He'd beat all and be heavily criticized for fighting tailor-made face first brawlers for half of them.
How would Pac do against the champions Floyd beat for his titles?

I'd pick Pacquiao to win against all of them besides Canelo, Canelo has too good of a right hand and he's skilled enough to lure Pacquiao into one. In fact he could lead with that punch and land it.Comment

I would pick a prime Pacman over all of them, Canelo would be a very difficult fight though due to the difference in size and Canelo's all round skillComment

to be honest, i think floyd would still beat canelo.
canelo doesnt do well with fighters that move and if floyd fight canelo now, i know floyd is gonna move a lot. at this point, he's not gonna risk exchanging with canelo. he's gonna tag him and move out.
if khan wasnt being an idiot and would have just box canelo instead, i think he would have survive longer or might even win a decision but he got ****y trying to trade.Comment

Of course its considered movement.
Just because they utilised such techniques doesn't mean that has to be replicated there's always more than one way to skin a cat, he has half a dozen losses and no two fights are the same. And just because a fighter has rarely if ever displayed something it doesn't mean he can't (Just like how Canelo apparently didn't have the feet to avoid GGG).
Floyd stayed away from everyones offense lol
He couldn't put combinations together like he once could and became increasingly negative during his latter years. I'm certain if Morales can stand in front of Manny and outfight him using an aggressive counterpunching style Canelo can if need be. Frankly he can beat him a number of ways not just because of his size but because he's the smarter fighter with the better boxing brain.
Its a predictable fight with Manny starting great for 3-4 rounds 6 being kind. His speed and angles absolutely would cause problems but he's human and that 20+ lb weight advantage WILL take its tole, those bodyshots will sink in and he will slow down. He'll become even more stationary, he'll start coming in in straight lines not moving his head and get wiped out. We've all seen it dozens of times, there are weight divisions for a reason. No 5ft6, 143lb man is beating a 170lb Canelo.
Floyd will always do better against counterpunchers, Manny will always do better against pressure fighters.
People on here (guys that dont box im sure) always overplay the weight factor. Floyd is longer and as tall or slightly taller than Canelo, canelo isnt beating pacquiao on size alone, he's not a monster puncher neither, he's a decent puncher, so lets not act like Pacquiao cant trade with him a bit (although too often and he would indeed find him self heavy and cumbersome). Canelo is also not as intelligent inside the ring as pacquiao, that's a hilarious assumption, you're of the "defensive fightera are always smarter" school arent you? If canelo was so smart he'd know how to fight at different gears and he wouldnt have been outboxed by Golovkin.
Anyway, this seems ****** since we cant prove it, but I see the fight going opposite, but then again i'm structing my views from what i've seen not plucking it purely from imagination.
Canelo starts off well, using his speed, explosiveness, even his feet to slide along with pacquiao, pacquiao feints and feints him, weave and bob, being cautious of Clenelo's size, feint with the feet, feint with the feet, come in when it's least expected, canelo trying to unload on him but when he starts to punch pacquiao has jumped out. Pacquiao always trying to inch closer, canelo burning energy trying to stay on his toes to get those money shot counters. Who's winning after the first 2, maybe 3 rd's? Dunno, not important, remember what bradley said, those feints tire you out, bradley, supremely conditioned for 12 rd, marquez, supremely conditioned for 12 rd, mayweather, supremely conditioned for 12 rds, clenelo, foot off the peddle, laying on the ropes by rd 3. Clenelo eventually gets heavy on his feet and starts getting lined up by the left cross, he wont keep countering Because he wont be capable of keeping up with a pacquiao, and he'll proceed to get lit up for the duration of the fight. Poor young kid with his future ahead of him, should the corner have pulled him out? Can pacquiao sneak in some killer bodyshot like he did vs Margarito? That's a possible gameplan for roach and pacquiao to work on with the poor stamina displayed by Canelo vs Trout.
Aint no way Canelo is beating pacquiao unless he ko's him early, he's just gonna tire. When you're banking on a ko it also rarely works out.Comment
