Ranking Pacquiao among the greats

8 division? lol How many divisions did he unite? Counting that jr. middleweight belt fight against Margarito is laughable.

 

Make a poll here and ask is Canelo better than Morales or Barrera. They will laugh you off the board.

 

Crawford is better than cotto despite not having the resume. Pac wouldn't have sent Crawford anywhere even a prime pac.

 

You have been watching boxing for a long time. How many times in your life have you seen a Flyweight Champion dominate a strong Welterweight Champion?

 

Irrelevant canelo is hated here. He's better than both far more complete and more skilled and still not done.

 

Pac was a weight drainer and young when he fought there he wasnt a natural 112 pound fighter stop! he was huge for the weight like donaire was but even bigger than him.

 

Pac > Floyd.

Pac's resume is far deeper and has far more fighters closer to prime. A Loss doesnt define a fighter. 8 weight classes. 4 different decades. Unbelievable length of career for a fighter in the lower weight classes.

 

Okay, so when will we see a 7 division champ again since the accomplishment is so unimpressive?

 

IRRELEVANT. Pac fought at FLYWEIGHT and is now competing at WELTERWEIGHT. Search through boxing history and name another fighter that competed in both these divisions.

 

I give Pac credit for moving up in weight but I question how strong a welterweight champ Cotto was. I do think that the Cotto win was one of Pac’s most impressive victories. I would give Pac more credit if he beat Cotto while he was at 140

 

You can blame when Mayweather controls the "rules" of the fight.
Where to fight, who to fight, what time in there career etc.

its all about the "floyd" money.

 

People were being banned on this forum for saying that Pacquiao could go 12 rounds and simply survive against Hatton and Cotto. He sent both of them to the hospital. Ricky Hatton almost died. The ref put his hand on Hatton's chest because Hatton was hyperventilating because he was struggling to get oxygen.

Pac did what was thought to be impossible.

 

You think Pac’s “7” division championships is more impressive or even equivalent to what Armstrong accomplished?

 

Cotto was an above average champion. He was universally recognized as much more than a paper champ. Someone who was better than your average beltholder.

 

lol I picked Pac over Cotto because I didn’t think Cotto could keep Pac in front of him.
