Pacman has now come into his own now at the "heavier weights". What would have happened if he had duked it out with Roberto Duran at 135 lbs?
i think pac man wouldent be strong enough, duran was a natural lightweight. i think pac started of at flyweight?! i think dejesus and buchanon would be to big for pac too.
At first I thought this thread was one of those general boxing pac haters spreading their propaganda into the classic section, but it sounds like a legitimate thread. But yeah...Duran by TKO
Duran would win easier than many would expect, although it would be an awesome fight, while it lasted.
It would be a one-sided beatdown with Pacquiao's style playing directly into the far more skilled Duran's hands.
I like Pacquiao WAY too much to actually explain in details the manslaughter that would happen to him in this fight.
Duran being the more skilled complete fighters wins a 10-5 type decision with Pacquaio having his moments, you don't walk through a Pacquaio who has blistering 1-2s, fast feet and hands and fast counters when he was caught, and as for the size a 130lb Pacquaio with a day before weigh in weighed 144lbs, making size irrelevant
