    If you have poor defense, then yes Pac will tear you up, but Clottey (although he fought to survive) emerged just fine, and actually landed more clean punches on Pac then were landed on him.

    But it all depends on if you want to fight a buzzsaw, or a guy who going to place precision shots upside your head all night. Either way, you pride and your dome aren't going to be feeling to good.

    JMM, Erik Morales and co have proven he's a beatable fighter and what's more, a fighter you can dominate with pure boxing. JMM was so unlucky not to get that decision and yet we saw what happened when he stepped up against Mayweather.

    I think Pacquaio represents a winnable fight for anyone with a good chin and boxing acumen. I think Floyd represents an impossible fight for anyone who isn't at the top of their game and a complete elite fighter.

    Neither. I'm 6'1 220 and own a pistol grip shotgun. Those guys are about a buck and change! Lol.
    Really though as a fighter I fear the ass kicking of a mayweather over a possible lights out of pacman. I can deal with being earthed by extra ordinary power because there's really nothing you can do. But to be totaly dominated and outclassed undermines all professional expectations and preperations. Mosely miight as well have just been getting ***** and drinking black label seeing that he was utterly shoutdown.

    I think Manny Pacquiao also represents an impossible fight for anyone who isn't at the top of their game and a complete elite fighter. :huh

    By the way, who dominated Pacquiao with pure boxing? Marquez was knocked down three times, and received a draw. In the rematch, it was nip and tuck, both fighters hurt, only Marquez down, and Pacquiao came away with a close victory. Erik Morales won by about 2 rounds when those fought in 2005, the loss was avenged twice by stoppage. So, who dominated Manny Pacquiao?

    This is like picking between a fast acting poison or a slow acting one. Either way you still get killed.

    Pacquiao. Floyd would embarass and humiliate you in the ring like he does to everyone else, but Pac's workrate and offense brings a lot of pressure, **** probably looks scary up close and personal.

    :lol: Smart boxers with good chins have gone up against him in the last ten years and gotten their **** severely rocked. If "anyone" means Floyd Mayweather Jr. then yes, it is a winnable fight.

    Pacquiao no doubt. What he did to Hatton was scary. I'd rather get schooled by a defensive master than suffer the kind of embarrassment Hatton went through, everyone labelling him a bum after the fight.

    "Scary" is the word. It was exactly that.

    I've never been chilled by seeing Floyd dissect his opposition.
