With what is said why not put into account if Armstrong was in this era with the advantages in conditioning, nutrition, speed, and strength. With those advancements would he not has those natural advantages he had and the advancement he would have now!

There is film of some of Armstong's fights, and I have watched it. He was very good. He was always on the attack and threw lots of punches almost non stop. He had good power and took punches well. He was fast and a good puncher. He would swarm his opponents and threw more hooks than straight punches. He would be a very hard fight for any fighter his weight and most fans would enjoy watching the film of his fights.

This assuming armstrong gets the benefit of modern nutrition btw.

Not sure if armstrong ever fought a guy as quick with foot and hand speed as manny...
Speed is a great advantage to have
I still think Armstrong could find a way to win, but i think manny is clearly a "type" of fighter that hank has never seen before, so i cant be 100% certain he wins...

Pacquiao struggled badly with the rough housing of Sanchez. Seriously, Hank would probably put Manny to sleep

Pacquiao and Armstrong were a similar size and weight in their prime.
Both attacking fighters with bundles of energy, power and speed.
Pacquiao's advantages in footwork and technical skills might have edged it for him.
Would have gone the distance in a 15 round fight, but Pacquiao takes a close decision for me in a truly epic fight.

You also have to remember you could hit alot harder with Armstrong's gloves too. Lighter zero foam.
