Comments Thread For: Roach Still Wants Pacquiao vs. Canelo: I Love That Fight!

[Canelo and GGG]

If we go on history of legends passed his prime fighting fighters that are bigger than them and also has the potential to become a legend themselves, out of all ATG legends, Only Lennox Lewis has succeeded against Vitali Klitschko. Robinson failed, Ali failed, and Sugar Ray Leonard failed, Joe Louis. And with Pac with Dela Hoya, Pac was the smaller man.

yea they failed,so it would be even better achivment for pac to have,this fight is most likely not happening but still if Pac would pull it off damn his lagacy would get serious boost you cant say otherwise.

JMM isn't a "mover".

He did not end Marg's career, Shane did. He did not end Rios' career as Rios was a one trick 135 pound size advantage having pony..who lost to Alvarado... and was thoroughly exposed by Abril.

You REALLY believe Pac would stop Canelo? Do you not watch boxing? Canelo is a top tier counter puncher with impressive handspeed (handspeed wise Pac has only fought a couple faster and lost to each).. He's one of the best counter punchers the entire sport..a combination throwing counter puncher at that. Last time Pac fought one of those he got put to sleep. Now add the size advantage and...no offense but what you say is borderline ******ed.


Pacquiao isnt stopping anyone post 147 because honestly..while being a hard puncher he just isnt as big a puncher as given credit for with dudes of his size. Lighter weights were different and Pac was a monster but that's not the case with the chins at 47.

Stop showing so much bias man... Canelo would walk Pac down and put him to sleep and counter in between. Look at the Khan fight. It'd look similar except Canelo wouldnt outbox him the entire time... I dont doubt Pac would make Canelo look bad for a few rounds in the beginning but the beatdown would just be a matter of time with Canelo digging body shots and landing his jab and right off counters. Pac isnt proficient enough defensively to pull a Floyd and Canelo is good against left handers to top it off. Even if they were roughly the same size I'm not sure I'd like Canelo as a matchup for Pac..especially at this stage. But Canelo is a combination of just too good and too big for Pac. Canelo is just too good to have such a size advantage over someone. A great little man beats a good big man but a great little man doesnt beat a great big man... Too young, too strong, too big, too good. Maybe James Kirkland or something...but Canelo? Sorry man...the Pac superman myth never took hold of me like it did for some. Absolutely love him but I live in the real world lol. Not Amir Khan/David Haye world

by the way who ****ed margoritos eyes up, correct me if im wrong but i believe it was pacman with a uppercut and destroyed him with over 400 punches landed, and the marquez fight the reason i believe pacman lost was cause he was to big headed and going out way to agressive trying to take him out, thats what i beleive we they type of fight we would of seen with pac and may if it happend before marquez 4 , thats y pac was more catious cause he koed by marquez if it wasnt marquez that night i personnaly beleive mayeather would of done it to him,in a cracker fight , and please dont campare pacman to khan, the first fight khan i watched was presscot ,they build him up like a machine, the dude cant take a punch for the life of him, his been down and on jelly legs nearly every time someone lands a punch on him, hes talented but can not take a punch, i dont buy into this canelo **** hes talented but not what people make him out to be, he doesnt even fight top 5 fighters at the time when hes fighting much and when he does the judges he has picked either have a crush on him or there paid off to build him up,i dont think hes the best in any division,remeber what division canelo was in when pacman was anilating everyone and mayweather was retired, the man is a talent but clearly doesnt want take a chance because he can make alot of money without taking one, still love the fight ur entitled to ur opinion, if pac looks good sat and he fights canelo net my moneys on pac all day
