    That does say alot. But JMM was not the #2 P4P at the time.

    And it also leaves you wondering "if JMM had a bit better chin..."

      Yea, exactly. Without those knockdowns, who would have won both fights???

          Whoa that was a brutal KO.

          I can see the Hatton/Pac fight going this way but with Pac being KO'd in the fourth or fifth.

            I don't necessarily believe in all those triangular and/or common opponent theories. But people were listing Larios as a top opponent.

            Larios got blown out by a bantamweight, and he went the distance with Pac. Pac also went the distance with a shot Barrera.

            I love me some Pac. Love the guy. But people are overblowing his resume. Mostly based on Diaz/Delahoya.

            If you ask me Casamayor/J.Diaz >> D.Diaz/Delahoya

              I think this fight will go in a similar way to the Hatton/Malignaggi fight, in that Hatton will start slowly before adapting to the speed and imposing his strength. Pac is waaayy better than Malignaggi and will land more solid shots, more frequently no doubt, but I think he will be deterred in a similar vein to Malignaggi. The difference will be when Hatton lands a big shot like he did against Paulie, Manny is gonna go down and not cling onto Hattons legs..
              yeah malliaggis got alot better chin than manny from what ive seen

                  try to learn more boxing, knockdowns are part of the whole fight, you can't separate them and you can't do a what if and still judge the same fight w/o bias. you look like a fool for saying what you just said.

                      QUISQUEYA asked, what would have happened in those fights if JMM had a better chin. I agreed and said without those knockdowns, JMM would have won.

                      Yes knockdowns are part of the fight and did happen, but we were talking hypothetically. So if you were capable of doing so, you would have to imagine the fights without the knockdowns. JMM won more rounds and so would have won.

                      I know that didn't happen. I know they are part of the fight. But it is possible to imagine something.
