He may have fought a multitude but how do you judge the quality of his opponents? In the modern era, boxers do train scientifically with better coaches and trainers, dieticians, and equipment. It's not the quantity but the quality.
The coaches and trainers arent really better...the other things might be but that doesnt make up for the overall decline in quality and depth of talent in the sport in general.
This man speaks the truth! A lot of Pac's fans accuse one floyd mayweather of cherry picking... but i think Pacquiao of late has been the best protected boxer in the last 5 years. I'm taking nothing away from him- he will be in the HOF with HONORS! But I'm not convinced that his victories of late can be attributed to him being better than guys like Armstrong!
