He wont make it to TOP 5 for me, just for the simple fact that they dont fight 15 round fights anymore....
The value of titles however has also diminished. No doubt he is a great fighter however and the best since Sugar Ray Leonard or Pernell Whitaker.
Back then their was only 1 title.... And jr light weights had to fight light weights... Jr welters had to fight welters Jr middles had to fight middles Their was no junior divisions, and only 1 belt... So back then a 2 weight division champ Was like todays 4 weight, 4 belt undisputed champ.....
The 4 time lineal champ is leaps and bounds more impressive than the 8th paper title. Manny isn't even top 10 yet to me until he beats Floyd, and if he beats Martinez at 155, I'd say he could be in the top 5. If he ever beats these two slick fighters in convincing fashion, they're going to have to re-write the whole game!
GUys this guy is obviously a Pacquiao fan who doesn't know much about boxing and he came here to talk about how good he is. Don't worry, take it easy on him
