        JMM is a great, great boxer, and i really dont think people can use that fight against Pac to judge accurately against SRR. People gave SRR all he could handle and they arent as good as Pac.

        Its that simple to make a comeback against people who use JMM giving Pac close fights. Pac has lost only once since pasteing Barrera. Thats an amazing run in anyones books.

          pac doesn't win fantasy fights, but he beats the ***** outta anyone who gets in the ring with him, that's all that matters.
          He wins fantasy fights against Hector Camacho and Floyd Mayweather SR when he was boxing.

              i don't really mind these fantasy fights favoring this boxer over pac. it's just opinion. it doens't mean **** to me. i won't lose sleep over it. if they get a kick out of it, let them. why i phuking don't understand is when they defend roadblocks after roadblocks. their idol wins in a fantasy fight, yet they don't want to see their dream turn into reality. they seem to be content in fantasy fights.

                The thing about it is, they keep saying that Pac would have moved up to middleweight to fight Sugar Ray Robinson, and they call or fantasy predictions ******...why in the HELL would Pac move up to middleweight and fight someone with 80+ wins like SRR, when he won't even move up to middleweight to make a fight that ACTUALLY could happen in real life, with Sergio Martinez

                  Manny Pacquiao versus Sugar Ray Robinson

                  Rafael

                  Rafael: Pacquiao is an all-time great, but Robinson is, by wide acclimation, the single greatest fighter in boxing history. Period. He was fast. He could punch with both hands. He had one of the best chins ever (he was stopped only once in 202 professional fights). At one point, Robinson was 128-1-2, with the lone defeat coming by decision to future Hall of Famer Jake LaMotta (whom he would ultimately go 5-1 against). And Robinson fought and beat numerous other Hall of Famers as well. It was only late in his career that he began losing more regularly.

                  Pacquiao has faced many top fighters, but not the all-time greats that Robinson did -- including LaMotta, Henry Armstrong (viewed by many as the second-best fighter of all time), Kid Gavilan and Carmen Basilio. Match a prime welterweight Robinson with Pacquiao at his best at welterweight, and I have to go with Robinson by a mid-rounds knockout. He just had too much of everything. Pacquiao is great. Robinson was the greatest.

                  Mulvaney

                  Mulvaney: Seriously? Robinson was the greatest welterweight -- probably the greatest boxer -- who ever lived. Pacquiao, fabulous as he has been, has fought at welterweight or higher just four times in his career; only two dozen of Robinson's 200 fights were below that weight class. This was a man who lost just one of his first 123 contests, and at 147 pounds he was close to fistic perfection.

                  Too tall, too fast, too strong, too skilled, too slick on his feet. Robinson spears Pacquiao all night long before dropping and stopping him in the middle rounds.

                  Tessitore

                  Tessitore: Sugar Ray Robinson would box Manny Pacquiao all night long. He would counterpunch with ease. He'd be able to match speed and would have an edge in size. Manny would fall short and lunge for Sugar Ray, who would pick him off. I like Robinson by unanimous decision.

                  Kenny

                  Kenny: Let's just take Robinson out of the equation. At welterweight, he has no peer -- no, not even Pacqauio.

                  So would Khan and Mayweather...what's your point?

                    So if you *******s are so sure that Pac would have moved up to middleweight to beat a Prime Roy Jones or to beat Sugar Ray Robinson, well why not move up to middleweight to fight SERGIO MARTINEZ???

                    LOL, I forgot, you guys say Martinez is too fast and big, unlike Margarito who was slow and a bit smaller than Martinez.
