I can see Pacquiao smashing him. SRR had so many troubles with so many fighters. Pacquiao had troubles with Marquez, but with nobody else really so far. So SRR has troubles with lots of different styles (jabbers like Turpin e.g.), so I think the chance is pretty big that SRR has bigger problems with Pacquiao than the other way around.
of course we will never know. But if I see the southpaw stance of Pacquiao, his footwork, his power, his angles, his combos, his movement overall, I can see Pacquiao smashing him.

how can we compare??
There is not a lot of footage of Ray Robinson at welterweight, and the footage that is there is grainy.
We can't make a qualified decision on this matter because we haven't seen enough of Ray Robinson at welterweight.

When Robinson was Champ at welterweight he went years where he would fight 10 times a year... something unheard of with champions of today.
Robinsons combinations were deadly, he had a very strong stiff jab, an granite chin and all mixed with power speed and boxing iq. Unfortunately for pac, Robinson was far from an any individual he has ever fought.
