I have Pacquiao stopping Taylor with two knockdowns in round eleven, in a near-even fight! 1: 10-8 Taylor 2: 10-9 Pacquiao 3: 10-9 Pacquiao 4: 10-9 Taylor 5: 10-10 Even 6: 10-9 Taylor 7: 10-9 Pacquiao 8: 10-9 Pacquiao 9: 10-9 Pacquiao 10: 10-9 Pacquiao 11: Pacquiao TKO Taylor Card At Stoppage: 6-3-1, 96-94, Pacquiao Pacquiao down on a flash flooring in the first stanza. Taylor dropped twice in round eleven, after being wobbled once each in the ninth & tenth rounds.
Good call. Meldrick had a huge heart and was a tough guy but his tendency to brawl and shaky defense makes it hard to see how he overcomes Pacquiao.
Pacquiao would eat Meldrick taylor and then regurgitate him. Pacquiao by brutal stoppage in the middle rounds. taylor is too hittable and too engaging to survive pacquiao.
Prime Taylor isnt an easy fight for ANY junior welter in history, and that includes Manny. I go with the original scenario. Manny by late TKO in a fight he might very well be trailing in.
