Pacquiao HAS to be top 5 ATG

[Biolink]

Pac is giving up 17 pounds, 4.5 inches in height and 6 inches in reach and this is like a man and a boy.....Top 15.

Pacquiao gave up a half inch in reach... Comparatively speaking he has longer arms than Margarito

[-EX-]

Margarito is probably garbage now for sure as far as being a serious contender. But he wasn't garbage when he challenged Mayweather to fight him; that was before the KO losses to Mosley, Martinez and Pacquiao... Mayweather didn't want to fight him before he was garbage. When is Mayweather going to fight someone significantly larger than him who is still in his prime? The De La Hoya fight was years ago and since then Pacquiao has definitely taken over and has had the better career. The only potential fights that most people will give Mayweather credit for at this point would be the winner of Martinez/Williams II or Pacquiao.

Pacquiao certainly has a better resume than Floyd(who has done little in the last few yrs) but what happened tonight didn't affect my thoughts on a fight between them...I was never impressed with Margarito...

Imagine what will happen if Pacquiao fights the winner of Martinez/Williams II next and prevails in that fight? His overall career resume is already better than Mayweather's. If he were to beat Martinez or Williams next it would be extremely impressive. How is Mayweather going to top that?

hes been fighting easy competition. Trinidad would knocked Pac into next week.

Yeah, I'm not saying I think Pacquiao would destroy Mayweather. But he does have a style that would give Floyd more problems than anyone he's ever faced. It would be a great fight. I'm not sure if it's going to happen though. Mayweather has a lot of problems in his personal life right now.

Trinidad? really? He's not exactly known for his ability to cope with speed, or combination punchers for that matter. Pacquiao has all that, and hes a lefty. Prime Trinidad definitely gives more problems than Margarito did tonight, but I would still pick the Pac that fought De la Hoya to prevail over Trinidad at welter

Yeah I agree...the main problem is the southpaw stance and Pac's footspeed is superior than Floyd's(which won't allow Floyd to dance out of harm's way)...

Floyd would be in for a hell of a fight...Pac isn't really a thinking fighter IMO, he's gonna throw everything he's got at Floyd...its instinct for him...

I hope it happens tho...if it does, probably not til late 2011...Floyd's talkin about marriage and has legal problems...

You obviously don't know Jack about boxing history.

Get the fuck off this site and never come back.

If you believe Manny is going to fight Sergio or Paul, then I have some under water beach front property to sell you. What is so impressive about fighting Margarito? Seriously. Margarito has not been relevant for years.
