    The ring magazine website is having a 26 part feature in its website of the greatest fighter with surnames that start from A-Z

    For Letter "A" then picked Armstrong. Tomorrow, it's the turn of letter "B"
    Fastforward to letter "P", who would take it?

    Pacquiao is involved in a different sport to Pep. Pep is clearly in a league of his own, on this topic compared to the opposition stated.

    Pep's skills and use of the sweet science is on another level to Pacquaio, athletically though Pacquaio is on another level to Pep and imo he'd never lose to someone as slow and basic as Saddler, which Pep lost because he just wasn't as big/strong/conditioned enough at the weight, which is something he lacks in his P4P ability. I also don't so Pac losing to Angott. However Pep may well outbox Pacquaio to a decision

    I'm not making a pick, they are just so different in terms of the qualities they have

    Pep was a brilliant fight scientist in the ring.

    Pacman is a tornado.

    I go with Pep.

    Saddler, slow and basic. Or, you could say he was strong, powerful, rangy, durable, nasty and clever on the inside.

    I'd like to see Pacquiao take on Saddler after fighting 136 times already. And I wouldn't necessarily pick Pacquiao to beat Angott under the same circumstances either - Pep fought twelve times in that same year.

    Exactly what I was thinking. a three way Feath. boxoff between. Pacquaio, Pedroza & Pep would be very interesting indeed...
