Who Wins: Manny Pacquiao vs. Sugar Ray Robinson at 147 Lbs in a 12 Round Bout

[JustinFloyd]

When Robinson was Champ at welterweight he went years where he would fight 10 times a year... something unheard of with champions of today.

Robinsons combinations were deadly, he had a very strong stiff jab, an granite chin and all mixed with power speed and boxing iq. Unfortunately for pac, Robinson was far from an any individual he has ever fought.
Robinson by mid KO

well, his opponents fight same rate as well... so the wear and tear of both fighters that time is the same. Like today, most are only fighting 2-3x per year so the ratio of wear and tear of fighters before are the same so that is already nullified. So we cant use that as a gauge of fighters before and today...

The haters are out in full force tonight. What you dumbasses dont understand is that athletes get BETTER over time not worse. Robinson would be trash if he fought in todays era. Fighters with SUPER nutrition, SUPERIOR training, SUPERIOR strategies. Sorry but most of you have NEVER seen Robinson fight. Watch some videos of him with his slow ass right hooks and jabs. In ROBINSONS time maybe he was the GOAT. But in todays era he wouldn't be nearly as good I GUARANTEE IT. Hell even Mayweather beats Robinson. Manny would edge Robinson, split decision style. I ain't saying Robinson can't win but it'll be a lot closer than what you tards think. Are we all going to forget Robinson lost NINETEEN times lol.

What an awful thread. This fight wouldn't be close. SRR would take Manny to school and expose all his obvious flaws and shut him out if not stop him late.

[pasawayako]

Pac ko robinson too much speed.

[miron_lang]

too much size difference. RR was a natural Welter and a great middleweight.


Duran and Pryor would be better match ups

SRR would leave Pacquiao lifeless body in pool of his own blood......the phillipines would be in a state of mourning. I would laugh at every pacf@g...and lol@anyone who thinks pacquiao would ever step into the ring with SRR.

"know your limits.... Master Pac"


Robinson TKO..... just in my opinion.


But level of competition in todays game is a totally different animal.

2009 Manny would have torn the world a new one if he was in SRR's era....

[Build That Wall]

Robinson with ease.
