The Pac vs Sasakul fight is one fight that comes to mind in view of a forthcoming fight with PBF, an ultimate boxer against the raw fury of Pacquiao.
Not to say that the unbeaten Thai champ is by any means a PBF. PBF is PBF, and the rest... is not. LOL.
However, factor that at the day and time of the fight, when Manny's flaws through inexperinece was at its most apparent contrasting with the brilliance to that of the title-holder, will give us a picture of how frustrating a fight it was for Pac, and so consequently, a small window to how this much anticipated mega-fight may play out.
In that fight, Sasakul was giving Manny a severe thrashing. A boxing lesson, one might easily conclude. The disparity between the two protagonists in ring generalship was glaring. Pacquiao's frustration at his own ineptness was as clear as that day was sunny.
The pot-shotting is A-1 in quality with dashing footwork to boot. Pacquiao found himself pulling on his pants a lot more than making the sign of the cross. An indication that quit is still quite remotely far from his thoughts, but an alarming level of frustration at his inabilty to land leather is creeping in.
The Thai, unbeaten in 36 or so fights, and was considered as his country's national treasure, could not however, find a way to make the neophyte from GenSan, to finally mentally give up and quit the fight.
Why? Cause he cannot hurt him. Sasakul did not possess the power to short circuit the brain of the young man wired by nature for that of a beast.
Pac Ko'ed him in seven! If anyone would care to watch it, you'd see how a boxer with boxing skill at its finest betrayed by the lack of sufficient KO power. Sheer fury!
Pacquiao over Mayweather, lucky nine!
