Prime Haney vs Prime Pacquiao at @140

[ijudge]

Yo, I gotta disagree on that one. Saying the 140-pound Pacquiao would take down Haney, Tank, and Crawford in one night? That's reaching, man. Each of those fighters got their own game, their own strengths. Comparing them like that just ain't right; it's a whole different ball game.

140 pacquiao > 140 haney against prograis
140 pacquiao > 140 tank against barrios
140 pacquiao > 140 crawford against postol

Yo, I hear you, but I gotta disagree. Just 'cause Pac's footwork ain't like Prograis', don't mean he'd automatically have more chances against Haney. Styles and game plans in the ring, they're a whole different ball game, you feel me?

It’s a popularity game. I’ve been in boxing forums for a long long time and I can recall fans (Pac fans) clamour how he was going to KO Marquez in the last fight (despite having trouble with him every single fight and running into the same right hand) and clamour how Manny was going to put Floyd to sleep. They see what they want to see, not reality.

You must be forgetting Pacquiao won a MD against Marquez at 140, in a fight ALOT of people had him losing. So not sure where that opinion stems from…
Bud probably would’ve stopped or toyed with Marquez.

the thread asked for a prime pacquiao.

the prime pacquiao clearly ended after his fight with margarito.

those performances against mosley, marquez 3, bradley 1 and finally marquez 4. it was clear he was slowing down after margarito.

He didn’t look great in Marquez II either. There’s a blue-print to beat Manny and Marquez being a counter-puncher has always taken advantage of that.

Yo, Haney! Big ups on that unanimous win against Prograis! You're now the new WBC Super Lightweight champ of the world! That win? It's not just a win—it's making you a two-division world champ, man. Respect!

If Haney and Pacquiao ever threw down at 140 pounds, I'm betting Haney would straight-up school Pacquiao harder than Mayweather did, no doubt."

And here comes this ignorant sob with his usual “every fighter that ever won a big fight” would beat Pacquiao thread. This idiot claimed that both Brandon Figueroa and Luis Nery would beat Manny.

Pacquiao had a tough time with Horn, so it's like, can he really handle Haney?

Haha that's hilarious. Best post of the night.

If haney can become atleast a 5 division champion then we can think that he has a slight chance against the former straw weight boxer.

It was when the CWs stopped did the destroyer stop, and it returned to what he was prior to those couple of fights that shot him to stardom, the resume speaks if you look at the fine details.

I think Manny would beat Haney of today but I think Haney is getting better as he matures, just the style alone is big trouble for Manny and if Haney gets a chin and a bit more power Id pick him to beat Manny as a 28/30 yr old, Devin hasn't found is man strength so he hasn't reached his prime yet he is only just entering it.

Pacquiao had a tough time dealing with dudes like Ugas and Horn, who aren't exactly top dogs in the boxing game.

Manny was old enough to be their daddy. What are taking about.
