. Young Mayweather was really aggressive. He always went for knockouts. He stopped being aggressive because of his limitations(frail hands). If you bless Mayweather with the hands of Roberto Duran he'd be a lot more aggressive.

Pacquiao, after knocking David Diaz faced down in a 135lbs fight moved up to welterweight to Humiliate Oscar Dela Hoya, then moved down to 140lbs to put Ricky Hatton to sleep then moved up to welterweight again to stop Miguel Cotto and plays around with Joshua Clottey, moved again to Superwelterweight to break Antonio Margarito's orbital bone...

I love these breakdowns. Most times, fans associate IQ with defensive-oriented boxers but there's a ton of IQ in footwork, traps, feints, etc.
I think it takes more iq in attacking on point than defending , cause you only need to focus on not getting hit rather than hitting the enemy without getting countered
Manny Pacquiao is a complete boxer whose skill level may not be equaled by current and future boxers. He mastered head movements, foot work, fast combinations, freights, traps, offensive and defensive boxing skills. He is able to hit opponents moving forward or going backwards. Hit without being hit. Hit then move. He has displayed that ability numerous times. That is s testament to his skill that has lasted him over 30 years in this very physical sport. Most of his opponents have been taller., longer reach advantages, out weighed him. But his skill and ring smarts served him well. Most notable opponents have been Margarito, Cotto, de la Hoya. When he retires, his skill as a boxer will be missed. He is a ferocious boxer inside of the ring, but a nice regular guy outside of the ring. He never thought he was better than anyone else and never bad mouthed or trash talked about anybody. He just went into the ring and did his job and never harbored any bad feelings toward anyone. Good luck Manny Pacquiao and best wishes.

@@TheModernMartialArtist Nice
A legend
@bazooka on you sadly yeah , i wonder what floyd can do in a real fight
@@johnkylepanganiban3591 what do you mean by "real fight"?
At first glance he is a simple 1-2, 1-1-2 fighter with extraordinary stamina, thus a brawler. But thinking deeply, to be able to win with just the most basic tool is kind of genius. It's like falling a tree with just a knife. As for stamina, on top of his already strong body, he is actually excellent at conserving it.
"i'm not afraid of the man who practice 1000 punches one time, but of the man who practice one punch, 1000 times "
Pacquiao has speed, power, and stamina. He is a GREAT fighter. One of the best. But his style causes him to get hit. This is how Marquez put him to sleep. And even in many of his victories, he gets nailed quite a bit. Floyd RARELY gets hit with a big shot. Floyd is like Barry Sanders, very elusive. Sanders rarely took a big hit. He'd always make a small, subtle move, at the last moment, to avoid taking that big shot.
His style is not simple,hence no one can imitate him.
He trains for 36 rounds during training camp. That explains his stamina.
Pacs early days, he was rough all-offense volume puncher. He overwhelms a lot of boxers within the ranks. He has come a long way
Manny is the most intelligent fighter - power, speed ,will power and technical superiority . Thats why even at 40yrs old he is still a champion.
I love both legends, but I gotta go with Pacquiao, cmon now. Fighting the tops dogs of the welter weight division at age 42. If he beats Spence this year he’ll be the first ever and oldest welterweight to unify 3 world titles!
♡♡♡ PACQUIAO BEAT MAYWEATHER AND MARQUEZ, EASY. BUT THE JUDGES BEAT PACQUIAO, EASIER. ♡♡♡

I'm a south paw and watched this sparred tonight did these tactics I'm no pacman but this actually helped me aot especially being 38 now not competing anymore but t rdd ying to have alittle fun light sparring with younger guys
6:39 this is the first im seeing superman punch being thrown so precise in a championship fight. just another proof of his intellect as a martial artist.
You’d normally see Superman punches in middle to lower level boxers but Manny throwing that in a main event world title fight is really shocking considering high level boxers would see that coming from Jupiter
Lol...Pacman smiling...yezzz he smiling...cause he 's a Humble fighter...we love him...from Singapore...
What an honor to see Pacquiao fights against legends. A kid from the Philippines who is a nobody who became. Somebody....
Not somebody, he became BOXING itself.
Praise the Lord for blessing granted to this formerly struggling for survival individual
Its hungriness makes your goal into success
Socially you shouldn't listen to pacman, he wasnt that smart. Great boxer, not so good of a person.
Amen to that brother! Pacman is a true boxing legend and also a decent, very humble gentleman too!!
It’s phenomenal to see a guy with every disadvantage hight reach size weight still dish out a beating to a big majority of his opponents. And reach 8 division champion something that I DONT think will ever be matched or surpassed. 🐐 💪 🥊💯8.

@@ivankurtz6685 false....he said he skipped those divisions because he wasnt comfortable below 122. Floyd schooled him anyways
Great breakdown. Must have been hard to capture decent quality footages from Pacquiao's "Blow-by-Blow" (the name of the boxing show in the Philippines which was somewhat like Friday Night Fights) days. But looking at those clips gives us a clearer picture of how much Manny has improved technically throughout the years, and also why Freddie Roach has cemented his place among the best trainers of all time alongside his mentor Eddie Futch.
Young pac = fast and aggressive Old pac = slow, patient, strategic
Justin Bryan he was still pretty fast in his late 30s
Very true hes better boxer now back then he didn't need these skills then
You are corect!
Justin Bryan totally agree but he was tactical in his younger years as well. But his tactics were not the traditional one used by most boxers. That's what Diaz keeps saying. His awkwardness was difficult to comprehend and confuses his opponent thus makes his moves unpredictable. That's one thing common fans don't understand about his moves and that makes them all think he is just punching and throwing his fist but in reality, he has his own style and tactics that makes him land his jabs and open opponents' covers. I'd say, he's been a boxing genius but he has become more careful as he learned from his losses. I super love this man.
he get slower but he's still way more faster in most younger figther today he's just unbelievably fast
What's insane about Pacquiao is that even at the age of 40, he's still freaking fast.
He may not be as fast/explosive as before but he still faster than any of todays boxer in his division
I beg to differ esp after the Broner fight. HOWEVER! It’s his assertion in dominance, precision and power that made Broner choke on any confidence he had before the first round. On top of that, his footwork was still passable against someone(Broner) who is more ‘prime’ than he is.
@@rayoza2607 everybody has a gameplan until they get in the ring with the legend. Then they get hit more times than they can count.
Imagine him fighting a match at 50 and still winning against dudes in their 20's.
he is now smarter,wise and still dangerous
Pacquiao's tricky left and right vertical guard piercing jabs were more similar to a wing chun straight punches and his parry entries were more likely can be seen from Kali Eskrima Arnis unarmed combat principles. Slick, tricky, deadly, legendary! G.O.A.T. 🐐
Very well said,I totally agree
Most beautiful and most annoying thing about him is his innocent smile he smile every time when someone talk shit about him. He knows the end result of trash talker 😂
Even when Mayweather won, Pac mashed his face into hamburger
Even watching Manny fight live over the years its crazy how much of his technique you can miss just because of how much of it he dishes out in the ring. The slow mo in this video does a great job of capturing not just what his fast hands are doing but just how much his footwork has been literally powering his career. Being a bit of history buff I've discovered that a lot of boxing's finer points and techniques have been underutilized or lost altogether in the last 70 odd years. Manny has made himself into a more complete package than most fighters, old school techniques like the vertical fist and the foot/weright shifting while punching (Used by Dempsey, Fitzsimmons etc), physical fitness uncommon for his age, and a mature mind inside/outside the ring. In his latest fight with Broner, Manny was able to set up a few of his classic combinations on a guy who is billed as an excellent defensive fighter in his prime. IMO whatever Broner's reasons of not throwing more punches were, Manny still showed us some of his wealth of experience and the limitations of Broner's defensive techniques.

textbook boxers made their technique bad by limiting other possibilities. Pacman is the example of an outside the box thinker.
To be fair, textbook boxing is more of a guideline that should generally work for everybody and it is good enough for you to become a boxer, but not an exceptional one. It should be the base but not the end-all-be-all and boxers should adapt their style to their own strengths like what Roach and Pacquiao did to their style (and yes, it is as much as Roach's style as Pac's). This video is a good breakdown of all the things Roach and Pac did to their style that flies in the face of conventional wisdom but works because they have something to compensate for it (e.g. speed, athleticism, and a spring-loaded calf).
@@francisjordan6648 no wonder other coaches didn’t want Pacquiao as their fighter
@@francisjordan6648 trueee, man
I think he has this offensive type that is also defensive at the same time. It really is hard to see that he has a good defense when it's mixed up with his offensive style. It's some kind of martial arts where every attack has built in evade to it. Not only that if he gets hit his endurance is also very high which is kinda unfair lol. The more he gets hit the stronger he gets like a passive in a game where he gains rage in battle.
😂😂😂 op. Imbalance
defensive offensive
He's style akin to a Roman Spear and a buckler for shield. His footwork carries his style. Take that out and the huge reserves of stamina he earned you will beat him.
Great aggression and fluid motion. He really put his natural flow and aggression with a unique boxing technique that showed how creative he can be with his talent.
Pac-man is the living example of "The best defence is a good offense"

Love his uppercut with the jab hand and the straight Power left to follow. Simple combo but he makes it look like he invented it and it’s something new.
He has short arms so when he jumps in to punch you it lands perfectly. It’s like a perfect lunging shot. He connects precisely in motion at impact. That’s the gift.
Who wouldn’t love this God fearing, humble, generous, amazing fighter. Manny is far from perfect but he has a big heart inside and outside the ring - A true legend indeed.
His style of boxing is amazing to behold. His rapid punches and strategy is like a work of art. It will going to be along before we see another Manny Pacquioa in the ring, once he retired.

Watching Pacquiao's growth as a boxer has been a pleasure.

The narrator said that many trainers had refused PacMan due to his style. I wonder how many of them had fighters that had there asses kicked by PacMan.....What friggin' boneheads!
it worked for the better other trainers would've tried to change his fighting style.
Paul Price Those trainers who rejected him would mostly be Phil. trainers cuz Filipinos tend to do just that to their fellow brethren
they are kicking themselves because they let dropped the opportunity to train one of the best fighters in history. but then again, maybe Pacquiao may not have been one of the best if it was not for Roach.
@@paulveitch5870 not really sure if that's true. his former trainer went with him to the US because he can't learn anything from Filipino trainers anymore. He needed to level up in the US.
They probably couldn't handle his speed - think about it.
One of the most interesting factors in fighting (and sports in general) to me is how their styles to a degree are determined by their bodies (physiologically speaking). Like for instance Pacquiao's style is a lot of bouncing around, knockout power- and he has some huge wrists for his size, as well as calves. His body physically lends itself to his fighting style. Same with Mike Tyson but his bouncing was more of a quad dominant movement to his quads were huge.
Your analysis are brilliant and your respect for the fighter aswell as for every fighters uniqueness, thank you so very much David Christians!
Superb analysis. Pacquiao is indeed a living legend, a once in a lifetime boxer. 8 championship belts in 8 different divisions is no mean feat. In fact he is the only boxer in history who achieved that feat. A future hall of famer and a true gentleman in and out of the ring, Pacquiao wil surely be remembered as one of the greatest boxers of all time.
The best of all, I still think, of all times, but Maybe Great Ali, if not for Parkinson, could have shown us much more Still like pacman for not talking trash
He is the 2nd best of his era and a top 15 all time great without question!👍

I don't know if it's just me, but I feel like Manny has become smarter and more strategic in his last few fights.
of course, after that KO by marquez, he became better
Old pac is more patient and strategic
that's what experience does to most fighters.
Evolving experience.
@@bluez1892 His stamina never gets depleted. He just has to be more cautious in order not to fall in a counter punch.
Any Pacquiao fight fires me up, I can watch him fight all day, everyday. The guy had speed, power, all those combinations mixed with his genius boxing IQ and the heart of 10 lions. Manny is the GOAT.
Wouldn’t say the goat P4P, but Goat of ASIAN boxing for sure, I’d still argue Durán or Robinson are goat P4P
@@kiboma4209That's OK, I won't argue, with that. Everybody has their own GOAT.
@@kiboma4209 Duran top 10 but nowhere near number 1....he got Stopped by Leonard in the rematch.. Tommy Hearns brutally knocked him out cold inside of 3 rounds. Hayler beat him and won at least 10 rounds. Great fighter..top 10....but not the goat
Amazing video analysis. Will definitely be watching more!
Not being biased because I am a Filipino but, his fights are way more interesting than his contemporaries. Floyd is a brilliant in-ring tactician but I can't bring myself to watch his fights because he slowly dismantles his opponent. Slowly. Pacquiao, charges head on, and gives the fans want: a good old boxing brawl!
My two great Filipino heroes: Manny Pacquiao in boxing and Efren Reyes in 9-ball! Both unbeatable in their prime and very good human beings. I will never get to your country but my Dad was there in WWII and helped drive the Japanese out of the Pacific. Put in at Subic and built landing strips on every island leading to Japan.
Not all boxing fans like brawls. Some of us find it boring after a couple rounds. Sorry buddy. Just because you don't appreciate sophistication that's not our fault. It's the different a sculptor and a miner. You like miners. So be it.
@@rogerwilliams4742 so you dont appreciate haggler vs hearns
@@rogerwilliams4742 if by sophistication you mean like defend and run from the opponent all the time, throw some jabs to get points, and then run again, clinch when there's nowhere to run, do it over and over again until 12 round ends.. then yes, people don't appreciate it.. people paid so much money to watch a fight, not a running game..
@@rogerwilliams4742 People see sophistication as cowardice because it truly is. If he accepted Manny's challenge early on maybe he wouldn't be called one.
THE GOAT = 8 DIVISION WORLD CHAMPION
And he mowed down legendary fighters the whole way. Many of them were 3 natural weight divisions bigger than Manny too. Pound for pound GOAT? Manny in his prime or Roy Jones Jr. in his prime. Both were amazing and head and shoulders above the rest.
@misa smith who? lol
@misa smith Are you joking or did you start following boxing yesterday? Your guy is a 200 pounder who never even fought a heavyweight. Roy Jones Jr. is a natural middleweight who won the WBA heavyweight title, along with 3 other division titles. Rocky Marciano fought at 185 and mowed his way through 50 heavyweight contenders. Is Usyk pound for pound as good as Manny? You must be joking. Manny won 11 world titles in 8 divisions. Your guy hasn't even shown the guts at 200 pounds to move up to heavyweight and fight what is currently a very lackluster group of boxers.
dpatrick she’s a troll
@misa smith who you talking about? Lol. If he has flawless offense, incredible footwork and had great defense, he should be well known.
I met him at his house, a few years ago 2017 maybe I forget. Anyway what struck me most was even though he was short and always looked quite wirey when at his lower weight classes (as you would expect) you could sense and see the power in his body. He looked like he was made out of stone. Maybe all professional boxers look like that close up, either way that was the impression that stuck with me.
U mean, he looks solid
He's a boxer what do u expect
You CANNOT "SEE" power in a person's body! Lol! Power is work over time. That's it. A person can LOOK solid and muscular, yet have no power. A person can look skinny and weak, yet have plenty of power. JC Chavez Sr. wasn't muscular, yet he had tons of power. Same for Michael Carbahal and Roman "Chocolitito".
I really really love the outro, kinda put me in a sentimental state. I am so glad i lived in his era. The Pacman
I knew manny pacquaio had great boxing iq but I never knew that he had one best fight iq of all times. This seems like the first time that this has been mentioned as such since most of the time people take note of his incredible athletism not his high fight iq.
cuz some haters think he remains as a slugger and is a one trick pony they don't quite understand how he constantly adjust to his opponents plans, once he see's it he adjust and make some crazy shit to make your plans be your downfall.
I know, it's annoying how a lot of people are not willing to give him that credit because there is no way you could go up eight weight divisions and beat a world champion in each weight class and fight guys much bigger than yourself without high fight iq. His athleticism alone could not make up for that weight and height disadvantage
they don't want to, cuz that's the only crap they are throwing him in their trash talks and doesn't wanna analyze their fight. They only see one thing he attacks relentlessly and doesn't realize how he forced those opponents to do the things they did.
yeah look how he can trow counter from inside .. the version of pacquiao now is more cautious he calculate his every move now i can say that pacquiao is more scientific now than before after the 4th fight to marquez
Low social IQ, high fight IQ though.
I don't know who you are! But you ONE HELL OF A BOXING ANALYST!!!
Hopefully you know who he is by now! XD
What a fantastic video! Very professional, clear and precise descriptions. Subscribed
I have not been disappointed by a single video you put out!! Stay awesome as always
Pacquaio's footwork is a gift from the Boxing Gods.
Pacman impresses me with what he's been able to accomplish at his height. I remember reading his biography one day at Borders and becoming a fan of him. Freaking hiding weights on him so he can make the scale and shit.
Pacquiao fought at the heaviest weight class his body frame would allow and was still able to be competitive against the best fighters those weight classes offered. Most fighters lose weight to fight smaller opponents
Dude was so poor instead of eating to gain the weight needed, he had to put weights in his pants to make the weight in.
MrArhjayy probably richer than you bud. You’re probably too broke to even pay for a nutrionist expert to help you gain weight you anorexic fuck
@@giancarl1014 I think the previous guy was referring to Pacman's amateur days (at 16 years old) when he was only starting and so poor that he had to hide weights in his pants to make the scale.
Rio the MadHater. evidence?
Thank you for being so technical. Appreciate the effort!
The only reason I have started watching boxing. Absolute legend.
This is the content I subscribed for 👌👍
Amen
Thank you so much. You're last line is so true. "He earned his place, as a living legend, a true hero, a brutal and a beautiful art of boxing"
Watched every fight live since 06, those clips bring me back
Those videos are great. It must take a lot of time, knowledge and hard work to achieve. Thank you!
1.5k likes to 5 dislikes has to be some kind of record. AMAZING content man. This is how you build new boxing/mma fans. By instilling knowledge that they then can use in spotting the great new fighters coming up in our era.
those dislikes are mayweather ball lickers
its 17k likes and 300 mayweather fans june 29,2019
Nice content as always! Very informative Im hyped up on how you disect PAC's signature punch: Lead Left Hand leap to right (side step) Btw below are my fav fights of Pacquiao (for those who want to know - thumbs up if you agree :)) Hardest fights: vs Juan Manuel Marquez Evolved from puncher to boxer puncher: fights with Morales Seen his best combinations: vs David Diaz Most tactical fight: vs Delahoya Best knockout: vs Hatton Best fight: vs Cotto (rnds 1 to 4) Most dangerous fight for Pac: vs Margarito *took so much prime out of him This is why he became the "Fighter of the Decade" THE LIVING LEGEND!
I agree with your list.
@veins almighty Clottey has the tightest defence (not sleekest), Pac's punches cant penetrate, if clottey actually fought that night Pac will also be in trouble as much as he fought against Margarito, dont know if Clottey is just very weary of Pac power so he chose to be gunshy instead of throwing punches 🤔
@@glennalcober6142 agree with you with the tightest defense, but I have to disagree on the others.. if he fought manny that night and left his tight defense.. he would have lost the fight immediately..
the best punching bag manny pacquiao ever used brandon bambam rios 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Well done brother. Very informative. Keep it up. Pac-Man is awesome!
One of the greatest of all time in my books.. what a specimen..
Age will catch up to any athlete sports wise even in regular ordinary lives. The legendary Manny Pacquiao had helped the sport of Boxing to get up on its feet & knees by bringing the excitement Lovely appreciated documentary from H.B.O to explain how well deserved Pacquiao is was and still.
Boxing wasnt on its feet and knees...viewership was higher then ever before Pacquiao became a mainstream name after beating oscar
May i add pacman can throw punches in every angle
@meaturama haha
You're lying, I can see it in your name
May I add, that's nothing special. Just because you only watch Pacquiao fights, I know that blows your mind. Sorry.
All of boxer is dangerous but all of them become change there style in the ring when they fought manny No one can break Mannys offences that's why all of them turned into defensive style still Manny is a beast.
@@rogerwilliams4742 he doesnt just throw punches in every angle he also throw them at off angles.
Great video! I'm a huge fan of the breakdowns. Very well done!
Nice skill deduction. I really learned a lot of things. I don't even realized the display of skills that Pacquiao shows every fight. Well done! On cutting the clips though everything is almost identical.
Pacquiao, the greatest of all time🙌🙌🙌
Sure. Floyd is better defensively. Since he is basically using the rules of boxing ang being great at it. But thats just it. Nothing spectacular. I will remember pac Roy jones Tyson Ali Sugar ray Marquez But not floyd. Because floyd is just a boxer. Not a warrior. Warriors dont hug and expose their backs midfight just to abuse the rule of no hitting at the back. Warriors go for the kill not for the points. Boxing is entertainment. I didnt watch for someone to win with points. I watched to see warriors fall down and get back up again. Not staring angry at the ref for not helping him.
ELITE COCK FIGHTER you forgot dela hoya on that list, and I agree, floyd is a remarkable athlete, he has an immensely effective strategy and used it on all his fights to win, no one can deny he is a winner. But he’s no warrior, people watch his matches and fall asleep half the time, that’s why no one’s really rooting for him when he fights, he just can’t give us anything to be excited about.
Any fighter that has the balls to step into the ring is a warrior. If you actually watch Mayweather in the first half of his career, he was rather aggressive.
U forgetting frazier
ELITE COCK FIGHTER agree!
where is fraizer on that list
My dad grew up fighting and boxing, he fought briefly in the amateurs as well. We've been fans ever since I was young, and we used to train just to stay in shape and for me to learn how to defend myself. He would always stress two things, especially when we'd put on gloves and headgear and spar: don't sleep on the jab, and angles, angles, angles. Pacquiao is one of our favorite fighters, and every time we'd watch him fight, my dad would gush over all the crazy angles he would employ to send punches coming from seemingly every direction. The guy felt like he could almost be in multiple places at once. It's something that's always stuck with me and made me appreciate fighters who use angles to their fullest effect to mix up their offense and defense, guys like prime Lomachenko. Always a treat to revisit videos like this!
11:16 the timing on that one with the music is very nice! I appreciate your editing.
He was an absolute pleasure to watch. And thanks again for another great breakdown. Outstanding.
YES!!! MANNY PACQUIAO THE ONE AND only Eight Division World champion!!!! The most greatest and humble fighter ever I've seen!!!!
You really studied Pacman's moves thoroughly. Good job!
It's impressive how well/detailed David studied those little moves.
Been waiting on this for ages!
Finally! Someone just learned and studied Manny's techniques. Great video with right explanation.
Pacqiauo is one of the most incredible fighters I ve ever seen in my whole life. I love every one of his fights. Very entertsining and full of action.
Nicely analyzed, and easy for a non- fighter like me to understand. Been a boxing fan all my life. Local story, a young teenage, Tyson sparred with and knocked a much bigger man, trained boxer backwards(a local boxer aquaintence). The youth advisor and boxer, worked at a lock down, youth facility Tyson was sent to, Tryon School for Boys in Johnstown, NY. Amsterdamian, Bobby Stewart, trained and turned pro for a few fights, and spent some training time with Cus DAmato before he took on training Tyson. This was back in the 70's when the "Friday night fights" were at Russo's Bar in our hometown, Amsterdam NY. Following his youth facility sentence, Tyson and Stewart stayed in contact, and a few years later when Tyson exploded professionally(prior to the Don King years) he gifted Bobby a new Cadillac limo... Bobby always said, Tyson was student of boxing, and a naturally fierce competitor(learned as a young gang member and street fighter in NYC), but Cus was the one who shaped those great natural skills into an unstoppable force in the ring.
