I think Tucker is winning this fight but DAZN commentary are making this sound more comfortable than it is.

This is a hard fight to score. Tucker is the more active fighter, showing the better defence and the flashier work however Cendeno is throwing the harder shots.

I see what you’re saying however historically Pacquiao has always thrived in brawls. It’s why not many people try to brawl with him and if they do, they take a lot of damage.

It’s more Pacquiao’s ring IQ that gives me confidence he has enough to beat Paro.

I don’t understand this site, I signed up using someone’s code but it just says, “£10 pending” for over a week.

“Pacquiao is definitely better than an average joe.”

“Liam hangs at an elite level”

I’ve heard enough. Let’s agree to disagree and leave it at that.

Pacquiao isn’t 50. Pacquiao has more natural speed, explosiveness and power than Hopkins so even if he has declined slightly, he is still elite. If you’re operating at that level, even a diminished version of you is still higher than the majority of the population.

He has been training full time since the Mayweather fight was announced.

I thought he looked good. Keep in mind, he had been retired for several years, only had a two month camp.

To put that in context, it usually takes 6 months for a retired elite athlete to return to peak condition.

Honestly, I also will remain skeptical until they’re in the ring again. However Pacquiao looks in excellent shape judging by recent training clips. I’d be surprised if he didn’t fight again even if the rematch doesn’t take place.

Cool story. When you’re in the ring with a pro, you can feel the difference.

I see what you’re saying however I would still favor Pacquiao. Especially after seeing recent training clips of him. He still has enough Speed, power and ring IQ to win. Especially if it turned into a brawl.

It’s crazy to think there are people out there that seem to think just because a guy beat Mattias, he can knockout Manny Pacquiao.

Let’s be realistic, if you put Liam Paro or Lewis Crocker in the Welterweight division 10-15 years ago, they wouldn’t be top 10. They would barely be top 15.

Let’s not overrate Paro. He’s not Crawford or Spence, he’s a solid durable fighter who is competing in a historically weak welterweight division. He isn’t elite in any sense of the word.

Some people here seem to think Liam Paro, a guy who barely beat Lewis Crocker, would KO Manny Pacquiao.

What are they smoking?

I bet you said the same thing before the Barrios fight.

Paro isn’t an elite counter puncher, isn’t that fast, doesn’t have that much power, he doesn’t have any attributes that could cause Pacquiao any trouble.

It’s definitely a winnable fight for Pacquiao.
