PF pot is 300.

You're getting roughly 1.2:1 to call. Your hand is not strong enough to do this. Give him the hand.
This is the bubble, your stack is your weapon. Wield it wisely.

This is one of those scenarios where you can absolutely own the bubble. You have a massive edge here. Fold this, he surely has a real hand and you will make back the 200 the very next hand most likely.
