    I like the points you're making. But, at the same time Pac would have to get in his range to hit P-Will can be 6 feet away and still touch Pac. Manny would have to get inside that.

      And, on the real I think P-Will has more experience against southpaws then Pac has.

      When was the last time Pac fought a southpaw fighter?
      I swear I knew that you would say that about why wouldnt Pac struggle also. Seriously though, that **** is true. I use to say that I bet Williams could fight Cotto, Margarito, and Quintana a 100 times each and I bet he loses to Quintana more times than he loses to the other 2 even though they are clearly better, just because of that Southpaw style.

      I did use to make that argument that maybe Pac would struggle with a Zab or something because of the Southpaw style but his fans said he's killed all the Southpaws he's faced. Off the dome I just know of Diaz but Im not sure. I am sure that Paul doesnt exactly look like a world beater against them so to me that gives Pac a chance because I do think he's capable of doing some of the things that Carlos did

        Did you just make this up?

        But I digress from what Range would all this occur?

          When does Paul fight 6 feet away from his opponent? He tried it against Cintron and was missing horribly. Only started becoming effective when he walked him down. Hes not a Vernon Forrest type fighter that will commit to a jab and fight tall.

            That is spot on. The casual fans would look at the fight as a freak show and even the writers wouldnt give Paul credit. But if Pac won hes a giant slayer.

              Did you watch the Margarito fight? He outboxed him most of the fight.

              What he did against Cintron is NOT how he fought Margarito. Paul didnt WAIT he attacked and still was boxing aginst.

              Vs. Cintron he just waited and countered.

              Against Marg he kept his distance and just peppered him with jabs and right hands.

                Margarito is not Pacquiao. But you knew that.

                Also I did see the fight and saw Williams eating leather for most of the second half of it too.

                  But Cintron has the reach where he could be in a range where P-Will could miss and Cintron could counter.

                  Would you agree that Cintron is taller and has a longer reach then Pac.

                  My point is what range do you expect Pac to be to put on a boxing clinic?

                    You missed the point I was making.

                    Pac is not a 5-11, 74 inch Cintron.
