He might have the strength and speed and workrate to worry Pacquaio - but you would have to say Pacquaio by KO is the likely outcome.

The guy is like a Rock - I disagreed with Bunce who said something like Mayweather didn't fight as perfect a fight Pac Man last night... Pac Man is not in any P4P top ten defences - but with a chin like him (I think a contender for P4P #1 chin), the strength like him, the work rate like him, the speed like him, the power like him, the accuracy like him - he's pretty damn special and truly deserving of the #1 P4P fighter.

The started with show with a pre recorded Fields vs Barrett - giving it away that it finishes in the first before hand.

Then Bunce waffled about Field's dressing gown (which was funny, we say it at the end) and then they said "lets go live now and join the WBC Interim Super Feather bout at the start of the second round".

Showed the rest of that, then the Pacquaio fight (nice to have both interviews - cause Diaz's was funny a feck) - then showed just over half the other world title fight.

Frustrating aspect is - the obviously have the full rights to that PPV and its not exactly ground breaking TV that is on before it - it was a simulcast of Setanta News. Why not start the show at 2.

He is on the slide physically and hes losing his power as he goes up in weight. His skills are improving though

In what way is he on the slide physically? Based on what precisely?

He isn't losing power, he is hitting bigger men with better punch resistance.

He absolutely wrecked Diaz in there, that last left hook was pretty devastating considering how far up the weights he's gone.

anyone who doesnt see pac walking through khan in 1 round without experiencing any remote trouble whatsoever doesn't know boxing.

Pacman is superman IMO

stujones wrote:No, I don't.... styles makes fight and I think speed affects Pacquiao. Marquez (who has twice beaten him IMO) beat Pacquiao to the punch. For me the only other fighter at Lightweight who could beat Pacquaio to the punch is Khan.

If Khan wasn't so chinny (or at least it appears that way) then I think he could beat the lot. He would start a massive underdog vs Pacquaio - but I think he has the tools to give him the most problems.

Ultimately I think Guzman and Pacquiao KO Khan, but I think Khan's superior speed over Guzman, and superior workrate make him a tougher prospect for Pacquaio than Guzman.
