    I don't care what he weighed the day before a fight when he was 22. He's 6"1 and fought as high as cruiser weight! PAC can't win this fight

      I accidently picked Hearns by decision but come on this isn't even a fair match up. Hearns was taller, bigger, and a pretty good boxer. Pound for Pound Pac's a better fighter but head to head Hearns wouldn't have much trouble with smaller Pacquiao.

      Hearns KO 5.

        what more with Hearns who has a 78in reach...this fight is allllllll wrong for Manny...he gets measured and lit up with a sledgehammer and put to sleep
        Touching is one thing, landing big is quite another.

        Apart from Marquez who has done it in the past 8 years.

        And Pacquiao would the first part of this fight much like he did against Oscar.

          Size matters. The reason Hearns whipped the great Duran is that we're talking about a lightweight moving way up. You're not the same as you were at that lower weight.

          Smaller frame guys with tons of talent can whip bigger guys. But not if the bigger guy is extremely good.

          Pac is a little guy. Hearns would slaughter him with that jab and that straight right hand with Pac trying to come inside. Bam. Goodnight little guy.

              A better question-what row would Manny's head land in when Hearns hits him like he did Duran?

                here's roughly the size difference between pacquioa and hearns



                duran clocked him right on the chin, pacquiao would have little problem doing the same from the southpaw stance if hearns doesn't keep his distance

                  The Duran fight was at 154lbs.

                  Pacquiao has more than enough power to KO Hearns.

                  He has the better footowork and can exploit defensive flaws in Hearns.

                    I can't really see an argument for Manny making it to the finish line. Tommy's too sharp, too long, and hits way too hard.

                      That is him at 154lbs

                      Judge him on this fight



                      Vs

                      The Pacquiao that Cotto fought.
