There’s been an ongoing, carbon copy, series of events that has taken place in every Manny Pacquiao fight since he fought Oscar De La Hoya.
That procession has included Pacquiao’s opponents appearing very intent on upsetting the eight-time world champion and vowing to train like never before. Pacquiao’s opponents have been brash, confident and aggressive….. well until they actually stepped into the ring.
Ricky Hatton, Miguel Cotto, Joshua Clottey, Antonio Margarito and Shane Mosley all spoke at length about using their natural size advantages and power to overwhelm the Filipino star and then proceeded to duck, dodge, run and sometimes crash to the ground once they stepped inside the ring.
I can’t guarantee the outcome, but I can tell you this: Pacquiao’s next opponent, Juan Manuel Marquez, won’t do any of those things. In fact, Marquez has the boxing intelligence, style and heart needed to beat Manny Pacquiao.
