    I did have Donaire on the pound for pound list, but never top 3 like some of you guys. I believe he's still a great fighter, but I think his 2012 campaign was a bit overrated. I also believe Pacs WW/ catchweight campaign was overrated.

    The question is which fighters campaign was more overrated?

    Butt hurt Donaire, and Pac fans are encouraged to post!

    Pacquiao, Pacquiao only has 1 true welterweight win, that may sound fake but look it up

    His legacy was cemented before welterweight.

    Pacquiao beat an ATG in Barrera and has beaten a host of better fighters than Donaire. Only *******s really hyped up Pacquiao beyond his just due, calling him the GOAT and whatnot. But then again who really hyped up Donaire? He was justly rated P4P top ten, then got beaten by an incredible talent.

    I don't think either is terribly underrated. Following losses fighters become underrated.

    There is a myth among casuals that Manny cleaned out 147 but he only beat one true 147 pounder at 147, I was pro-manny till I saw what was happening, Donaire was only slight overrated cause he beat love who was there even if I think he'll struggle at 126

    Manny by far. Donaire was a generic 2nd coming of Manny once Manny's fans jumped ship.

    Skills/H2H and especially accomplishments, Pacquiao at WW far more overrated than Donaire at 122.

    Pacquiao got more Overrated because he has some of the worst fans in all of boxing.

    Still, he's a ATG fighter and much better than Donaire in every aspect of the game.

    Some folks were sayin' Donaire would beat Pacquiao at super-bantamweight... that's utter stupidity.
