Video Proof Robinson would have destroyed Pacquiao
Collapse

Basilio made his name as a welterweight and was champion for several years. One tough guy, pretty short, but as persistent and tough as nails. Robinson beat him in the return giving Basilio a HUGE closed and blackened eye (I think left) through which he obviously couldn't see, and he fought much of the fight that way.
Today the fight would have been stopped immediately, it was the worst eye I have ever seen.
And actually, he was quite fast, and these guys, in those days, fought non-stop, giving it to each other without let-up. Far tougher than today's fighters.

Some people make it so obvious that they don't know their boxing history that's it's just plain sad to see them even ask such ****! Pacquiao although a great fighter & an all time great has flaws like most fighters & those 3 fighters you named would exploit those flaws to the point where I believe all three would not only beat him but by KO.
I know that some of you guys on here are diehard PAC fans & naturally because of it are biased in his favor to the point where somebody actually made a thread that PAC is better than Sugar Ray Robinson which (SMFH & sadly too) is indicative of how little if any that person knows about boxing since Sugar Ray Robinson would beat all three in Leonard,Hearns,& Duran & those 3 would beat PAC.
Let's see I'll break it down one by one starting with Hearns. Do you guys remember how much trouble Morales gave PAC in their first fight because of his use of a long & steady jab everytime PAC moved forward to disrupt his rhythm & then pop him with a right cross? Well if you know anything about Hearns then you would know that he would keep PAC at his desired range & the moment PAC tried coming inside he would be disconnected from his senses by one punch......Hearn's murderous right cross! If you guys think PAC is heavy handed believe me when I tell you that he aint got **** on Hearns because Hearns was a monster puncher who ranks really high on the all time punchers list. Remember that one punch KO of Hatton by PAC well Hearns has one just like that but his victim was Duran & with one right cross. I like PAC but Hearns brutally KO's him inside of 6 rounds.
If he fought Duran it would be one of the best wars ever because they both just love fighting & it would be his most competitive fight because Duran would just flat out try to maul him but Duran had really good head movement unlike Hatton. I say PAC does well but due to accumulation of punishment gets KO'd late in the fight or Roach stops the fight. PAC would be facing an animal who loves to fight more than he does & that's something he's never seen. The thing about Duran is that not only did he love to fight but he was a mean & I really mean "mean ass" mother****er,he was menacing,rude,intimidating but was born to fight. Duran is one fighter who would psychologically beat the warrior out of PAC in the first few rounds & he would be the one to walk down PAC the same way PAC walked down Cotto! Duran stops PAC late or the Roach throws in the towel, matter of fact Roach even has said that Duran beats PAC.
Now onto Ray Leonard, if Marquez gave PAC hell with superior technique & counterpunching Leonard would just outclass PAC,he would frustrate the **** out him then when PAC got reckless due to the frustration he would pick him apart. He would really exploit PAC's flaws. Everytime PAC attacked he would wait for PAC to get off balance & drop him with slick ass counterpunches. Leonard not only was a superb pure boxer/counterpuncher but he also punched pretty damn hard & to top it off he was slick like a snail in a barrel of oil so hell no PAC does not beat him. Leonard was a sharpshooter with stamina & he would KO PAC late as well.
Now I know that you didnt ask about Sugar Ray Robinson but since I saw some idiot make a thread about PAC being better than him I figured I would enlighten that genius because I'm sure he'll read this thread since it concerns PAC. Robinson at 147 is considered thee absolute best fighter to ever lace them up ever! Way before all these alphabet titles ****ed up boxing Robinson was actually cleaning out entire divisions & the moving up to fight the best each division had to offer. Robinson was a tall,fast,murderous puncher with either hand & an iron chin. He could box,brawl,counterpunch do what ever you wanted to do & if it didn't work as well as he wanted to then he would just try to kill you flat out. Walk right to you & give you his signature 3 or 4 punch body attack & then try to take your head off because he finished that combination with hooks to the head. Remember how PAC sliced up Margarito with speed but couldn't knock him out with one shot? Well Robinson started boxing at 126 or 130 & was knocking out middleweights later in his career with one shot! & I'm talking about middleweights of that Era. Robinson would KO both Duran & Hearns for sure because of their aggression & Leonard might go the distance because of how slick he is but Robinson still beats him just ask Leonard. Muhammad Ali has said that he is the greatest heavyweight of all time but that the best fighter of all time pound for pound ever is Sugar Ray Robinson!
Robinson vs PAC ? Robinson kills him, ruins him too!
