pacquiao vs sugar ray robinson welterweight

Pacquaio KO 1, too much speed and class

 

I knew it was only a matter of time before this one surfaced. Needless to say, I don't pick Manny to win.

 

You could make the case that Robinson never quite fought a man like Pacquiao, but Pacquiao has never quite fought a man like Robinson either. Considering that Robinson had the power to knock out middleweights, and Pacquiao is not all too difficult to find, among other things, one has to favour Robinson to knock Pacquiao out, or atleast discourage him from fighting his usual whirlwind style. Robinson was no Margarito, that is for certain.

 

How can you even mention someobdy as primitive as Robinson in the same breath as Pacquiao?

 

Perhaps the thread starter is actually talking about this man:

In reality, it would be no shame at all but Pacquiao would get the life beaten out of him.

No disrespect to Manny, but he gets slayed where he stands.

 

Robinson by decision.

 

Robinson by Ko in the 8th round, in a war.

 

People assume that Robinson beats everyone easily, but he didn't in his own time even at Welterweight. Like everyone else I go with Sugar but Pacquaio may cause him a few problems, although personally I think he may not match up well stylistically
