My point exactly also. The reason why people think Marquez is amazing is because he beat pacquiao. By their logic, this implies that Pacquiao is really good too.

Thus, the people who praise Marquez yet say Pacquiao is overrated/sucks are contradicting themselves. Whoever praises Marquez should also praise Pacquiao for being a great fighter. Anyone who says otherwise is just a hater.

I think you may be missing the point of "overrating" him.


Pac is a great fighter. And he should be rated as such. But he was never the GOAT who didn't have a single flaw like some of his fans tried to make him out to be. There is a difference in ATG and GOAT and when you take an ATG and rate him as the absolute GOAT, you're overrating him.


None of this takes away from Marquez victory, especially as it's the only victory out the four fights that was decisive and without controversy. And he was the older, less-powerful, and slower fighter who no one thought had a chance of winning by KO.


It was spectacular.

Because overrated doesn't mean suck or garbage he's still a legit top 5 p4p for the last 10 yrs.We say overrated because he & floyd get all the credit attention in the world & get a free pass for no fighting the best or each other yet Marquez is & they call themselves both king.More like king off excuses & hype.

Manny is great, without a doubt, but the media tends to amplify everything x10. That's why only true fans that know and follow boxing, the "other" fighters, know what must be done for a particular fighter to be great. So for conclusion Manny is great, but not as great as the media has labeled him to be. Even experts like Bert Sugar can make mistakes. Same goes for Floyd, but on a smaller scale.

Wow, beating Pacquiao cements your place in history now? Are you Pactard or something? I think JMM's ENTIRE career did that same as MAYWEATHER and any HOFer who preceded them. DAMN shoe in Torrecampo and Singsurat as ATG, they are conquerors of this sport!

To say Manny Pacquiao is overrated... Thats just wow . He is the first ever 8 division champion in the history of boxing , Thats something no other great boxer has done . His accomplishments is what made him an ATG .

He's not an 8 division champ! 150 belts don't exist, he's a fraud!
Ever since mayweather brought the ped accusations PAC hasn't had a knockout, he's a fuckin cheat! Fuck PAC and his stupid fans!
Mayweather>jmm>fanny PAC
Deal with it!

They will. We're witnessing the backlash of all the Pactard stupidity we've had to endure in these forums. They'll be back though, just like flies on dudu.
