Would Pac be able to KO/TKO a big WW like Clottey?

    ...or Magarito, Williams and Mosley?

    Mind you, I'm not asking for simply beating, as he should be able to easily outpoint the limited Clottey and Magarito...PWill and Shane being a different matter.

    I have never seen Clottey being seriously hurt in his career (that KD vs Cotto was more a balance thing), but could the accumulation of punches simply prove to be too much in the end, just like in the Oscar fight?

    So who of these fighters do you thing would PAc KO/TKO (and yes I know, KO and TKO can be completely different matters)?

    Williams is huge. That would be an interesting fight but I'd have to go with Williams. to win. I am not sure if he could KO Clottey, Sugar Shane he might stop Margarito.

    I'll go with Margarito on this one. If Shane can land all those clean shots against Margarito. Imagine what Manny could do.

    To give my input:
    1) He would have to fight differently vs PWill and take the Mayweather routine, therefore a stoppage seems very unlikely to me. I also don't consider PWill a ww anymore, I don't see any chance he can again make that weight.

    2)We might have to see how much Magarito has left after that Mosley onslaught. In those just 9 rounds he took enough punishment for 2-3 fights and before that he had a war with Cotto. For all we know, his punch resistancce might have greatly suffered. I would think Pac could get to him for a late round-TKO in DLH fashion. Against a primo Magarito...probably has to fight for a decision.

    3) Concerning Clottey: After all the damage Magarito has taken, he might be the 'biggest tank' left in the division. I don't think Cotto every hurt him and I also can't remeber Magarito getting him into trouble. Due to his lack of speed, Pac should be able to easily outpoint him, but I think he is next to un-outknockable

    4)Shane Mosley: I'm hesitant here for 1 reason: Shane's age. By the time this fight would happen, Shane would be almost 2 years older than in the Magarito fight and you can only beat father time that often. The SSM we know to this point has not only a great chin, but an ATG chin. So seeing him being KO'd should not happen, but if age really shows and Pac's speed overwhelms him, I could see a corner stoppage. The 2008 Mosley I think has more punching power that Pac, just as fast hands, a better chin, has enough mental strength for 10 men and would be the favorite for me, but I don't know about 2010 Shane...

    Clean KO Shane? Now that will not happen in our life time. We are talking about a guy who I have seen mildly hurt only 1-2 times in his career and the emphasis is on mildly.

    I think he's stop Mosley and Margarito.

    Both got great chins but they're also quite hittable....and with Mosley's age I've got to think the pace that Pac sets will cause him to ship even more shots.

    I think he's easily UD Clottey, and I don't think Williams is relevant anymore.
