    Make your own list, as many as you like.......for instance:

    U.S. Ray Robinson
    Japan: Fighting Harada
    Mexico: Chavez
    Nicaragua: Alexis Arguello
    Argentina: Monzon
    Canada: Sam Langford


    etc......admittedly, that's low-hanging fruit there, so correct me or add more of your own. :good

    Not at all; I'd say Pacquiao trumps any Filipino fighter, rather easily.

    Pancho Villa has to be up there and Flash Elorde too. The sport Manny competes in, may go under the name boxing but is not the same...

    Not that Pacquiao is not any good. He is brilliant, but would his star shine so brightly, if he was fighting up to a dozen times a year?
