I'd have to lean toward Pacquiao. Reason being, If nothing else, because Hamed had trouble when he stepped up and faced Marco Antonio Barrera. Hamed lost a unanimous decision in 2001.
Pacquiao defeated Barrera by TKO in the 11th round in 2003. Hamed was a good boxer, not a great one. Pacquiao's got better skills, hits just as hard if not harder and is just a better overall fighter.

I'd go with Pacquiao. Pacquiao is stronger and packs a devastating KO punch. They'd even out each other in terms of speed so Pacman's strength and power will be the key. Hamed avoided Pacquiao's countryman Luisito Espinosa for many years and Pacquiao is obviously stronger and more talented than Luisito so it'll be a Pacquiao victory for sure.

one good punch retired Hamed for the rest of his career. Marco doesnt have anything near the punching power Paq does and I dont even think Hamed would of dreamed of jumping in the ring with Paq. Hes a proven warrior. Hes been koed and hes fought everyone. (except for soto, guzman which should happen in due time) But no matter what he keeps coming back.
Plus Hamed has a glass chin, and with paqs footspeed he would have no problem staying on top of hamed. Hamed was hella fun to watch, but paq is the more complete fighter. And is a fighter at heart which hamed is not. He was just very talented.

Hamed was a nobody. He clowned when he fought B and C class fighters. The first rated fighter that he fought...stopped him cold and put him thru the canvas.
EARLY stoppage...Pac would have nothing to fear from him and Hamed doesnt have the heart or the skill to fight anywhere near that. This question rates up there with "Malignaggi versus Mayweather..who wins"...

Pacquiao would destroy him in his prime no doubt. He had more power and heart than him. A prime Hamed wouldnt be able 2 beat Pacquiao now.

Interesting fight, but I see Pacquiao winning this one. Hamed leaves himself more open than Pacquiao. Someone would surely get KO'd, which I believe would be Hamed.

Manny is a serious fighter, Naseem was entertaining with some talent but he clown around too much. Manny by late stoppage.
