Duran fought most of his career at welterweight and middleweight. Pacquaio started as a flyweight and fought most of his career at featherweight. Only now has he moved up to lightweight.

Duran is too simply big for Manny.

What if Roberto Durant fight Manny Pacquiao in the Lightweight Division? I think that is going to be an exciting brawl, and just imagine both fighters exchanging thunderous blows in the 8th round.

This week i am going to buy Fight Night Round 2, 3, and 4 because both fighters are featured in the video games, and Fight Night Round have a better graphics compared to Knock Out Kings.

Duran is way too big for Pac. I'm uneasy about Pacman fighting Diaz and to even consider putting him with Duran is ridiculous. Duran is probably the best boxer to ever fight in the Lightweight Division.
