    I'd laugh if he knocked Pac out. It'd be oddly gratifying.

        Pac's defense isn't great but it's solid. He has pretty good upper body movement and moves around the ring well obviously with his excellent foot speed, but he brings the heat more than most fighters and leaves himself more open as he's throwing shots. So he can be tagged. That said, so far more proven punchers than Berto couldn't hurt him, and Berto does not have a good enough chin or good enough defense to handle Pac's firepower. He would probably get stopped by the middle rounds if he and Pac squared off.

          Pac D is underrated, he is not defensive fighter and it is not great. But, people on here make it seem like his D is none existent....

                I'm not exactly Berto's biggest fan or anything, but this was a very honest interview. Pac don't really block anything he just uses his in-and-out movement so well and has great legs and energy. I personally think Pac would rip Berto's head off but we'll see.

                  Once Berto Fights Pac, he will become defensive..

                  If you don't want to get KO , Don't throw punches on Pac

                  No solid Welterweight would give challenge..

                  Clottey, Cotto or anyones else are lucky to win 1 single round.

                  I would prefer Pacquiao to gp back to 135 since No Welterweights can give him challenge basing on the facts
