    Not really because good counter-punching is actually a huge key for beating Pac as we've seen him go life and death with the only good counter-puncher he's faced in his whole career in JMM its importance can't be overlooked in this fight. Not only that you add Pea's ATG jab that he could land at will against Pac who isn't easy to find he would dictate the fight with that. I'm sorry I put my money on Pea he's more complete and beaten more styles than Pac has. Hell we don't even know what Pac looks like against a slick fighter because he's never fought one.

    Don't act as if it's not important. Styles make fights and historically slick defensive counter punchers eat fighters like Pac alive.:deal

    Totally agree. Nothing wrong with ranking Pac ahead of Pea, but Duran should be ahead of both.

    You do realize this was a past prime Pea don't you? And yet he still outlanded, dropped and clowned Oscar.:deal A prime Pea would have beaten Oscar rather easily.

    Where Pea's been caught, PAc's been down and counted out. That is the difference between the two.

    If PAc were out boxing guys, and not stopping them, but was still winning ala Pea, nobody would be ranking Pac insanely with legends while he's still fighting like some of these half wit critics who don't know **** about boxing but exciting ko's and crowd pleasing styles... The fact that Pea is retired, and PAc is still fighting, and we have people saying PAc beats Pea is unfathomable...

    I would pick Whitaker to win by a close UD, but it wouldn't be no cake walk for Pernell as some are trying to make it out to be, especially at 147.

    Manny Steward said it best during the Pac/JMM rematch when he said to paraphrase 'you're not just going to outbox Pacquiao without eventually having to fight him'. Could Pacquiao be outbox?...of course but you're going to have to fight his fight eventually cause Pacquiao forces one to do so, and Pernell doesn't have the power to keep Pac at bay for 12 whole rounds without getting hit himself.

    LukeO said it best when he said that Pernell has gotten tagged against very lesser fighters than Pacquiao, like Polo Diaz, Roger Mayweather, Jorge Paez etc... And Pernell could be knocked down due to some balance issues and we've seen Pac win decisions based off getting a knockdown over his opponent in a close fight.

    When a reasonable boxing fan has to argue with the thought pattern of a fan like this with a boxing opinion like this...I just keep it moving lol...

    You just said pacquiao hasn't faced a slick fighter. But there's a history of him losing to these fighters? Make up your mind. Plus, Marquez may have had success with him but the guy was also quite a bit willing to exchange with Pacquiao as well, same with Morales. You can't really run/sway/block away from a fighter like Pac for 12 rounds and win, he's too active for that. You don't know how he would fare against the type of boxer you're envisioning at all. Especially the current, more fundamentally developed Pacquiao.

    Yup.

    Yes it is because PAc is still boxing, and Pea is retired. What you just said disrespected many boxers in boxing history. I find it an insult that you think it's ok to think this way about fighters.

    I see how he went life and death with JMM twice and how lost he looked when Cotto used movement following him around, frustrated and I can draw my conclusion from that as to that he would have hell with a master boxer like Pea Whitaker. I don't need to see him with anyone because there's no one in boxing currently and that includes PBF that's as good as Pea Whitaker. Styles make fights my frined and Pea is all wrong for Pac period and even you know this.

    If you lived in the 50's, and Sugar Ray Robinson was about to finish up his middleweight era, then would you be okay with ranking him ahead of...Mickey Walker? I'm sure you would be. It's not disrespectful for me to think Manny Pacquiao has had an impressive career even up to now. Most people thought the guy had no chance at WW and he's been incredibly dominant in the division despite that, feared even. So there.

    Of course I know, *******. I resent your know it all tone, and your portrayal of Pea as some kind of unhittable ghost and of Pacquiao as a ****** with 0 boxing IQ/fundamentals. My only point to make is that Pacquiao would land on Whitaker, and probably land a lot more than you think. At 147, Pacquiao would have a very solid chance. That is all, and fairly reasonable i think.
