    Hard to make a case for Manny in this fight. Whitaker is all wrong for him.

        I said they get caught when they try to clinch a lot you moron. Brandon Rios wasn't trying to clinch manny anytime and we are talking about a prime manny.

            I wouldn't pick any southpaw against Pac. He could probably write a book on how to fight southpaws.

              pac would beat whitaker. pac is far more aggressive (believe it or not) when he faces southpaws.

              he would overwhelm whitaker with 100+ quick lightning power punches from all angles.

              whitaker's defense is good against guys who throw textbox punches, but pac's punches are very awkward and come at you from weird angles. whitaker will have a hard time avoiding them.

                  I'd rather see Alexander vs Pernell.

                  Pacquiao would be too much.

                    ^^^^^^^^^^^

                    This guy definitely knows what he's talking about.

                      whitaker puts on a clinic

                      they're both lefties, so whitaker will have more angles to land his goat southpaw jab

                      manny sucks at cutting off a ring and would struggle to corner one with whitaker's footwork. whenever he does manage to throw whitaker will make him miss

                      lot of people are mentioning manny's 1000 punches per round. fact is his volume becomes ordinary when facing movers and/or counterpunchers
