Manny Paquiao is simply Amazing! the single greatest real fighter of the last 25 yrs.

Pac is a pretty good fighter --- yes.
Amazing ???????
Yes he kicked Oscar's butt.
And that what he was suppose to do.
So, if you want to suck his dick --- go for it.
I'll pass.

 

Pac is right up there. A legendary fighter for our time.

 

Pacquiao

112 122 126 130 135

and he's not yet done.

 

For daring to fight a named fighter against insurmountable odds like physical disadvantage (height & weight), going up 3 divisions higher, you should give him credit for that.

 

hmm... as i remember, what pac was supposed to do was to get KTFO'd by hoya within six rounds according to 90% of the boxing press and fans. :deal

 

<<< The greatest fighter of the last 25 years

 

We're way ahead of ourselves with this kind of talk. If Manny gets past Hatton - then we can get crazy.

 

yes, yes he is......we're witnessing history here, a REAL legend, a REAL warrior, a REAL boxing king

anyone who says other wise is deceiving themselves...

 

Now I know there's been a lot of hyperbole in this thread but you gotta give Pac his due. He's the undisputed P4P king. No one even comes to the achievement he's accomplished this year.

 

he destroyed a prime barrera ranked p4p didnt he?

stop the hatin man...

 

ESB always overrates a fighter after every fight that he wins.

This always happens to every single top class or up and coming fighter that wins impressively.

I personally think it's just the endorphins talking.

Let's wait a couple of weeks, then I'll read your posts again.

With that TKO win over Oscar, Manny probably solidified his number 1 spot in the Mythical pound for pound rankings of 2008.

But I dont think he's the absolute best fighter since 1983.

He's going up the rankings pretty quick, though.

 

Pac is a damn good fighter. No questions about it. Definitely high up there as far as ranking the best of the past 25 years but think about who we've seen since 1983.

there have been some great ones. Whitaker, Jones, Chavez, Holyfield, Tyson, Mayweather, Lewis and a few others. Hes up there but I dont think hes at the top.

 

He's good, but some people are gettinga little carried away. I'll hold him in higher regard when he finally beats JMM decisively.

 

HE is the most exciting boxerer in a long time there's no question thurr. Buh, the greatest? nah..
