    If Pacquiao has bentt over backwards to avoide Mayweather, he'd do the same to avoide Robinson. If the fight did happen Robinson would win by late round stoppage.

    Robinson has everything needed to blast out PacMan early.

    This isn't as daft a comparison as it sounds imo.

    Pac has looked very good at welterweight dominating legitimate top ranked opposition.

    That being said, I believe robinson is h2h the greatest fighter in history. He has all the tools to take out anyman weighing 147

    Robinson is too boxistically complete and too gifted to lose.

    I'm assuming Pac would be up against a prime Robinson of course, not the washed up has been's he's been feasting on.

    Any way you slice it Manny would get blasted out. SRR has too much of everything.

    SRR by early KO.

    robinson too big and too good. pac is great but way too small for this matchup. robinson could win this fight with his jab alone. pac would have a better chance vs a younger robinson at 135.

    Pacquiao would put up a greater fight than people think, and he's not the type to really get bombed out at this point. When was the last time you saw him take a real down(mosley bull**** not counted). SRR took people the distance too. I'd predict SRR KO in late rounds probably with a big right hand Graziano style, but Pac could go the distance.

    I'm not saying that he bombs him out, I don't know if he even stops him, but what I can say I as good as do know is that this is a mismatch., whichever form the fight takes on, whether it goes to the cards or whatever, it is going to be a one sided fight the way I see it.

    uh, yeah. he'd have a better chance vs a smaller, less experienced robinson. is that too hard for you to understand?

    what kind of scope are we looking at it here? Please elaborate. Do you think he loses clearly to a 135 pound Robinson or not?
