Naseem Hamed vs Manny Pacquiao who wins?

[mojack]

There have been a couple of Floyd vs Hamed threads in the past which Floyd has closely won, and the majority on here feel Mayweather beats Pac so how about Pacman vs The Prince?

At a weight of lets say..... 126, who would have won this if they both met at their peaks?

Discuss.

with Pac on or off steriods?

on roids if you can prove it..............

[J.Dempsey]

PAC on points, he'd was too bendy n all over the place to KO, mayb knock down a couple times..
Hamed wud b in there with chance to one punch KO tho...

depends, if its manny WHEN he was at 126, i think Hamed can beat him..

but if he is as intelligent as he is now, but at 126, manny and quite easily

manny was a damn good fighter at 126 but he wasnt the manny he is today... he's developed a good bit since then as well

[The Guru_]

The Guru likes Hamed over a not peaked yet Manny at 126. Prime for Prime Manny wins.

a think it would be a see saw battle with hameds power proving to be the main factor hameds chin was ok even though he got dropped good few times,cant recall ever seeing him hurt

[lesterprettyboy]

Guys, remember that at 126, PAC already had Roach. All the KDs PAC had was when before he had his sage mentor.

With Roach devising the plan, and PAC doing his thing, I don't see Hamed surviving the onslaught. Like what many people said, Hamed is overrated. The 1st legend he met, he crumbled...on the contrary, PAC eats other legends for breakfast...Lol

pacs lost under roach

Hussein DID HURT MANNY W/ JAB!!!

Pacquiao would get sparked out inside of four rounds.Pacquiao was and still is a one dimensional fighter who has speed and nothing else.Pacquiao never had a great chin and the moment Hamed's left hand connects with that fat head,Pacquiao will either drop like a sack of crap,or he will retreat and run like he did against Singsurat







Hussein dropped and hurt Pacquiao with a jab.

I saw it on youtube and I had to rewind it several times beacuse I just couldn't believe it was a JAB which hurt him so much but it was indeed a jab. That Pinoy referee really saved Pacquaio's ass that night, another ref say a ******/arab may have stopped it and with justification.

Think about how hurt Mosley was in his first fight with Forrest and how the ref saved his ass; well Pacquiao wasn't hurt quite that badly but a different ref could have stopped it. This bout is definitely worth looking up on Youtube because it probably would have been stopped by if the roles were reversed just like Mosely v. Forrest would have been stopped late in the second round if Vernon were the #1 P4P boxer & HBO house fighter that January night at MSG.

Now as for Hamed v. Pacquiao. I have no question that Roach has developed Pac-man FAR BETTER than Steward developed Naz. Steward cornered several of Naz's fights prior to the ass whuppin he received from MAB and Naz never really seemed to adapt to Steward's coaching. He was still struggling with people like Augie Sanchez long after Steward had taken Naz to the Kronk gym; he seemed to struggle in all every fight which had with Steward except for that bout versus that South African titleholder VB.

Roach on the other hand has developed Pac by leaps and bound it seems; granted they have worked together for more than 4 fights like Steward had to develop Naz before he lost he featherweight title to MAB. How is Naz going to deal with the constant pressure of Pac? Remember Naz was only 5'3 so Pac would actuallly be 3.5 inches taller in this bout. Naz didn't like to throw combos, he just never seemed to throw more than one or two punches at a time - Pac, under Roach, has been known to blitz opponents under a maelstrom of combos to the head and body.

I just cannot see Steward, despite his coaching savvy, getting Naz to overcome the boxing skills and tactics which Roach instilled in Pac at featherweight; Naz never really seemed to listen to what Steward would tell him anyway - he would always go out there with his hands at his side and paw with his jab while looking for openings to pot shot or counterpunch. Naz never threw combos, ever. His opportunities would simply be too far and too few against the lightning fast combos of Pac-man's offense, though he was not yet a polished product at 126 he was lightyears advanced in his boxing accumen under Freddie Roach when compared to the relationship that Nassem Hamed and Emmanuel Steward had over thier four fights together prior to his loss to MAB
