    Pac wasn't quite the same operator at 126 that he is today, and Little Red in his prime was a freaking beast. One thing there can be no debate about is somebody gets knocked the **** out! And I'm not saying "knocked out." I'm saying "knocked the **** out!":yep

    Hand's of stone would knock out Pacquiao, and I don't care about the hype with him being one of the greatest fighters ever he's still going to lose to Mayweather and I would not be shocked to see him get Knocked out!

    :lol: It's funny, you look at Little Lopez...and it's hard to believe them man was arguably the hardest hitting Featherweight of all time...he was certainly one of them. He could change a fight with a single shot, and Manny has never been elusive.

    Except that's not even remotely close to what actually happened. Duran won a hard fought decision against an SRL coming forward, trying to prove a point. He got humiliated by an SRL using movement, and crushed by Hearns and embarassed by Benitez. THAT'S what happened. And plenty of lesser fighters than Pac went to a decision against Duran even at lightweight.

    I swear, it's like you guys think Duran is Thor, The Thunder God or something.

    My father agrees and he is at least as big of fan of Lopez as you are Booradley, the only fighter ive seen my dad Idolize like if he was a kid himself. Lopez fought out of Alhambra,CA which is right next door to our hometown So he was always like a hometown hero to us. Manny might have had a big advantage in the speed department,but Lopez could Ko anyone(outside of Sanchez) if he hits you on the button Pac would be dust if Lopez got there. Where as Lopez would get up of the deck if Pac hit him.

    At lightweight, it gets even easier than at ww for Duran. He was domnant at lightweight, to me THAT was vintage Duran. And I think most people would agree that he definitley hit harder than Cotto. I just don`t see Pac being able to hurt Duran. And then it would come down to Duran forcing the fight inside, where NOBODY coud beat Duran... The fight with SRL wasn`t a blowout. However, it was a domnating performance.Does anyone here seriously think that Duran would back up and give ground like Cotto did??? I think people tend to foget that Pacman is hittable. And that Duran consistently putting his hands on Pacman would be a problem for Pac.

    I think Duran is a solid fellow to beat by Pac. Duran by a UD win.

    Its the likely scenario, Tyson-Douglas was a freak once in a blue moon upset, mythical fights usually have both at their best unless stated otherwise.

    The best Duran destroys any Pac. The end !

    So was Ray Leonard + had a size advantage, we know the story there.

    C`mon guys, you cant be serious here, you are pulling my dick, please tell me you have all PM`d each other & are doing this as some sort of weird little game or something.

    Manny would get brutalized in a primes 147 match vs Duran, its frustrating that some, if not all of you are not joking here, this is ****ed up.

    Im almost speechless :-(

    The main reason that Im against hidden polls, they serve no purpose whatsoever other than to side with your fav fighters whether you believe it or not.

    Hidden polls shouldnt even be an option IMO, every poll should be public.

    The last thing Steward and Sugar wanted to do is gas a modern fighter. They just dont wanna sound stupid when the proof is in their midst. Also Duran is a larger man than PAC I agree thats why its absurd to be even discussing this and PAc having a chance. Its a testament to PACs greatness.

    Pac is somneone you measure separately thru accomplishments..not necessarilu h2h because its impossible.. Heck had PAC not fought MAB everyone would have said here that MAB destroys PAC.

    You cant knock competition either, PAC fought 3 top 100 ATGs 7 times!!! You mentioned alot of great names but their careers didnt exactly overlap. I love Lopez but man he is a defenseless slugger at times. Sanchez struggled against his mandatories as well.

    I am giving credit where its due and boxing people gives Duran massive credit, as high as #5 ATG.. Its the fact when these same people are proclaiming PAc as above top 20 thats ESBers are forgetting to give due respect.
