      Imagine being the amateur to beat manny in the Olympics.

      Top rank would take care of the am the moment he goes pro. The story is too good to pass up on.

          You don't need to be Floyd to outbox manny. Marquez did it in their third fight.

            i guess he would compete at jr welter, so i think his biggest amateur threats would be the cuban toledo and the russian dunaytsev. pat mccormack is really good too, probably my favourite brit amateur

                  Amateur boxers are used to fighting for three rounds. They have perfected their styles for three rounds. Pro boxers wouldn't dominate if they were to participate at the Olympics. In fact I think most pro boxers would struggle at the Olympics. Different game.
                  Pacquiao has slowed down a lot. What weight would he fight at? I'm assuming it would be Light-welterweight.
                  Light-Welterweight may be the best division in amateur boxing right now. It's between that, Lightweight, Middleweight and Super Heavyweight for sure.
                  The best boxers at Light-Welterweight imo are Vitaly Dunaytsev, Yasniel Toledo, Fazliddin Gaibnazarov and Pat McCormack.
                  Also, watch out for 19 year old Kazakh boxer, Ablaikhan Zhussupov, he's the darkhorse of the division imo. He's already beat three fighters ranked in the top 10 and may be the best boxer of the bunch. Just doesn't have the experience.

                    Yes, a talented stick n move amateur would give manny fits.

                    I'd pick a Rigondeaux style fighter to knock manny's block off.
