    All things considered, Manny lost to Morales in the first fight. He arguably lost to JMM in the first three fights and was knocked out cold in the 4th fight, and he got blanked by Mayweather in their fight.

    Roman hasn't even come close to losing and he keeps moving up in weight and winning titles.

    Pac is champion from flyweight to welterweight, if roman can duplicate that then he's tbe.

    In my opinion no, Pac has better defense and offense (offense mainly due to angles and how unorthodox his fighting style was). Pac is one of the most gifted athletes to ever step in the ring. His power, stamina, chin, speed, reflexes were all elite. He has a style only he could pull off, and going toe to toe with him is suicide for anyone his size.

    Manny Pacquiao is one of the most physically gifted fighters in boxing history so no.

    At 126 pounds Pacquiao may have had the best combo of speed, power, stamina and chin ever witnessed. I mean ever seen in boxing.

    Nah.

    If Pac was to just use his feet and body with 0 offense he would more than likely be harder to hit than Gonzalez if Gonzalez were to do the same. Pac falls for traps, but he has shown his reflexes are good. He just doesn't have the skill set Gonzalez has when putting them both together.

    What do you mean? Is Gonzalez now better pound-for-pound than Pacquiao ever was? No. Chocolatito hasn't fought anyone of the caliber of Morales, Marquez, Barrera. Is he a future hall-of-famer though? Yes.

    Pac was good, better than Roman. Just was not as good as TBE, but Pac definitely ranks higher.

    Look at how many times Pac lost or got beaten up. He arguably lost to JMM in every one of their contests. Pac was a great fighter but he was also quite overrated for his so-called skill sets.
