Well if thats the case then people , Ali's first fight in the pros is more important than the "Thrilla in Manila" Like I said Stupid.
Pacquiao easily. Put simply, of all the big fights he's had he's lost only one and drawn another. His other losses were well before his prime.
hypocrisy? ok so im in. pac's legacy have already equalled oscar after he was finished all the fights with the 3 mexican future HOF and ATGs where he compiled a record of 5-1-1. pac had already went up 3 times and beaten oscar himself and hatton who is already a lineal and the best at 140 in an impressive fashion. of course pac's legacy would still become better if he manages to win more adding a 147 belt but would see his resume goes down if he loses. don't get me wrong, oscar has an outstanding resume, but what pac has done as of late is truly legendary. a former flyweight dominating at 122~130 and then goes up and beat fighters at 140 and 147.
you might have these mixed though, oscar had beaten tito but pac has the greater legacy. and yes, lets bump uliuli's ******ed thread about oscar-pac.
I didn't know you're the one who decides on who's ATG or not! I like your honesty in ridiculing Pac's best wins and saying afterwards that you prefer Manny than ODLH! Are you trying to impress to us that you're an idiot?
You can cut that 6 division **** down to 5 for starters, Sturm & Hopkins beat him. DLH fought the best & was a very good fighter but I struggle to call him a great fighter. Pacquiao is a great fighter, the best of his era next to Mayweather, Oscar aint close to being the best of his era, no way.
cant remember Oscar beating Trinidad/Mosley the 2 HOF he beat were Chavez and Pernell, both well past it + he was lucky to get the decision with him. and for those who say Oscar would have wiped the floor with Pacman should watch that fight the Pernell fight, Pacman has developed a very defensive/offensive elusive style + hes a south paw like Pernell and quicker than at the stafe Pernel faced Oscar. u have also missed some excellent win for Pacman vs the likes of Oscar Larios etc
Translation - I cant score a fight properly so I will let 3 fat corrupt ****s in suits tell me who `won`
Pac was in a worse situation as a teenage fighter. He was a construction laborer and was fighting only as a side job. He was malnourished and badly managed. He virtually trained by himself in the early stage of his career. Oscar has never been in similar situation.
I'm going by what's on record:deal But I have no problem with the 5 div. thing. I'm guessing you're using the same standards to judge other Great fighters (ie Hearns, Leonard), which would mean DLH is still up there with them in terms of multiple div. holders. Again no problem with that as long as you understand that you are in a very small minority there! And we can save the different level of "greatness" for another occasion. Pac and PBF are great fighters and DLH is right up there with them:deal
I'd have to go with Pacquiao. Oscar has fought more names than anyone, but he has lost his fair share of big fights. Manny has won the majority of his big fights, and avenged his only big loss and draw. Manny is included in conversations with Armstrong and Robinson, Oscar simply isn't. Oscar is a very good fighter, but he isn't a great fighter. Manny is a great fighter.
