1) offense is defense - that pretty much describes manny pacquiao..just because he doesn't use the shell doesn't make someone defense deficient..no singular type of defense is the best..the best defense is something that plays to a fighter's specific strengths and style...in manny's case his speed and power to successfully nullify his opponents offensive output..you don't have the victories over the type of fighters he has and his fight record and say he has no defense..offense as defense is something even utilized as a main philosophy in other fighting styles outside of boxing..you can only slip, parry, roll, dodge, duck, bob & weave ,or block so many times in a fight you'll still get tagged and then you have to find some way to end the fight..manny just cuts to the chase and excelled
2) Lets see from your posts in that Roberto Duran thread to sum up that were false you have no knowledge of Pernell Whitaker's (the greatest defensive fighter in the past 3 decades) career..anyone would laugh at you like you were an idiot and get at you like i do if you try to compare sweet pea's opponents to floyd's..actually having the gall to ask who did pernell fight or boxing physiology like the factors of why a certain fighter would decline and age is not the only factor nor the most concrete factor..those were glaring falsities you mentioned among your incoherent ramblings of you pointing that duran lost in his career period as a main argument on why he can't say what he said about Floyd..there were too many of those to list lol
the reason i get at you and say you don't know what you're talking about...from the comments you say about boxing on here most people would put you as a troll or ignorant/not knowledgeable..you show up in every thread or post about floyd (except when he's mentioned in the official boxing thread since you know better than to go there post what you post) in the ring to add your stannish comments about him.....yet contribute nothing to the non floyd boxing threads which now there are plenty of them..you don't even have rudimentary knowledge about the sport..can't even tell me who's your leading fight of the year candidate for 2013 and why.....my posts on boxing >>>>>>>>> your posts on boxing..no one would disagree
