    Harada! Pac never wins mythical fights.:-( Realistically, Harada would win easily from fly to superbantam but prime for prime at even weight Pac would kill him.:good

    Sweet Pea is right on here. Pac at the lower weights was NO WHERE near as good as got at FW and above. Pac is a freak of nature, and seems to be getting better technically as he moves up.

    Yet at the prime-Harada weight's, it'd be a very very very tough fight for Pac.

    he's spot on. no body is questioning that. but the thing is he is relying too much on skills. how many times pac defied skills. sasakul fight was meant to school pac. he amost did, but pac power made sasakul crawled like a snail when he got hit. how about barrera. fresh from his mastery of hamed, the technician was supposed to school raw pac. wrong again. pac made barrera amature. and what happened to the master jmm. very technical, geeh it was a see saw battle. harada is far superior skill wise, but as you know, that power shot thing it would be lights out for him.

    Are you crazy? this is a ATG fighter harada against a non-P4P ranked version of pacquaio. how about prime Harada vs. prime Pacquaio head to head like we have in PS dream fights

    Harada had an very good chin at these weights though...Better then Sasakul..He also took punches from guys who at the very least at bantam were bigger punchers then the flyweight version of Pac.

    Its to unfair to make a pick on one of these matchups on the slim chance Pac lands something lucky...He just wasnt as good as fighter back then as he is now.

    true, but do you think pac power is vastly underrated in here when he was fighting during his younger years? IMO i think it is.

    I dont think really...in fact relative to his overall ability back then it was the thing that sticks out the most for people and probably the only attribute he had you could say was truly world class. It was his power that won him the fight against Sasakul and nothing else..he was getting clearly getting handled in that fight up until then.

    He has always been a puncher with good handspeed and athletic ability...But its only recently he has become such a well polished and technical proficient boxer.
