    Go
    Gotta disagree with you there. I think the force of TH's punch would put MP on his back.

    Only an absolute spastic would pick Manny to have any chance in this fight. There are possibly 2 fighters in history that can beat Tommy at 147. Ray was never beating him again imo. Immediate rematch and Hearns would have outpointed him. He did win the rematch years later

    Lol at thinking manny has a shot. P4p he may be greater, but he would be killed in a round or 2. Pacquiao couldn't beat any of the fab 4.

    and the point of my reply was that if they were the same size Pacquiao would win because he is the superior fighter, so i have no idea what you are waffling about.

    Fair enough.

    However if Pac was 6ft 1inch his attributes would be different. his explosive dynamics come from being compact.

    Also your entitled to think Pac is superior to Hearns but I respectfully disagree. It's not that easy to compare fighters who are so different. Unless you just love Pac and therefore ignore all other considerations.

    There both ATG.

    Bro youre constantly on this forum. What do you do at your "Job", that you have so much time to be on here? Im just curious, because i look at your post history and theres only 6 hours that youre off at a time, so that means youre on this site 18 hours a day man.. geez

    I'm self employed working from home. I'm not always on here I have two laptops one for work and one for this and you tube whilst I work.

    This laptop is on all day during the week and a lot of the weekend so it might look that I'm always on but Im actually multi tasking and doing other things.

    I normally listen to music or a podcast on you tube whilst I work just so I have some background noise.

    Does me being on here upset you in any way?

    Tommy gets revenge for Ricky and redeems the Hitman name.

    Not at all but i was just curious as to why youre on here all the time. I never seen you post on here until a few weeks ago, thats why i asked. Youre a member since 2012, so you must have took some time off from here i reckon.

    Yeah that's correct I hadn't been on for a good while just because of constant spamming of Floyd an Pac fans back in the day also just because of my work I was constantly away all the time and then looking after family for the last couple of years.

    I'm a fan of boxing and not a fanboy so just found it too annoying and stopped using the forum for a good while.

    I've also been renovating a house the last year and finished my home office recently which explains my recent activity.

    I'Im on my own at the moment and I'm on the other side of the country to where I lived for many years as my other place is currently rented out whilst I finish off here.

    I don't do other social media so it's just keeping communication in something I'm interested in. That and it appears the forum has settled down somewhat with trolling and constant spamming.

    Not only is the size difference immense but Pacs style and skills is exactly what Hearns would want from a top opponent.

    Its easy to pick Hearns over everyone at 147. However, he didnt leave the division unbeaten.
