    Who is a worse opponent for Pacquiao?

    I just read the thread BigPoppaPump posted showing the letter Nate Campbell sent to Manny Pacquiao and David Diaz.

    In the letter he pleaded with the winner of Pacquiao/Diaz to agree to fight the winner of Campbell/Guzman to unify all 4 belts of the major governing bodies.

    Who could possibly argue with that?

    My question is , as a Pacquiao fan , who would be a tougher matchup for Manny if/when he gets passed David? I think both present Manny with contrasting problems and neither would be an easy fight.

    Answer? Please explain.
    33
    Nate Campbell will be more difficult for Manny.

      Joan Guzman will be a difficult fighter for Pac. Against Soto, he fights like Mayweather.

        I think Campbell could be Manny's harder fight. Good chin, skills and very active.

            Hahahah. I thought it was a general qurestion, but Guzman has the most potential of beating him.

            Casamayor though makes Manny look bad win or lose.

              And a bigger punch, I'd bet money on a Nate Campbell knockout of Manny Pacquaio.

              Manny likes to fight and Nate would gladly trade punches. 135 is the weight where Manny bottoms out. He might get by David Diaz but I see a slew of other fighters at 135 that I believe hand Manny a loss.

              And on top of that, I think Guzman will beat Campbell but Nate is more dangerous for Manny than Juan. A matter of styles, baby, styles.

                Joan Guzman is a true featherweight. He hasnt gotten a KO in over 4 years and goes into retreat mode when hurt. Not only would pacman be bigger than him, but his hands are too fast to not land cleanly regardless of how slick Guzman is.

                Campbell however is a true lightweight and able to adapt between boxer/brawler mid fight

                So really its no contest

                  Yeah sure, his chin looked good against Juan Diaz. Manny has the power to take him out of there. I see Guzman out boxing Pac though.

                    They both provide a tough match up. I was leaning towards Guzman, but the more I think about it, it could probably be Campbell.
