Lydell Rhodes, who owns an perfect 19-0 fight record with nine KOs, agreed, saying he has never faced a fighter as fast and as intense Pacquiao.
"Counting all the boxers I meet in the ring, whether in sparing or actual fights and all I've seen, Manny's the fastest, the quickest to respond to any given situation," Rhodes attested in a separate interview.
"He's too fast that if you blink, he'll be connecting three, four or simply a barrage of punches you wouldn't know where they're coming," Rhodes said. "He's so intense that you have to remain focus otherwise you'll get hit. I know (Zab) Judah is quick, but Manny is quicker."
"I've also seen several hard-hitting boxers and I can safely say that Manny is one of them," he said. "The one only one boxer I've seen that hits faster than many is (Frank) Bruno, but he's a heavyweight and that explains."
