    I can easily say that Hearns would easily beat him. Hearns could outbox him for 15 or KO him within 3. Don't think so? ask Duran

    Manny couldn't dart in and out when Hearns is throwing that jab out.

    Why do you think Mayweather wants no part of him ? because he can't train for Manny it is not what he does. The guy is going to land he is going to get the best of you every single time. He has yet to be hurt at WW and is a ****in zone none of us have witnessed another fighter in.

    Don't worry Floyd is going to fight him in the Fall :good
    They could have fought March 13 2010, but Manny didn't accept 14 day cutoff

    Somebody please show me video of a southpaw at WW that flattened somebody with a bow and arrow left cross counterpunch knockout (hatton) and also knocked down a WW with a blinding right hook ? When I see that I will know I am wrong. There is none. Never been a guy like this.
    Manny is a very important fighter. it is more his mind than his body. The laser accuracy and the winning exchanges is a craft he dedicated his life to.

    A Manny Pacqiuao was not supposed to happen. There is no text book for this. Why do you think Floyd says he will fight him when he gets off the power pellets ? He does not believe Manny's skills are real but enhanced with drugs.
    I can only form my opinion on common knowledge and since Manny is known as one of the hardest workers and has added new skills with Roach since 2000 I give him the benefit of the doubt. As I mentioned before it is more his mental makeup that is the propeller for his rise to greatness.

    also, it's one thing to say that pacquiao hasn't beaten anyone in their primes as he moved up in weight and that he hasn't fought elite level competition, but he has fought some very, very good fighters and has completely annihilated every single one of them. knocked out spectacularly, brutalized, and won almost every single round.

    who's to say that he won't do that to everyone he fights until he retires? we don't even know his potential yet as he's a completely different fighter than he was the last time he lost.

    i'm just stating facts. if you can tell me anything i've said isn't true, let me know.

    so you're saying he doesn't have great movement and that he does a damn good job of not getting hit? i think that's completely true.

    the top 10 slot is an opinion, but i'm pretty sure most experts and boxing historians have him right up there too.
