PACQUIAO VS CHAVEZ: WHO's LEGACY HAD A GREATER IMPACT ON THEIR COUNTRY

Pacquiao as an ambassador for his country. Chavez was huge for boxing but we don't know what effect Pacquiao will have on future Philipino boxers. Chavez's impact on boxing is happening now because of the surge of fighters who were inspired by him, so in 15-20 years, we should see a similar surge of Philipino's who got into the sport just because of Pacquiao.

There's no doubt though, that Pacquiao has had a bigger impact on his home nation though, just because of his politics.

 

absolutely pacquiao coz everytime he has a fight the gov't forces and the communist rebels agreed unofficial ceasefire and during the duration of the fight there's a zero crime rate and no traffic, police and criminals are watchin the fight. everybodies watchin it in the philippines.almost all the young people want to be manny.

 

it's hard...cause manny is ****en huge over there
and with chavez, you already had mexican greats that opened up the door for mexican boxers, but chavez not only opened them up more, bull dozed thru, even though mexico already had it's share of great fighters, rivalries etc etc.........not only that, but chavez really brought a lot of attention to the lower weights while tyson was at his prime, and we all know how hard that is/was

 

When Chavez fight there's still crimes, when Pacquiao fight there's no crimes....you do the math LOL.

 

Population as of July 2010

Mexico: 111,211,789

Philippines: 97,976,603

 

That's a really good point. I think Pacquiao is bigger for his home nation but Chavez made the sub-147lbs weight divisions interesting. He really did make people realise how good boxing was in the lower divisions, more than anyone before or after him. Guys like Barrera, Hamed, Morales and even Pacquiao himself, wouldn't have become the stars they did, without JCChavez making people aware of the lower weight divisions. He deserves a lot of respect for that.

 

Why are you trolling so hard?:-(
