    Duran that fought Leonard in Montreal vs. Pacquiao that fought Oscar.

    And please no KO1 this would obviously be competitive.

    i got duran by ko. pac is prone to trading shots when he gets hit and duran would eat him up on the inside.

    but trading shots with PAC is not a good idea for any fighter

    it is if you are one of the best inside fighters of all time and atg top 10. only chance i see for pac is to fight in his in and out style for 12 rds... and hope he doesnt get lured into a counter.

    Depends on how Duran will be able to take shots that he won't see coming.
    Depends on how Pac will outmaneuver Duran who would probably understand that an inside fight whilst digging Pac's body will lead to an easy win.

    If Pac controls the distance and maintains his in and out movement like he did against ODLH he wins. If Duran gets careless Pac wins by KO.
    If Duran keeps the fight in short distance and keep on hitting Pac hard in the body, he wins a late TKO.

    Why 147? It should be at 140, a prime weight for each.

    Duran wins that. Easy.
    The toughest Pac I saw was against Cotto.

    Pacquiao almost took a knee from a body shot from Margarito imagine what Duran would do to him.

    Freddie Roach has gone on record saying he'd pick Duran to beat pacquiao if they ever fought.. Can't quite recall the interview though.
