Pacman vs Ray Leonard at 147

you funny man.

 

Hey Longhorn, good to see you back.

 

Ray Leonard had faster hands than Manny...more power than Manny...and he was bigger than Manny...what do you think happens?

 

And Duran is whole nother beast than Manny.
I see a Leonard victory around the 7th or 8th.

 

As for the fight between Leonard and Pac,...
Busy fighters who are shorter and that unleash rapid fire combinations, sharp blows seem to trouble Sugar. I'm sure Dundee would tell him what to look out for and devise a more cautious approach, trying his luck from long range (stick and move) looking for a points win. Any mistakes, if he gets caught at the end of a shot in the middle of a rumble, Sugar will find himself in trouble

 

Leonard can out-box him. But it's not as easy as many may project.

 

Yes it is

 

He can also knock him out.
I'd lean more on that.

 

I only thought I'd see people entertaining the idea of Manny beating Leonard at 147 on the General. Spellbinding. Pacquiao getting inside on Leonard and swelling his eyes up? Leonard can knock you out with his right or his left, and he had slightly faster hands than Manny...I'd be over early. Cotto is no Leonard.

 

At 147, Manny ain't no Wilfred Benitez...at 147, he ain't no Thomas Hearns...and he sure as **** ain't no Marvin Hagler, all fighters that lost to the great Ray Leonard, as you know. Perhaps you can educate the rest of us and tell us how you think Pacquiao could win the fight? He throws those wide flurries against Leonard, sure, some are going to land, but he'll be countered just as he did early against Cotto, only Leonard had legitimate knockout power in either hand. Pacquiao gets outboxed if he tries to work behind a jab, and he gets knocked out if he tries to engage Ray. Too big, too fast, hits hard...and is just too good.

But as I say, if you do indeed think Manny has a chance...how?
