    Im going to jump the gun and stop potential pac v tyson threads by stating that at 147 pac is getting trounced by many greats.
    Great p4p though manny is and his feats are those of legend and almost without parallell,but he is getting lamped by hearns at 147,ditto leonard,duran,robinson etc....
    So lets appreciate pac and nip things in the bud and not compare pac with atgs at 147 or over.....

    Yes, Hearns is far too big and far too strong. Pac would get knocked the **** out. Williams would do him over at WW, too.

    Not even in the main forum would Pac have a chance (except for a select few)

    Hearns would win that fight easily. The straight right would land on Pacman often and Pac would be knocked out in about 2 rounds.

    Hearns didn't exactly have a great chin though, did he? Plus, look at how Hagler was able to beat Hearns by using a southpaw stance and a lot of pressure. Let's also not forget that we haven't seen all there is to see of Pacquiao at 147.

    Yes.

    Pacquiao made Hatton miss by the tiniest amount and then crucified him with horrible flash counter shots carrying full propulsion. I pick Hearns. You guys might get a surprsie though.

    The thread was made as 'rhethoric' to show the limits of the 'pac love',however,it seems some cant appreaciate this.....

    Whilst i agree with the original post(even though there was no need to state it as it's ****ing obvious), i don't think theres fighter who is more underrated as a H2H fighter than Pac. According to a great number of posters on here he gets annihilated by the top 10 all time fighters from fly right through to light welter :nono

    Hagler had to take a monster barrage of shots to get to Hearns. That first right hand he took had so much force behind it he nearly toppled sideways. Pacquaio just could not stand up to those shots.
