Interesting point..
Consider though, Pac would go out to win or go out on his shield. Pac has a mountain of heart. A mountain range of heart. His heart is far greater than PW's.. its comes from a more disciplined place. He can and would dig deep and throw bombs of his own. Remember his assassination of Hatton? Now I'm not saying Hatton has Maravilla's chin, BUT, Hatton gave future HOF'er Kosta Tsyu all he can handle and more. And Kosta was an unusually heavy handed 140'er. Pac could possibly KO Maravilla if he sits down on his punches. Throwing at speed and angles to befuddle his opponent peppering him with power shots mixed in with stinging shots..until WHAM, he builds to a crescendo and sits on one.
Another thing to consider about a Pac-Martinez matchup... Pac has his movement. Movement far superior to PW's or Maravilla's. One thing I've noticed about Pac, the way he neutralizes some of the damage he can be recieving. He has an excellent sense of distance. He can hover right in the right place to execute a whirlwind attack, and also put himself out of danger just as quickly. But when he DOES get hit.. he's in the perfect distance to make the punch not have as much crack as it might have. Thats how he got passed some of the heavy hitters like Cotto with his hooks, and a war torn Margarito.
And Floyd's heart? Well its as our good friend ****m Richardson said.. with my own added twist: Floyd may be the worst human being in the world outside of the ring, though I would be inclined to say not quite.. But in the ring he is Floyd. He will struggle with just being defensive and adjusting in the first quarter of the fight to figure out Maravilla's movements and guage his deadly power... and that style, and his out of ring misadventures has him painted as this no heart cat. Well,,, Floyd aint gonna give up in the ring though. He would be pushed to his utmost limitation, but then he'd turn into a dragon.
