Boxing fan ask Breadman "Would Pac beat Hearns, Leonard, Duran & Trinidad?"

[Bobby No Sex]

i am pacfan but i dont give a fawking shiet. it's a fantasy fight. it's just like how u live ur world right now that mayweather will defeat pacquiao. just a fantasy! if floyd beats pac then floyd is greater. so what?

all ur proof about people beating pac is the same thing u imagine floyd beating pac. it's all shoulda, coulda, woulda!

[brick wall]

it's actually a compliment for pac to match-up with those guys even in a fantasy fight. hearns and leonard both started their careers as welters, trinidad too i think...while duran was a lightweight. pac was a 108 lb'er and him fighting as a welter is already a stretch...he already outperformed his size.

in depth analysis right there.

No need to say more, boxing skills= what Pac has trouble with (see Morales 1 & both JMM fights)

All these guys were great body punchers as well.

What more analysis do you need?

Hearns is much taller, longer reach and had great power @147lbs. Manny wouldnt get inside and would get knocked out from a safe distance.

Leonard is faster, more power, more skill, better defense. He would light Pac up with combinations. JMM can easily land combos on Pac, Leonard is a far better combination puncher. He would shoot accurate shots right down the center.

Duran at Lightweight? I think he would have minimal early success landing because of his handspeed, but he would get stalked down and stopped:..Pacs one fight at lightweight was vs David Diaz. Duran is the greatest lightweight of all time.... Nuff said

Trinidad would KO him as well IMO, he was very accurate and his left hook couldnt miss. I think he would have his most success (meaning last longer & be more competitive) vs Tito but in the end he would get stopped.

IMO these particular fighters at these particular weights would be too much for Manny. Styles make fights.

I agree...this is not a knock on Manny...

i think you guys are forgetting what a monster Tito was at 147. i think he stops him in a tough fight but hed definitely turn his lights out.

Who's the Porkster in the pic in your sig?

[Nonitard]

Pac could have beaten Alexis Arguello and Aaron Pryor, but probably would lose to those guys because they are just bigger versions of himself

Arguello was hurt and knocked down by a guy named Andy Ganigan, on the Ring's 100 hardest punchers. Ganigan was crude as hell and similar to Pac, but Pac is far more advanced than he was technically

I agree...this is not a knock on Manny...

i also agree. no shame in losing fights to any of those guys. they could have been some amazing fights

Tito was dominant @147lbs..vicious power. One of my fav fighters of all time

[waxfondler]

• hearns TKO pac
• leonard schools pac... late KO
• trinidad SD over pac (i can see this as a toss up)
• duran MD over pac (i feel pac's movement & speed give him a chance)

IMO, nobody in this era can touch the fighters from that era.... NOBODY. the fighters mentality was COMPLETELY different. pac, floyd, sergio would have their hands full with that era.
