Prime Pac vs Fab four- how many of the four could Pac have beaten?

Who would be the Fab 4 nowadays?

 

Canelo, lomanchenko, bud Crawford, ggg maybe? This is really open to debate. Or maybe Spence,Porter, Pacquiao and bud

 

****ing hell

Can we get him checked?

 

Not sure how Canelo is relevant to this thread, but okkkk....

 

It is strange how he manages to appear everywhere.

 

1. Hearns gives Pacquiao the Duran treatment; or in Pacquiao's case, the Marquez IV treatment
2. Leonard comprehensively outclasses Pacquiao and beats him up en route to a late round stoppage
3. Duran roughs Pacquiao up on the inside, wears him down with body shots, and gets the better of the battle at mid-range too with his right hand timing
4. Hagler is a ridiculous fight. It's like matching up Crawford with Monzon.

 

Pac is what, 5ft 5? Do you really think he's gonna reach, nevermind knock out a 6ft 1 guy with a 78 inch reach, with great footwork and a jab like Ali's? Not to mention one of the greatest right hands in boxing history.

WIth the Fab 4 you are talking about IMO the greatest lightweight ever, the 2nd and 3rd best welterweights ever (certainly H2H at least) and one of the greatest (if not the greatest) middleweights ever.

All 4 are naturally bigger than Pac and can box as well as punch. Duran would outslug him, and the other 3 would stop him, in the case of Hearns brutally so. Leonard had a great left hook - if he plants his feet and hits Pac flush it could be a one punch KO. Hearns would batter him to **** for about 2 rounds. Hagler would grind him down and stop him mid rounds.

This is not my rose-tinted nostalgia talking. It's common sense and objectivity.

Pac's a great fighter at the lighter weights but all these guys are too big, even Duran.

 

Leonard would abuse Pac, as would Hearns. Hearns would win by brutal KO probably. Hagler would grind him down with pressure and stop him. Duran and Pac would probably be a fun brawl, up to the point that Duran KO's him. Pac doesn't beat any of those guys. Duran would beat him at lightweight, and welter.

 

Keep peddling that lie. Pac doesn't have a mountain of circumstantial evidence pointing to PED use like Morales, Marquez, and Mayweather. That's just a fact.

Another fact — Carnelo Alvaroids failed 2 drug tests and even withdrew from VADA testing.

 

On the flip side of the coin, how would Mayweather deal with these cats?

 

Well lets see:

-Pac's head has grown two-three times the size it used to be, so far
-Pac has not lost much speed or power as he climbed through the divisions
*Pac refused random testing, and blood testing leading up to his fights*
-Pac's team accused JMM of juicing, JMM responded with "I'll take any test they take", and Pac's team went complete silent on the topic
-Freddie Roach, Pac's very own coach insinuated that Ariza was giving Pacquiao something illegal when he said "Ariza gives Pacquiao his special shakes"... I don't think he was referring to sperm, but you never know I guess.
-Pac continues to perform at very high levels, and also continues to have dodgy drug testing.. The Thurman fight most recently.


No, nothing to see here, move along LOL

 

Pac is a drug cheat himself...

 

Move on with this fantasy match up. All are just opinion. Pacquiao in his prime fought champion after champion and smoke them one by one.
Starting with morales 2 , marques 2, went up to fight david diaz, fought oscar at WW,then ricky hatton, miguel cotto,clottey,margarito.
Who can match that In todays boxing?nobody is gonna beat that even loma cant do it who is a great boxer himself.
