Mayweather that beat Gatti VS Pacquaio that beat De La Hoya

[BG_Knocc_Out]

you might have to rewatch that fight again, fellow laker fan..PAC showed exceptional defense...he used his superior foot speed to dart in and out and didn't prolong the exchanges...he got in, unloaded on DLH and got out...he was wary of DLH's left hook and never really allowed Oscar's only weapon, the jab, to dictate any of parts of that fight

^ This.

Pac kept DLH fearful of throwing jabs and left hooks because of the counter lead-left from Pac. It was absolutely masterful.

I've always felt the Pac that beat DLH, Hatton, and Cotto would beat any version of Floyd.

How can you be more dominant than Floyd vs Gatti ? Gatti didnt land one single punch of the whole fight. Also Gatti was in far more worse shape after round 6 than DLH was.

Pac fought a zombie, Floyd fought a punching bag. I don't think that these two fights should be used as an argument to explain why somebody think Floyd or Pac would win if they ever fight.

You make it sound like Floyd fought prime Gatti

This was McGirt's Gatti that was just trying to prolong his career by winning with more boxing. Heck, just like Oscar, Gatti had trouble making 140 by then. It was his last fight at 140 and Gatti was no WW.

Yet you deliberately fail to mention that it would be easy to put on a display against an old, past prime, drained Oscar.....lol i get it.

If you were not biased, you would say similar comments about Gatti.

Well, lets not forget that that version of Manny didn't even know how to spell defense, and that version of Floyd, while not being as defensive as he is now, was still held as the best defender in the fight game. Just some points to think about. Good action fight it would be.

You are either being biased again, or you know Sh$t about boxing ..... make your pick!

I god.. Another "Prime PAC vs. Prime Money" thread. Jesus stop speculating. It's been done to death.

DLH that beat Gatti beats them both.

fair points, his defense is his in and out darting with very limited head movement. i don't how successful that would have been against Floyd, especially a 2006 Floyd who actually let his hands go and could legit hurt you, laser like accuracy who prayed his opponents would be aggressive. Manny's a beast, but idk if he would be the man to do it.

The Mayweather that fought Gatti is the Mayweather you would hope to see on fight night believe it or not. He was vulnerable to some big shots, however Gatti wasn't sharp enough or quick enough to capitalize on any of the openings.

He was finished after Floyd's first round cheap shot, that's where Floyd learned the Ortiz KO.

expound, not condescending you or anything, I just want to hear how Manny would have pulled it out.

or....maybe the poster i was responding to had already brought those points up.....just a thought.
