I understand your points, but you have to remember at one time the biggest prize in sport was the heavyweight champion of the world. And every , but everybody knew who Ali was. He was the most famous person , not sportman, but person in the world. It is still Ali for by a long way. For all Manny has done Ali was willing to go to prison for his beliefs , and a black man in the 60's is different to an Asian man in the 00's. Peace.
More people know Pac more than people knew Ali. Go to China, they dont know who Ali was. But they know who Pac is. Pac is not only willing to be incarcerated for his beliefs, he willing to die. There really isnt a comparison.
Pacquiao trying to make chinese believe he is Bruce re incarnated, still China don't know him. That BRUCE hair doo was a FAIL. FACT!
obviously you can't name the divisions because he didn't win no damn titles in 10 different weight classes. Troll
He can't be that big, even with a big station like CBS promoting him Pac couldn't even beat Floyd's PPV. And nobody likes Floyd. Nobody knows Manny in the USA outside of filipinos and boxing fans. Ali transcended boxing. And you would have to be a HUGE ******* to believe that Tyson wasn't the most important fighter in boxing after Ali. EVERYBODY knew and still knows Tyson. He practically made PPV boxing what it is today.
