Pacquiao isn't dumb he definitely has the talent and boxing ability (talking Pacquiao now) to outbox Hamed. Pacquiao always has a good gameplan, I'm sure he wouldn't square up and trade with Hamed. I don't know, I hate these mythical matchups but with a gun to my head I would pick Pacquiao to pick him apart from the outside. But like most said, Hamed would probably lay back and try to land one of those ridiculous punches he had but my guess is Hamed's chin fails before Manny's.

This time I would agree with you eagle.
Naz has bad defense. Pacquaio has overall good defense. In terms of speed and power, Naz would be lesser. In terms of chin, Pacquaio has already proven himself.
Naz could hardly counter Barrera.Pacquaio demolished Barrera in their first fight.
May I know then in what aspect would Naz beat Pac?

To be honest with you, that's a good question. The closest Manny ever got to prefight antics was Marquez always stating it was obvious he won the first fight and that's NOTHING! It kind of hard to be a jerk to someone who is so humble and kind to everyone.
But if anyone had the potential to get into Pac's head, it would probably be Hamed. Manny does all his talking with his fists.
I would say Nas had better one-punch power than Pac. Pac breaks you down, Nas gets you out in a hurry.
Nas was much slicker than Manny too! If I had to choose between dodging a punch and blocking one, I would dodge it.
Nas also threw punches from weird angles.

Hamed was a good counterpuncher and i've seen him having a pretty solid defense, he relied on his reflexes 99 percent of the time but i was pretty sure his defense was pretty good since he started his career as they called a "fancy dan with knockout power" He looked pretty good defensively, he was knocked down by Alicea but he looked pretty good dodging punches in that fight. You think Pacquiao has a better defense then Hamed did? How so?
Remember a decent Southpaw named Kevin Kelley ?? he scored 3 knockdowns on Naz because he countered Naz, now just imagine Pacquiao in Kelley's shoes Majesty. Just raising this question to give you something to think about, Naz had terrible balance and he could be countered. And Pacquiao is an underrated counter puncher he even countered a very good counter puncher like Marquez in there 2nd fight, and he is much faster and much more powerful than Kelley is.
