    Khaosai Galaxy as great as he was never ventured outside of Japan and Thailand as far as I can remember. This lessened his name recognition.

    He is both overrated by those who look at his record and see the high number of ko's and underrated by those who never heard of him and was not there at the time when he was fighting due to them never knowing him nor the fighters he fought.

    I saw most of Galaxys defenses, he was a beast. There are a few 'holes' in his record but he was still one hell of a fighter.

    if you want to look for an asian fighter who can compare to pac, it has to be fighting harada and not khaosai galaxy. but i say pac has already surpassed harada in terms of accomplishments, resume, fame and ATG status. harada was never close to being called the best fighter in the planet during his time unlike pac.

    Pac has beaten most of your Mexican hero's. When he has beaten Floyd, that is where Pac's true greatness begins. Pac has stomped all over your hero's...who I admit were past it, but he has not beaten a fighter like Floyd. Until he does that, you guys can overrate him if you want. You are todays fans so you'll overrate any fighter today. You fans today have no real sense of history. Your hero's are falling fake Aztec Warrior. They are quitting, getting beaten up, and it is happening right before your eyes lol. Beat Floyd PAc, and I'll consider you a legend. Beat AM before he is old or beat Paul Williams also at 147...and you are a legend in my book.

    You're a traitor pusshead lol. You are a PAc fan, a ******, and Pac nor any of your Mexican heroes will ever come close to being a Muhammad Ali. Floyd is undefeated, and your heroes of today have all been knocked out or beaten up by Pac, PW and Floyd. PAc has been knocked out twice. I respect him, but when you compare him to legends, you don't have a leg to stand on. As far as you, you'll never see a fighter in your lifetime who is Mexican come close to the skill of a Floyd and a legacy like Muhammad Ali's. Pac fans, you have converted the fake Aztec warrior and tamed him. Aztec is a fraud lol. Edwin Valero awaits...will Margartio fight PW? Naw, he will take his money fight...2 mil to fight an old man. You disgust me pusshead. You are a converted PAc fan. He forced you to love him, and you will lol...

    ALT!:lol: . You don't know what Floyd is going to do. When you see or hear him speak, let US know. Stop speculating. Floyd made his bones long before 147.

    Galaxy was one hell of a fighter.. He got better and better with each fight, and the Thai Tyson was one of the strongest southpaws who ever lived at his weight.
