      If Pacquiao could do what Floyd does he would surely do it. Nobody wants to get hit in the ring if they can help it, difference is Floyd can avoid punches and some others can as well.

        or in stature? to fight hatton again or to fight midget manny?

          After seeing how out of it DLH was...your gonna buy that ****? When EVERYONE agreed that anyone would have beaten DLH that night...be serious. I ain't gonna say Pac ducked so and so cuz Pac isn't afraid to fight anyone but don't make it sound like Nate wasn't worth it when dude has 3 belts at 135

              Yes but Roach chose Oscar over Soto, trust me it was for more money and style matchup, Soto would give Manny all types of problems.

                IF Pac retires after Hatton and gets no stick it would be an F'N Travesty. I was pissed at Floyd for ducking Cotto ( He never ducked Margo, he fought Baldo instead for the same amount of money and the linear championship) and i would be just as pissed if Pac did'nt fight the top guy at LW , I like both fighters but if the fight goes down i want Floyd to put on a clinic because if Floyd lost their would be threads reading "FLOYD WAS EXPOSED OMG " despite him going through 5 divisions undefeated while if Manny lost some excuse would be made because Manny is that popular. I've officially nailed my colours to the mast

                    Pacquiao was a midget and the fight was labeled as a circus act. Not only he was a huge underdog, Ring Magazine named it the Upset of the year.

                    Pacquiao moving up multiple divisions from 130 to 147 in 9 months > Fighting Campbell.

                    You're gonna compare how Cotto was the bedt Welterweight when Floyd chicken out.
