I think what separated manny from the rest of the elite boxers, was that his fundamentals where different.. the movements he does are what "boxing 101" coaches would tell you is wrong.. but manny dances to the beat of his own drum, and he made it work big time.
That's what make fighters...fighters, in my opinion. Learn the basics, learn all the techniques you can and do what is unique to your own musclskeletal build and what makes you feel confident. Just don't do backflips during a match
@@trcs3079 haha yeah man. i agree.. but i think manny has somewhat "unsafe" fundamentals as far as his lack of conventional defense.... but this was also the key to how he was able to throw multiple bombs at high speed because his hands are often sitting down low at an angle... its weird, but its also fun to watch and he proved it worked for him and his style of fighting
The reason behind manny breaking all those rules is because he never had a formal boxing foundation, most boxers learn the basics from their boxer fathers on inside boxing gyms. Manny never had the luxury, so he relied on his skills and god given talent, curated by his skillful coach and became who he is now.
No need the basic rule of boxing..pacman is comfort of his style thats why his the 8dwc..thats why his enemy hard to hit him..not found in the basic book of boxing..
It's because exactly of this reason too, how he breaks the rules. Manny does what Lomachenko and Usyk became known for which is he throws a ton of arm punches off one foot while transitioning the difference is Manny is so freakish he is still able to get torque and snap on arm punches.
Added facts: 1. Pac is actually ambidexterous but chose the southpaw stance (probably, so he can have slight advantage against orthodox stances in terms of experience since majority of us are right-handed). 2. His wrist size is 8". Same wrist size to Mike Tyson's. Definitely the reason why he's still power-puncher even when stepping up above his natural weight class. (And probably the reason why he can still toe-to-toe and intimidate bigger boxers like Margarito & Mosley) 3. He's not good at swimming, probably the reason why he become "overtrained" and experienced "leg cramps" since when he fought Mosley. (Instead of running everyday. I think many boxers used swimming as a form of active recovery so the joints and muscles would recover faster, and also considered as "therapeutic").
blueprint of pacquiao can never be duplicated. he knocks out opponents at will, he is the one reason why the sport of boxing lives again when it was about to die
The problem with combos, especially with Manny's is that the scorers will miss some of the ones he connects. He has to knock opponents down to get the recognition.
A good boxer knows what the rules are. A great boxer knows when and how to break the rules. You don't lose power in a punch by being on one leg. It's the same reason you can be on one leg while delivering a devastating kick.
Yeah - if you don't have the same speed, coordination and athleticism, some of those moves won't work for more normal blokes like 99% of the population.
These techniques are possible because of his monster lower body, that is why he can punch so well with just one leg on the mat, or while moving forward, or while moving laterally, he is the best example of not skipping leg day.
Pacquiao boxing style is very awkward and uglies style in boxing, but it's very insane because that is unpredictable bro by your opponent, imagine bro you're throwing a left hand punch while your front is left too then jump to another good angle to throw alot of combinations. That boxing style is breaking the rule of boxing 101 😂 specially Manny Pacquiao fake punches and akward footwork, if you're a boxer you're alwaysly see your opponent foot, ordinary boxer that having a proper training is predictable bro like if they throw a punches if their front foot is right offcourse he throw left if he's front foot is left offcouse he throw right, but Manny Pacquiao is not you will be fool by he's footwork and fake punches very unpredictable.
I think you emulating Manny, is actually improving your skills! I can relate, as I have found copying Manny actually improved my game. I love Manny’s left straight to the body followed by his right hook to the head. Sort of a variation of the 1-2-1 you were talking about. Manny’s rhythm always reminded me of a young Roberto Duran.
Cool, I also added that combo in my game. So effective even though I'm not southpaw I use to fight in South paw because those techniques really works against Orthodox boxers
He does this looking like running to your direction covering the whole ring that's why when he starts with this and you choose to dodge backpedal you're dead. Haven't seen any boxer as dangerous as Pac, so many weapons in his arsenal and he uses them intelligently (weird angles, awkward timings, precise counters, one punch ko power, etc)
@@anonfinally1692 yeah I get what you mean tho its still hard to describe that move, one or two step back is not enough for you to be safe on that move you gotta get out of the way
@@rodsonvale5933 Yeah you're right 2 steps or maybe even 3 steps back isn't enough the way he charges on you. Seems reckless at first but when you see the way he times the shots with his footwork plus shuffling between head and body targets it just looks ridiculous really I don't see any boxer past or present do this the way Pac does. I think this combo needs to be named after him lol. He achieved this because of his handspeed and the fact that he doesn't need to properly setup his torso and feet when throwing punches. He's a freak of nature no other way to describe him better.
Great video and breakdown Shane! Love Mannys straight left he used against Oscar. He also used it to split the guard in the 4th fight against Marquez and dropped him with it. Such a great punch if used correctly.
i noticed that too. manny pacquiao doesn't punch properly, how he lifts his one leg when punching straight, how he somehow punch like wing chun in flurries. he has his own style and it makes him unpredictably fast.
Janjans Vlogs please try to sparring in the middle of the ring and your opponent is just taller than you and much longer wingspan. I don't know if you punch properly to your bigger opponent 👊
@@johnwickxvii5975 people forget that maximum weight class of pacquiao is on 135 pounds lighteeight division..140 147 154 is to much for him,but because of his skill and talent he carried all the way up there🤣🤣🤣
Gotta give a like for this one. Glad to see your team and gym are still doing good and helping the rest of us pansy's learn some self-defense. I grinned ear to ear when you mentioned that Pacquiao vs Thurman fight. I remember that 1-2-3 combination he threw on Thurman like it was yesterday. Manny Pacquiao is a legend. So CLEAN that combination.
if manny stayed at a more manageable weight class say 135, he would have remained undefeated on this weight class. Sure he fights at his walking weight now but other fighters are actually much heavier and bigger than him. Doing this for years actually was mind boggling not to say the least. He was barely 5'6 going against guys who were 5'9 or taller so you can expect as he grows older the speed, especially on those feet will be degraded. He lost to Ugas because he was not as agile as before, his footwork was stale tho he still has some hand speed. The combinations that you showed while moving laterally, he barely did on his last fight. Still kudos to him for a great career, I only wished that he stayed at 130-135.
Been saying that. He don't rehydrate like his big welter opponents who goes 150-160 fight night. Even Tank at 135 rehydrates to 146 or more without clause, but he's fighting at 135. Pac is basically like Tank but in welter. If Pac fights at 135 and rehydrated to 148, it would be easier.
Agreed, the best fighters are the ones that make the sport their own, some ppl would say Muhammad Ali wasn’t boxing he was dancing, Bruce lee also utilized a very unique style which was fundamentally done in a manner people would consider weird for fighting
@@jmwes12 I didn't know running won the fights. I thought it was cause he could land whatever he wanted while the opponent was hitting nothing but air. Its ok though, I'd be mad too if my favorite fighter lost in such an embarrassing way
Don't forget about Manny's physicality as well; he got calves the size of thigh muscles which is probably how he manages to keep balanced and still have power throwing combinations on one foot
his I.Q in boxing is unique from other boxer, fighting much bigger enemies without a reasoning skill to back out and say no to opponents with another calid reason to stop a fight.
Pacquiao for me is not only the greatest boxer of a generation but one of the greatest of all time - he showed that adaptability evident in the greatest but combined it with a will to win rarely seen. Two moments in his career that stick out in my mind - 1. his loss to Morales showed everyone what he was made of. 2. When he started using his right hand when his left was still devastating. I remember first seeing him beat Barrera thinking Bruce Lee is alive!
That handcuff punch is my all time favorite. I do it in the mitts, gives me so much power with my left cross (southpaw), though you should always watch your balance.
They always tell u that u have to plant both feet to sit down on your punches. When PacMan shadow box, you’ll see that he moves his feet with every punch & is still able to generate a lot of power. His back foot would often lift off the ground also bc he was an in & out fighter. So he would often lunge into a lot of his punches
I always noticed that especially since the de la Hoya fight. He also "taps his head" before every combo doing mitts. I assume it's for him to reset and force his punches from some kind of base form that he has. Look at him when he does mitts and you will see exactly what I mean. Watch before every single combo during mitts. No one seems to talk about that
It's an old school way of practicing defence. Classic Boxers was taught to touch their nose with their gloves everytime. It is was reminder to "keep their hands up" and protect themselves at all times even on offensive attacks. Yet again, Manny modified this trick by touching his head instead. I reckon he was doing "touch your nose" frequently until he faced Morales. He was caught by El Terrible while doing that. There is a fraction of a second that you are vulnerable to an attack since it can block your vision while doing it. I noticed he began "touching his head" routine after that.
Another technique is his Offense also the Defense. He throws punches to block opponent punches and land counter punches real quick that judges didn't see.
@Charles damn lol not this again. Manny was the one that didn't want to take the advanced drug test because he was afraid of needles. And what controversial fights? Manny had his own with the shoulder injury excuse in the Mayweather fight which is why he didn't get a rematch.
I think famous boxer Ricardo Lopez also did the same thing, landing punches while on his front foot. It allowed him to shoot forward like an arrow and jab his opponent at a range that was further than a traditional jab. The unconventional range and speed of it would catch opponents off guard. It had to be set up though. And it also required defensive responsibility during and after the strike. In other words, the lack of form is not something beneficial for the average boxer but something an exceptional boxer could take advantage of.
Thats why ordinary boxers did not survive fighting pacman because of these insane and wild punching angles together with power and speed... Pacman is one crazy genius in boxing...
I always thought it was just Manny being lazy on his footwork or that because he needs to reach out his rear hand more because his opponent is taller. I noticed this when watching his fight with thurman and always wondered about this.
what makes manny special is his ability to do those moves but at high speed. anybody can study manny’s combo and incorporate it in their style, but only a few can actually move as quick. perfect example is mike tyson in his prime. so many emulate tyson’s movement but I have yet to see anyone actually deliver the shots with such speed and power.
People dismiss pacquiao as rare talent but people miss to understand he wad a hardworker at consistent training so his veterancy was a spectacle where he has alot of punches and combos in his arsenal not to mention fighting pound for pound vs the world's best champs which definitely contributed to his skill growth
that's why he is the One and only!Pacman is very different fighter, in terms of ability and skills and success even in his darkest days he is different.
That lunges 1,2 is one of the most dangerous punches to throw and it’s the reason why he got knocked out so bad Vs Marquez. So thank you for educating your viewers on the dangers of the “handcuff” punches. Fundamentals > Flash
all this works because he's really right handed...we are taught to use our strong hand as the lead hand..it works if we have a force multiplier in our right hand...also, we have natural hand eye coordination that allows us to move and use our ambidexterity in motion...we feel the flow...I recommend watching sepak tekraw to see these skills in another SE Asian sport.
What great about manny is he started from scratch. Started to box just to feed his family from a 2 dollar prize. No proper training, proper equipment, proper promotion, proper nutrition, he comes from other side of the world and have climbed his way up with just pure guts and talent. Unlike Mayweather and other great boxers where boxing runs through their genes. They were trained on the fundamentals the moment they started boxing, have proper training equipment, big promoters are just in their backyard, their body is well nourished and conditioned, well matched and paid well from their fights, and don't have to travel thousand miles just to have a good fight.
Great video mate, watched this channel for years and because of it I’ve learnt a lot for boxing and fighting in general 💯 I’d like to see you do an Usyk or Evander Hollyfield techniques if it ever came up as an available thing. Again, great videos, keep it up mate.
Manny paquiao footwork isn’t the best or that great in general What lead to his success was his insane footspeed His feet were so fast that’s why he got away with breaking all those rules in his career I’ve never seen a fighter with faster feet than manny paquiao in his prime except Floyd mayweather and they were about even...
Love this breakdown and after going through his fights both mentally and rewatching it rings true! The one time his style got him in trouble was against Marquez after 100 rematches lol. However, Manny was continuously stepping in with this lead jab and I'm not sure if Marquez read it perfectly or just had a lucky guess. The combos and style you're displaying here clearly seem much safer as you're not going forward directly towards your opponent. Do you think Manny just got cocky that he was pretty much dominating by the time he got KO'd? Either way, great analysis love your content!
Marquez figured out already how to time Manny with his jab feint 1 2 combo. It was at the feint when Marquez came in with a knockout punch. After that fight we never saw Manny do the same move again. ua-cam.com/video/19qD6WoeZKI/v-deo.html
He got cocky and want to finish him off. Marquez face got destroyed and Manny is eager to end the fight. He got impatience and Marquez timed him right away.
I believe yes. That's the 4th time they face in the ring. He got careless with that. See Undisputed by Skip and Shannon for good insights when he announced his retirement.
It was when Marquez step on pac's lead foot that makes that counter perfect. If Marquez didn't step on PACs lead foot it might not be KO, because he can slightly push back his body with that lead foot to lessen the impact of Marquez's counter.
@@ShefortheStre That tends to be Manny's problem, impatience. I love his style it's in my top5 faves but he keeps getting countered whenever he gets impatient. One of the reasons why Ugas won, Pac really wanted to fire it out. Still, I love Manny's style 🔥🔥🔥
You're not wrong! Maidana landed a few successful shots over top of Floyd's shoulder in both fights. It's about range, timing, and properly baiting your opponent to aim for your chin (and not higher, like the temple).

love the Philippine colorway Shane!!! 🇵🇭
MANNY is Boxing G.O.A.T.
I like how you sound like him every time you punch
I always thought it was just Manny being lazy on his footwork or that because he needs to reach out his rear hand more because his opponent is taller. I noticed this when watching his fight with thurman and always wondered about this.
Yeah cause mostly his opponets are tall
Manny unique fighting style, unmatched
what makes manny special is his ability to do those moves but at high speed. anybody can study manny’s combo and incorporate it in their style, but only a few can actually move as quick. perfect example is mike tyson in his prime. so many emulate tyson’s movement but I have yet to see anyone actually deliver the shots with such speed and power.
Those calves of his makes those one leg combo come with such speed and power. No one will every say he skipped leg day. 😁💪
People dismiss pacquiao as rare talent but people miss to understand he wad a hardworker at consistent training so his veterancy was a spectacle where he has alot of punches and combos in his arsenal not to mention fighting pound for pound vs the world's best champs which definitely contributed to his skill growth
Love the jacket man.. proud filipino here
this is why pacquiao is exciting to watch. not like the running around marathons other boxers do.
Freddie didnt change Mannys style. He just polished it and focus more on his power and his defense.
Manny Pacquiao is not a Fundamental fighter he's Uniquely awkward and that makes him great!
Great! Enjoyed your vid. Pacman was truly one the greatest.

Nice Shane for wearing Philippine design jacket! 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🥊
that's why he is the One and only!Pacman is very different fighter, in terms of ability and skills and success even in his darkest days he is different.
In Philippines?? He is our Hero!
Thank you Shane. He'll be written in the book. Who knows your video will be part of his tribute.
He's a presidential candidate loser 🤣
@@alcubz2622 but he's not so fawked up as you
@@gilbertcastro7621 duterte fvcked him up so bad he lost the fight 🤣🤣🤣
@@gilbertcastro7621 pactards = yellowtards
That lunges 1,2 is one of the most dangerous punches to throw and it’s the reason why he got knocked out so bad Vs Marquez. So thank you for educating your viewers on the dangers of the “handcuff” punches. Fundamentals > Flash
sending love from Ph.
Manny is a Man with a Many surprised. Hes one of the best for sure
pac proves that hardwork realy pays of
This review provides one of the finest analyses of Manny Pacquiao's boxing style. The channel is exceptional and truly merits a million subscribers.
🙏
all this works because he's really right handed...we are taught to use our strong hand as the lead hand..it works if we have a force multiplier in our right hand...also, we have natural hand eye coordination that allows us to move and use our ambidexterity in motion...we feel the flow...I recommend watching sepak tekraw to see these skills in another SE Asian sport.
Never be another pac man..once ina lifetime fighter
Pacman is insanely good to watch
You're pumped just doing the Manny, so am I!!!!
What great about manny is he started from scratch. Started to box just to feed his family from a 2 dollar prize. No proper training, proper equipment, proper promotion, proper nutrition, he comes from other side of the world and have climbed his way up with just pure guts and talent. Unlike Mayweather and other great boxers where boxing runs through their genes. They were trained on the fundamentals the moment they started boxing, have proper training equipment, big promoters are just in their backyard, their body is well nourished and conditioned, well matched and paid well from their fights, and don't have to travel thousand miles just to have a good fight.
Proud Filipino fan here😊
Great video mate, watched this channel for years and because of it I’ve learnt a lot for boxing and fighting in general 💯 I’d like to see you do an Usyk or Evander Hollyfield techniques if it ever came up as an available thing. Again, great videos, keep it up mate.
I love your jacket.
Makes me PROUD of my Country!
Love the jacket you're repping in this vid. Mabuhay!
Great content bro, and awesome hoodie!
Awesome! Thank you!
Wow!!!
Great work Shane , great analysis ,great vision coming from Deep experience ...go on champ 🌪️❤️❤️
5:50 “before you start breaking the rules”
yeah you have to be manny
Youre pure and fare to Pacman as a foreign Guy. Best wishes to You
What he is doing in 1-2 (Handcups) is similar to the super man punch. The purpose is to reach the opponent stepping back.
MP is all about footwork. Fantastic footwork
Manny paquiao footwork isn’t the best or that great in general
What lead to his success was his insane footspeed
His feet were so fast that’s why he got away with breaking all those rules in his career
I’ve never seen a fighter with faster feet than manny paquiao in his prime except Floyd mayweather and they were about even...
Every great artist breaks the rules.
That why Manny is a legend
Love this breakdown and after going through his fights both mentally and rewatching it rings true! The one time his style got him in trouble was against Marquez after 100 rematches lol. However, Manny was continuously stepping in with this lead jab and I'm not sure if Marquez read it perfectly or just had a lucky guess. The combos and style you're displaying here clearly seem much safer as you're not going forward directly towards your opponent. Do you think Manny just got cocky that he was pretty much dominating by the time he got KO'd?
Either way, great analysis love your content!
Marquez figured out already how to time Manny with his jab feint 1 2 combo. It was at the feint when Marquez came in with a knockout punch. After that fight we never saw Manny do the same move again. ua-cam.com/video/19qD6WoeZKI/v-deo.html
He got cocky and want to finish him off. Marquez face got destroyed and Manny is eager to end the fight. He got impatience and Marquez timed him right away.
I believe yes. That's the 4th time they face in the ring. He got careless with that. See Undisputed by Skip and Shannon for good insights when he announced his retirement.
It was when Marquez step on pac's lead foot that makes that counter perfect. If Marquez didn't step on PACs lead foot it might not be KO, because he can slightly push back his body with that lead foot to lessen the impact of Marquez's counter.
@@ShefortheStre That tends to be Manny's problem, impatience. I love his style it's in my top5 faves but he keeps getting countered whenever he gets impatient. One of the reasons why Ugas won, Pac really wanted to fire it out. Still, I love Manny's style 🔥🔥🔥
The 2nd technique is effective when your opponent is back peddling
Hey shane question about the shoulder roll. It protects ur chin but doesnt it leave the rest of ur face like the temple open to be hit
You're not wrong! Maidana landed a few successful shots over top of Floyd's shoulder in both fights. It's about range, timing, and properly baiting your opponent to aim for your chin (and not higher, like the temple).
Wow im a filipino and i like your Philippine Jacket Thank you and Mabuhay!👊🇵🇭
