Amazing Pacman!Light by the_great_flash (U6621807) 29 June 2008 IMO, Pacman did a very good job in taking the WBC Lightweight title from David Diaz. He has matured a lot, learnt a lot from proper training, has stayed humble, then applied it all on the ring. Amazing was the first word that popped into my mind when I was watching Manny dismantle David in the early rounds of their fight. Latest 10 commentsRead members' comments or add your own

doublejab (U11008652) posted Jul 3, 2008 Floyd doesnt crush anyone. For me Floyd has lost anyway. Castillo beat him! ODLH come close but id give PBF that one. Shame Manny is that little bit to small but saying that the way he's looking I predict 2010 Manny knocks out David Haye to lift the heavyweight championship! Come on Manny

invinciblebrucelee (U1771947) posted Jul 3, 2008 pacmanjunior dont compare JMM, Barrera, to PBF anyway. PBF is skilled in terms of defensiveness. His offensive abilities are not neccesarily better then Morales, JMM and Barrera. They are world class boxers so obviously PBF isnt way ahead of those guys. Its comparing apples and oranges.

Bob (U2764345) posted Jul 3, 2008 Bob i fully appreciate your argument but the point im making is that he hasnt fought a warrior with any real class. IMO Floyd hasnt fought anyone as good as Manny. Hatton and Castillo are warriors but they havent got the skills to be considered very dangerous. Manny has the heart and the skills and i would fully expect him to beat Floyd. Im not saying it would be a cakewalk but i think Floyd would be alittle taken back by how much pressure Manny will put him under. I realise that Manny can be countered and that suits PBF but Manny for me would be throwing so many accurate punches that PBF wouldnt be able to take advantage of it. Either way it would be a stunning fight.

craigmort (U8363900) posted Jul 3, 2008 I am one of pacmans biggest fans but think he would struggle at 147lb and would be in a real fight at 140lb agianst hatton. He is amaying and the best p4p in the world but the step up mazbe too much nowl, he beat Diay easily and would knock amir khan out in less than 4 rounds but against hatton he maz struggle and to be honest mazweather has fought arder punchers...

invinciblebrucelee (U1771947) posted Jul 3, 2008 Manny might not beat Hatton. But that dont mean he wouldnt beat PBF. Just because PBF beat Hatton it dont mean he would beat Pacman, even if Hatton beat Pac. You see, there is no exact logic to boxing and its not a science. Otherwise all people who bet on boxing would win.

Pacmanjunior (U8386969) posted Jul 4, 2008 First of all Floyd lost to castillo in the same way Hatton lost to Collazo and Pacman lost to JMM in fight 2 except to put the record straight there was a rematch. Now how on earth Manny couldn't beat Hatton but could beat PBF is beyond me if DLH couldn't ram raid Floyd out of sight whats Manny gonna do? Outbox him
