    Hmmm i can see where your coming from, apart of me thinks if they met, hagler would destroy him, but styles creates fights and i saw something in the SRL fight against hagler, which pacquiao couldve been able to expose with the help of roach! I would like hagler to win that one, but my mind goes with manny!

    Sorry to spoil the party lads, but I'm now onboard that he's fighting Rios. :lol: I think the express has gone up about 5000% since that fight was announced. :lol:

    Dont get it twisted, at 140/147 Pac-Duran would be a very close fight. Nothing suggest otherwise.

    Ali/Frazier I was an amazing fight, if only because for the first time, someone other than Ali in the ring had the element of surprise.

    You have a guy who moves his head for a change, and throws his punches with vicious intent like against SRL, Pacquiao wouldn't be made to look that good imo.

    You won't fully appreciate Pacquiao until he's been retired for a few years and we're all sure to miss him.

    I already miss Pacquiao, the one who fought Barrera, Morales.. hell, I even laid eyes on him first against Ledwaba, and was amazed. Ì won't miss this fabricated media clown who is fighting shot to **** Mosley and Zombierito.

    Of course its there, but 1 win doesnt make a fighter. Take away Douglas win over Tyson and he really isnt great, in fact he isnt great with our without that win.

    I just find that a lot of people overrated Duran due to that 1 win, where SRL made him quit in the rematch anyways.

    All those guys you listed I wouldn't rate above MAB/Morales/JMM. De Jesus is possibly amonst the same rank but I feel that Morales/MAB belong in the top 10 mexican fighters of all time, some even say top 5.

    49 Manny Pacquiao (18.63%)
    214 Roberto Duran (81.37%)

    Pac's fast feet and fast hands will attempt to replicate Duran-SRL 2 rather than Duran-SRL 1. Pac would make it a very difficult night for him.

    Duran >> Leonard >> Hagler >> Hearns >> Pacquiao >> Benitez

    However boxing success is not transferable, styles makes fights !
    I think pacquiao could have given hagler his run for his money, not duran, hearns or SRL though
