    “I’d say the 8-division champion, because it’s something you will always be remembered for. You still got a lot of money, you don’t have a billion dollars, but you got something your kids and grandkids could remember. It’s a legacy, something that lives on forever."

    Apart from the championships, Pacquiao didn't duck certain guys, didn't wait his opponents to pass their prime and he didn't need to buy judges at the Vegas. That is enough for me, he always showed heart and gave the fans exciting fights (well apart from one and it wasn't his fault).

    I'm starting to like this guy. He also said Canelo is not a great fighter. He's on to something, on more than one thing, it would seem.

    Pac's legacy is really coming into focus. It will age incredibly well once the cat is actually retired.

    Pacman by a mile Everything he's got he EARNED!! like a real fighter does. He has never had any test pop dirty Never even a serious suspicion of one Neither has he had the State commission cover his back to preserve his bogus 0 with "friendly" judges lol. Mayweather tried to claim Pac was using Ped's but when Pac sued them they hastily apologized cost them mighty $$$$$$$$$ too
    Pac's legacy FARRRRRRRRRRRRRRR outdoes Floyds & Floyd knows it

    He's right. Pac fought anyone and everyone anywhere anytime, not just a bunch of calculated hand picked opponents that are not prime and that you matchup well against.

    Everyone knows that.

    If I tell you today that a former flyweight would move up weight classes and start dominating fighters at welterweight, you'd never believe me. You'd think I'm crazy.

    What Pac has done is pretty insane. Truly a once in a generation fighter with accomplishments that will never be matched again.

    To rank a guy who has never beaten an elite fighter in their prime over a Flyweight champion who destroyed Miguel Cotto would be nonsensical. It makes no sense. It's absurd. At face value. It's ridiculous.

    Except he drained Delayoha, Hatton, and Cotto and many would argue his "superstition" that giving an ounce of blood for a ped test "weakend" him - a claim with no scientific validity - was a duck of prime Mayweather.

    I'll give you the superstition nonsense, that was an excuse to juice right up to the fight.
