    Chavez by mid round t/ko at 135 and 130. Pacquaio by late round t/ko or clear decision at 140.

    No ONE KO Prime Chavez (84-92).... NO ONE

    Chavez was and still are the most dominant 140 champ EVER .. Pac has only one fight at the weight against a very limited Hatton, so, whats your point here?

    He's the same guy who thinks Floyd's win over Marquez makes him a lock for the P4P ATG top 10:lol:

    Manny has the handspeed, the quicker feet and overall athleticism on his side. Chavez has his chin at lightweight, his defense in the pocket, his infighting ability and being on of the best at cutting off the ring.

    Both can punch. Manny is the sharper and harder puncher of the two, but I think Chavez' chin is key here. Manny stuns his opponent in almost every bout he fights, but would he stun Chavez? Some. Not always. I'd say Chavez is a favorite to make it through the fight without being seriously stunned.

    I see Manny having success early on, Chavez as a more experienced ring general manouvring the fight to mostly take place at his range, in-fighting, taking advantage of the defensive flaws that will finally cost Manny.

    TKO11. Chavez takes advantage of an often out-of-position Manny with short combinations from close range. Chavez takes plenty of leather solely because of Manny's handspeed and explosive nature, but he remains steadfast and grinds his man down.
