Man if this match up ever happened I would take all of your money! I am putting my cash on Mayorga. Size is terribly important in boxing. While Pacquiao is a way better fighter than Mayorga in relative terms, in absolute terms Mayorga is too big and would impose his will. This is a fact that a lot of great fighters have had to come to terms with the hard way over the years...ask Bob Foster, Ray Robinson, and even recently Ricky Hatton.
Pac may come in near 147, but that's when fully hydrated. Basically water takes him from 130 to that weight. That's not the same as someone who weighs 147 and is solid. The more you post, the less I think you know about boxing. I mean, really, so much of what you say just makes no sense at all. Mind boggling...:huh
Mayorga walked through so many clean punches from Trinidad, who hits way harder than Pac. There is no way in hell Pac KO's him, I cant believe anyone would say that.
I think Mayorga could walk round with his chin in the air for 11 rounds taking unanswered punches for **** and giggles and still KO Pac in the 12th. Worst topic ever.
Mayorga would probably end pac's career or seriously hurt him. Pac is a beast at his weight but welterweight is a whole different story. I think people forget how much power mayorga packs and how solid his chin is.
You guys are overrating size too much. Who would have thought a LW Duran would be able to stand toe to toe with Hagler or atleast take his shots? Or who would have thought hed KD and beat Barkley? Back when pac was 106 or 122, who would have thought he would be favourite to beat all the LW's one day? Ive sparred with WW's and LW's, the power difference is not that big and if those LW's put on the weightm they would hit even harder. Mosley jumped up from 135 to 147 without probs, sure you can say Mosley is naturally bigger but Pac is now 135. Also I see alot of ridiculous replies here, Pac KO Pavlik, PBF Wlad etc...ask anyone here and they would deny that accusation. Putting words into other peoples mouth to make your argument sound better looks weak.
