    PACMAN: The poor man's Duran

    I think these two have some similarities in how their boxing careers have evolved.


    Both started their careers at a much lower weightclass

    Duran when he was still Duran stopped at 160-168 when he started at 130lbs.

    Pacquiao appears to have filled out and suggest that the buck stops at 130lbs when he started at 108lbs.

    Duran's Notable fights...

    Duran vs. Leonard I - Duran wins a controversial slim margin

    Duran vs. Leonard II- Duran quits out of frustration w/ Leonard's
    style and speed.

    Duran vs. Hagler- Duran loses by a UD

    Duran vs. Hearns- Duran loses via k.o. in the early rounds

    Pac's Notable fights...

    PACQUAIO vs. MAB- tko's a legend

    PACMAN/PACAMAZING vs. Juan Manuel Marquez - Fight ends in a
    controversial
    draw!

    PAC-MAN vs. Erik I- Pac loses via UD

    PACAMANIAC vs. Erik II- Pacquiao brutalizes a legend

    Duran and PAC head to head obviously is not even up for debate and comparing PAC's famous opponents to Duran's rivals don't compare either.

    One thing that I would say PAC has over on Duran is that k.o. power!

    Stamina is about the same, both guys actually seem to get stronger as the fight goes into the championship rounds

    Championship heart- Even

    Overall boxing skills(Offense & Defense)- Hands down Duran

    Chin- Slight edge to Duran

    What about Barkley, Buchanan, Pipino Cuevas, and Esteban De Jesus?
    He beat these guys and Duran wasn't even in his prime.
    These guys were also famous opponents

        well, Duran ruled the lightweight division for what 8 years with a record of 71-1-0 which the loss was avenged.
        Beat the legend Sugar Ray Leonard, gave Hagler Hell (arguably the best middleweight of all time)...beat Davey Moore for the WBA lightmiddle weight title, beat Iran Barkley for the WBC middleweight championship at the age of 37.
        Now this is a guy who started out as a bantamweight...Manny and Duran dont even come close.
        Duran is one of the greatest P4P fighters in history, Manny has a long way to go.

          So, you're saying Manny Pacquiao is equally as good as Duran?

          Duran is the greatest lightweight of all time chief.

              Nope, in fact, I wasn't saying anything remotly close to that. I said that Duran isn't much better than pac, just because one thing isnt MUCH better than another, doesnt mean it isnt better.

              example:
              person a: ps3 will b completely own xbox 360
              person b: i dont think ps3 will b much better

                yeah.......

                Duran was a much better fighter than Pacquiao.

                  i guess we each have diffrent opinions on either:

                  1.what exactly what "much" means.
                  or
                  2.how good pac and duran are
