What the hell have you been smoking? Rafael's right is not the best in boxing, its not as good as Juan Manuel's. Floyd Mayweather, Hopkins, Roy Jones Jr, Pavlik, David Haye, Wladimir when he uses it all have better crosses. Rafael is a great left handed fighter, but his right isn't all that, and if he traded with Pacquiao, its him not Pacquiao who has durability issues, and its Pacquiao who hits harder than Rafael at 122 p4p.
What durability issues? He's been stopped once in recent years. And that was clearly a pre-mature stoppage against a p4p fighter. The losses early in his career can't be used against him cuz he's not the same fighter. Just like Pacquiao's early stoppage losses can't be used against him. Rafael can be hurt. I'm not saying he has the greatest chin. But to say he's not durable is typical stupidity coming from you. To say Rafael's right hand ain't all that shows how big of an idiot you really are. Pacquiao has looked greatly lately. But that's cuz he's been facing fighters incapable of hitting him. But if you hit him you can hurt him. Rafael would hit him. And he would hurt him.
Watch Pacquiao-Marquez 1 or Pacquiao-Morales 1, he moved to face Morales and he took a ton of punches, but still kept on coming.

Also Marquez was 23 when Mataeos ko'ed him. And he was 25 when Genaro Garcia ko'ed him. Pacquiao was 18 and 20 when he was ko'ed and at 20 he was badly weight drained.

Also I didn't say Rafael didn't have a good right cross, just that it isn't the best in the sport, and you saying that shows that you are 10x stupider than I am. Manny hasn't looked just great lately, he's looked good for years. Rafael Marquez is also an excellent fighter, but he is a poor second to his brother, besides p4p power, he's not as good of a pure boxer, not as fast, not as good at counter punching, doesn't have the same quality of chin. He's a slightly lesser fighter than his brother Juan Manuel Marquez, thats nothing to be ashamed of. However, his chin, his average defensive skills wouldn't be enough to hold Pacquiao at bay, I think it would be a great fight but around rounds 9-11 Pacquiao would stop him.
