Re: Welterweights: Donald Curry vs Manny Pacquiao
It's an interesting fight because we tend to remember when Curry was shot in his final years and forget how good he was in the first half of the 1980s. Curry fought and beat some guys with fast hands (Starling, La Rocca for instance) and good punchers (Jones, Diaz, McCrory) in that time period, nobody with Manny's combination. Tough call. In his prime I'd probably go with Curry either UD or late TKO

I'm taking Manny Pac- way too much offense for Curry to handle.
Re: Welterweights: Donald Curry vs Manny Pacquiao
A close matchup. Pac still had an edge with speed and sharpness, gotta go with him.
Re: Welterweights: Donald Curry vs Manny Pacquiao
Prime Curry by UD or late stoppage.
Re: Welterweights: Donald Curry vs Manny Pacquiao
Curry by 8th round stoppage, man in his prime was top notch. Most forget that.
