    Pac has a chance on pts but no chance of a stoppage/ko win (lol @ poll)

    Naz has a chance on pts and by stoppage win


    Have to favour Naz though, don't think Pac could take those shots for 12 rds and as already pointed out, he ain't got a hope in hell of getting a stoppage win of any sort (again lol @ poll... ******* cuckoo land)

    Tough one to call. Both had KO power and were extremely quick at the weight.

    Naz points. I guess I am one of only 3... Hmm... I believe both of their chins would hold up. Great and close fight this would've been.

    If it's the Naz who showed up to training camp and on fight night with Barrera he just might get KTFO.

    Went for Naz.

    Could've went either way though.

    Wouldn've been epic.

    Technically they are about as good so i don't see either dominating and out boxing one another. Barrera beat naz by being technically very sound and not taking any risks. Pac's was cruder back then, his style is not as sound as barreras hence i give naz a big chance of putting him away, the same chance pac has of stopping naz... Great fight

    I'd undoubtedly favour Pacquiao (even if I am a massive Hamed fan)...he is simply proven at a higher level.

    Styles-wise though, Pacquiao could walk on to something.

    Always has been a very good fantasy bout this.

    What makes you think Prince Naseem can kick it with any elite fighter? Highly overrated imo.

    I got Manny winning this by KO.

    NAZ would probably get the beating of his life though. Smile off his face his eyes lighting up every punch thrown ny

    Congressman Emmanuel. Dipidran. Pacquiao.

    Pacquiao might have to get off the canvas early, but he proceed to put on a beating on Hamed and stop him around the 9th.

    Styles favour Nas in this fight imo

    Pac will never be a disciplined technician, relentlessly marching forward against an unorthodox counter-puncher with elite power wouldnt be a winning strategy. Pac has physical advantages, a solid chin & enormous stamina but I think the Prince would win this at 126lbs.

    Nas on points
