    Here's a little summary of pac's career... is he just an ordinary fighter? you'll be the judge.

    pac the little warrior... look at that 16/17 yr old kid beasting against adult opponents!

    FLoyd is just blowing hot air coz he will never be as great as Pacquiao. He cannot understand that coz he thinks he's the best.

    That interview just made Floyd look real stupid. Pacquiao was knocking people out before he went to fight in the U.S.

    Floyd will never come close to Pacquiao's name in the Boxing Hall of Fame.

    agreed. He pretty much only lost to morales since then, and he fought guys in a golden era of 126 - 130'ers. His resume is better than floyds. Floyd would still win though.

    And he had a big win over Sasakul in 1998.

    He agrees with every single thing floyd says regardless, as evidence by him YET AGAIN using what mayweather says.

    thats a great videos

    BTW I noticed 2 things first of all that Pacquiao was a dedicated body puncher back in that day those blows look really harmful and second is that he was using his right hand and full arsenal the whole time his real issue was that he was too wreckless while now there is alot more thinking behind his approach.

    That video reminded me of how good Manny really has been. I have never given him enough credit. Boxers who come from complete poverty always fight harder.

    ^^Third world poverty is on a completely different than American poverty in the ghettos. You have entitlements programs (food stamps, shelters, medical etc.) in America. opportunity to make it in other countries sorry yo po yo po forever for the most part unless you come to the land of opportunity USA.

    In every era, there has always been the few that have baffled and surprised fans with wins they weren't supposed of have obtained because of their age. Jersey Joe Walcott, Juan Manuel Marquez, Sergio Martinez, Bernard Hopkins, George Foreman, Shane Mosley, and the list goes on and on. All these fighters had wins over legit competition when they were way past 25.

    There is nothing set on stone that you have to be undefeated to be the best. It's WHO you fight that makes you the best. You can have 5 losses, but if you are on a fight winning streak having recently beaten the best those 5 losses you had years ago don't mean a thing. Nobodies questioning Hagler's, Arguello's, Monzon's, Sanchez's, or Hopkin's greatness because of their early losses. They learned from them and they became better because of them. It changed them so much that they became the best. Floyd's comment can come off as a compliment or indirect insult to Manny, but sometimes these interviews and quotes he does are more entertaining than his actual fights.

    check out this cool video I found on youtube of Pacquiao vs Sasakul when he won his first lineal title at 19. You can see he is too wreckless but already he is a beast. Sasakul is very skilled and he was outboxing Pac in the early rounds but he never had much of a chance to win the fight.
