Manny is a tough matchup for anyone and he has a real good chance at winning this fight no doubt but with the way Tito hit I could easily see him losing the fight for 8 rounds and one mistake and Mannys lights go out. Manny also loves a good fight and is willing to exchange and that is just a terrible idea with Tito. I like Tito with the late KO
Tito is too still and predictable? Have you ever seen a WW Trinidad fight in your life? If anyone is timing anyone with a lefthook it's Trinidad, the only way Pacquaio is going to land his left is to stand in the pocket with a bigger, stronger, harder hitting man with ATG power. The only way for Pac to land ANYTHING he'd have to get in close with Trinidad, mind you Trinidad is 5'11 while Pacquaio is about 5'6 and a half. Trinidad is the absolute WORST boxer you want to trade with, especially at welterweight. Trinidad feeds off of fighters coming to him, Pacquiao does the same... except if they're both trading shots, it's a no brainer who's going to win those exchanges. If a slow midget was able to put Pac to sleep at WW, just imagine what a chunky left hook from Trinidad does to Pacquaio. You're acting as if Pacquaio's and Trinidads power are comparable at WW, they're not. Trinidad's power at WW was legendary.
Well their power is comparable imo. Pac was able to drop and make guys run or cover up like Mosley, cotto, clottey. PACs chin is not that vulnerable either, one perfect shot from JMM and suddenly everyone Pac fights knocks him out. Cotto and Thurman are decent punchers and they couldn’t even put a dent on Pac. Think about it, what atg was Tito dropping at WW? He got dismantled by Winky, couldn’t hurt ODLH and couldn’t stop guys like Whitaker and Camacho. So when facing guys of similar caliber as Pac, he wasn’t stopping them. His best stoppage is Vargas who played right into his hands. Pac too nimble for Tito. 2010 Pac probably only loses to guys like SRL and Hearns. Jmm always a nightmare for him. Floyd is 50/50 considering he took 4 rounds off him with 1 arm whilst floyd was on all kinds of fluids. As for the guy saying mayorga because of pressure, lol, basing this off the horn fight. Prime Pac was THE pressure and stamina. That’s why he was referred to as the Tasmanian devil in the ring. Pressure fighters was like pizza to him until he got too damm old and only fights in spurts.
It's not comparable. Pac has scored 3 stoppages, that's right THREE stoppages in 17 fights at WW while Trinidad scored 30 KO's in 36 fights at WW. The Winky fight happened at 154 after Trinidad retired and became a part time boxer, DLH ran the last 3 rounds because he was SCARED of Trinidad's frightening power which carried late in the fight, he thought he was winning so he avoided exchanging at all costs. Whitaker and Chavez have never been stopped and have been known for their legendary chins, the fact that Trinidad didn't stop them because they'd rather survive than get knocked out is a weird point to bring up. The WW division is the most historic division in boxing history, in order to make it in the top 20 you'd have accomplish extraordinary things. The fact that you think only Leonard and Hearns "probably" beat him at 147 just shows your ignorance on boxing and its rich history. The rest of your points aren't worth going over.
Pac will win on points. You all forgot that disciplined fighter that fought ODLH and kept on focusing on the monster that egged Cotto to hit him more. Pac is too accurate with his shots and too good with his positioning and too quick in the ring for Tito to stand a chance. I mean f*ck. Did you all forget how he always made a stationary target out of everybody who thought they would just bully Pac in the ring? That's because of great ring generalship, and still, after making a clown out of Thurman while his stamina lasted, you all still doubt how great Pac is with positioning himself against his opponent, and that includes gauging distance and delivering counters. Now if we are talking about a rematch, then Tito will spark Pacquiao ala JMM. But if it's the first fight, nuh-uh, Tito won't be able to handle somebody as quick, fast, powerful and ring-crafty as Pac. ODLH is nothing compared to how great Pac is with creating openings and delivering punches at the weirdest angles. I will not be surprised if Pac even scores a flash KD like he did vs Cotto and Thurman.
You lose credibility big time with posts like this. No one accepts the theory of the pre fight pAC shoulder injury other than biased fans of pac
Bit of a silly argument. Tito fought most of his career at 147 so he fought a lot of bums and average fighters. kO ratio naturally goes down when you fight iron chinned elites or guys who knows how to survive at that level. Fact is, he wasn’t stopping any iron chinned elites. His best stoppage at 147 is Vargas. Pac stopped Oscar, you know that guy Tito couldn’t hurt. Old this and that but Oscar was 35 and took floyd to an sd. Pac showed it wasn’t a fluke when he hattoned Hatton and stopped cotto. Then after that tough guys fought to survive, guys like Mosley, clottey, Rios etc. And lol at rich history. Well that’s the point, duh. Great fighters like Chavez already proclaim Pac to be the greatest ever. Here’s more history for you. Oldest WW champ ever. Most weight divisions climbed and won championships in ever. It’s obvious he’s part of that history and sit atop of it. Anyways Pac loses every fantasy fight until they stop becoming a fantasy here. Pac lose to Thurman 5 years ago if the fight ever happened apparently. It’s a joke.
No one my ass. You mean you and your boys? Here’s some facts for you: 1) why deny him a pain killer shot? That’s a fact, he was denied. You don’t ask for pain killer shots on your shoulder if it’s not injured. 2) floyd was allowed painkillers for his hands. How hypocritical. 3) floyd was granted a TUE 21 days after the fight whereas Pac can’t get a painkiller shot? For clouds IV. 4) Pac has shoulder surgery after the fight. That’s not fake. That’s not up for debate. That’s not even a discussion. It’s a fact. You don’t get surgery on your shoulder when it’s not injured. You lose credibility when you fail to acknowledge facts.
