i cant see any of them fights coming off at all

johnson and arbachakov would beat him easilly with the weight he'd have to lose

I'm saying back when Pacquiao was a Flyweight.

At Flyweights, Johnson and Arbachakov could beat Pacquiao

As others have intimated, Pac fought for world titles as a flyweight, winning a belt in that division.

The two flyweights would do him I suspect & Kostya always liked southpaws -- knew how to fight them. Difficult one though.

On reflection I favour all three names mentioned (Pac takes a better shot than Mitchell or Judah but they're at least as quick & no way does Pac crack as hard as Zab when he puts his mind to it. Zab at welter has flattened much bigger guys than Oscar, so I don't see Zoo wilting under the Pac attack) & I think they've all got a good shot at stopping him if all three were in their respective primes.

at catch weights Pacquiao ko's them all and 90% of fighters who fought at 10 stone on down

Jess Willard

The class difference is enormous, but Pacquiao is clumsy when he hurts his opponents. He hurts them all, & Hamed was often shaken early in fights, so I don't think it'd be the most shocking thing in the world if Pacquiao actually got careless & ended up looking at the ring lights as the ref counted him out.

It'd be a huge upset, but it could happen. Still, that's a possibility --- happening about once in six or seven bouts between them, IMO. The remainder of the time, that class divide shows, & Hamed never hears the final bell when it does.

Marquez would've been a much surer bet against Hamed, though. That would be a massacre every time out.

LOL.

Only way Manny wins that one is if Jess drains down to 145lbs, ala Oscar
