Pacquiao would have destroyed Salvador Sanchez

It's not a sin,but it is nonsense.Yes,intangibles are a *****.In reality,if you are going to compare the 19 year old Chava with the 23 year old one,go ahead.That just demonstrates your lack of knowledge.Fine.But Manny was ko'd twice,which is something that NEVER happened to Chava.NEVER.Manny(a fighter I've a ton of respect for)is a great fighter,but not perfect.And as YOU said,no fighter is.Consider this for a moment.Lopez and Nelson,2 ATG punchers at 126,couldn't put a dent in Chava's chin,as he proved how hard he was.But yet,according to your logic,Chava would lose to Manny at 126 because Manny's a southpaw.****,I would have loved to have seen this fellow Escobar against Little Red or Azumah.And as far as Manny's resume at 126,it's not as good as Chava's.Just as a reminder,Manny lost to MAB(another fighter I've nothing but respect and admiration for) at 126,so so much for perfection or imperfection(whatever).Now,most importantly as we are judging this one on intangibles.Chava had one of the highest boxing IQ's I've ever seen.Manny had loads of problems with counterpuncher JMM(a fighter who does NOTHING better than Chava did).At 126,Chava outpoints Manny based on all the evidence.And it's quite easy to see.

 

True!

 

Pacquiao would beat Sanchez worse than Barrera got it. Sanchez has a good win over gomez but Pacquiao just beat a better and bigger puerto rican in cotto.

 

Suck a mediocre "Pinoy" dick". :hi:

 

No thanks.

 

Hey GtSK I am sure we will never see you on this board again after Pac retires... Just like most of the *******s. Just a bunch of flash in the pan no nothing Pac fans.

 

Sorry,I mixed Mab up with Morales.Btw,**** paragraphs.And just what the hell did I exaggerate?Your complete opinion is based on ONE FIGHT AND ONE FIGHT ONLY.Are you completely joking?One fight.ONE.Think about it.You:Salvador Sanchez can't handle southpaws because he had trouble with Escobar.Therefore Manny Pacquiao would have "destroyed" Chava(your words).OK,my turn.Chava would have whooped Manny because despite being knocked down THREE TIMES in the 1st round,Marquez(a fighter that does nothing better than Chava did)came back,gave Manny hell and ARGUABLE WON.That's real evidence:an actual occurance.Manny has a ton of trouble with intelligent counterpunchers.Fact.Evidence.

 

No.1st off,Sal's better than MAB.And Miguel's my present fav,and I ****ing HATE Gomez.But,p4p,Gomez is definitely better than Cotto.AND Sal beat Gomez worse than Pac beat Cotto.Plus the Cotto that Manny beat was shopworn and had already been stopped.

 

of course he is going to improve in 2 years. you have to put the situation in its proper context. sal started his career at 16 after something ridiculous like 6 amateur fights, and took this loss after 3 years of learning. by his fifth year of learning and developing, he is ko world class fighters. by his 7th year of polishing, he had walked through hof fighters. he hadnt even reached his technical peak or physical prime yet. can you imagine a 28 yo sanchez after improving and perfecting his craft for 12 years?

 

That's what these guys aren't getting. They're comparing a polished welter Pac to one of the best featherweights of all time. Pacquaio was not the well rounded boxer/puncher he is now at the weight he would have faced Sanchez in. He was a great swarmer who struggled against boxers.

 

Good point, there are some Pacquiao critiques who told that Pacquio did not improve tremendously ,they argue that Pac did not face another great counter puncher like JMM that is why Pac is so impressive nowadays, so if that is the logic, then don't argue that after his fight against that southpaw, Sanchez have improved,or maybe it is just Sanchez did not face another southpaw again, but the fact is Sanchez struggled bad against a southpaw and that southpaw is not on the level of Pacquiao.

Looking that many fighters struggled against southpaw, Sanchez has struggled and look bad against a southpaw and Pacquiao is one of the best southpaw ever, I believe Pac has a good chance in this fight.
