It's the angles that Pac throws his punches.

It's the punch you don't see that knocks you out. No one sees the punch coming because he throws it from odd angles and with speed.Comment

Well, it's easily described as speed kills. Pacquiao has the speed which catches a lot of fighters with punches they had no idea where they came from. Add the nice pop he already had from having heavy hands(Manny's fists were bigger than Cotto who is naturally a bigger guy than Manny). Also Pac spars consistantly with middleweights which I'm sure makes him want to hit just as hard as they are to make himself feel that much more powerful. Roach said when Pacquiao was at 130lbs, he hit like a middleweight. Probably stretching the truth but not far from it. It's all about them heavy hands with blinding speed.Comment

PAC is a natural born puncher, that's all there's to it !!
Trust me guys, I've trained alongside noobs who punched hard their first day in the gym(although their technique was lacking, but the pop was there from the get-go), I've also trained alongside folks who have been training for a few years and to this day are unable to hurt a fly!Comment

Yeah, that is true though. In my gym, I'd spar with different cats and some of them looked built and "looked" strong, but damn, I'd always be like, when is that strong punch coming? It never did. Then I'd be in with average looking dudes who aren't skinny but not built or strong looking persay, and I'd be getting hit by heavy shots I felt but didn't think I would because they weren't loading them up. Heavy handed and the way they position themselves to throw a punch makes difference. But a lot of it is born in you.Originally posted by LATINOSNOBAYAG View PostComment

leverage....speed
You will notice he uses his leg too on most of his punches like leaping forward.Comment
