    You meant to say, "It's not up to you to say what's debatable or not, you silly child."

    Unfortunately, manny fought on the wrong generation. IMHO, he could have done well against those ATG's if they happened to fight at the same generation.And who knows he might got lucky to be on top on them H2H....:think

    Leanord beat a prime undefeated Thomas Hearns in an epic battle. Pac is an all time great but 7 weight "belts" does not compare.

    Oh Pacman for sure

    Ray Leonard ran from Hagler

    Pacquiao ran from the needle

    Hearns was so young in the 1st fight. He's about 22/23. That's not his Prime age & weight. That's why SRL was lucky to have a gift in the rematch.

    Marquez is disputed so I guess that evens out with Hagler except Hagler is way better than Marquez. Morales beat Pac so i guess that evens out with Duran except Duran is way better and wasn't weight drained

    Hearns could out box and out slug Pacquaio. If he was able to out box Leonard for a good part of their fight, then he out boxes Pacquiao. I'd take a slowing down Hagler victory and sluggish Duran victory over the Oscar Pacquiao fought

    Don't forget that he also lost to Duran and the win over Hagler is highly disputed.

    The fact that this thread even exists is a testament to how sad this forum has become.

    Leonard is the father of Floyd , the first with bull**** retirements etc... Since he had a few 'comebacks' from retirements he gets a pass vs Norris (though) I think he was past prime. Leonard stuggled with Donny big time but pulled out the win like a champ, Pacman distroyed Margo' , and he is def' better than Donny, so why are people giving the win ****?

    Leonard is better. For some more months, at least.

    Leonard's best victories are Hearns (arguably greatest Light Middleweight ever), Duran (greatest Lightweight ever) and Hagler (arguably greatest Middleweight ever). This beats Pacquiao's resume (Barrera, Morales, JMM, Cotto, DLH, etc).

    However, Pacquiao might twist this if he beats Mayweather. Especially if he consider that Leonard also lost against Duran and arguably lost to Hagler, while Pacquiao has destroyed most of his top opponents.
