    That's why Pac will be remembered when they write about the history of boxing and Povetkin won't.
    Or maybe because Povetkin comes from a deep amateur background and Pacquiao turned pro before his balls dropped. Pacquiao was sloppy as hell in that fight.

        This would be a scintillating fight which I'd lean towards Ortiz to win. Reason being, he seemed a lot more comfortable against a come forward combination puncher in Jennings than Povetkin did against a tank like counter punching stalker in Takam. Both men would ultimately be fighting probably the most dangerous man on either's resume and either one could win, though the way Ortiz just effortlessly destroyed a very good fighter in Jennings makes me think he'd get the upper hand against Povetkin.

        Bring it on though. Eff Wilder and his lanky ass, this is a real fight.

          Don't know if Pac was especially sloppy. Like Napoleon said "You must not fight too often with one enemy, or you will teach him all your art of war." JMM just knew him inside out.
