Featherweights: Alexis Arguello vs Manny Pacquiao

[elmersalsa]

Alexis Arguello, The Explosive Thin Man from Nicaragua, won 19 straight world title fights in 3 different weight classes.

Manny Pacquiao of the Philippines, won 8 world titles in 8 weight classifications.

Who wins this fight of true all-time pound per pound greats?

I will pick The Explosive Thin Man by knockout, sometime around the 14th round in one of the greatest featherweight matches in history.

I like Manny Pac in this one because of his speed . Pac on points.

I picked the Explosive Thin Man by decision or late round stoppage as he was successful beating southpaw fighters like Watts, Limon, Boza-Edwards and Navarrette as the Pacman would be one of the biggest name southpaw fighters that Arguello would face as this fight would be a war.

I'm going with Pac in this fight. One of Arguello's biggest weaknesses was speed particularly food speed. Pac wasn't quite as sharp as a Featherweight as he later got when he developed his skills more and more, but I still think he had the stuff to beat Arguello.
