    That makes no sense considering that you have a bunch of other fighters on that list that have had more than 8 losses and KO losses to average fighters. Take Ezzard Charles and Roberto Duran for example.

    It also doesn’t make sense to have Toney and Tyson ranked ahead, let alone Azumah Nelson.

    They were all better fighters with better fundamentals. Azumah Nelson would knock out Pacquiao

    I’m not complaining about Marquez being roided. I’m honestly glad he used them to be honest.

    Even Eric Morales said “farmacia” jokingly after the KO.

    All their fights were so f’n good.

    Had I not been at the MGM on their first fight in 2004, I would never be at this place.

    Really glad Pacquiao lasted this long. He’s got 1 more fight in December and January and he’ll call it a day..

    Amazing career and ATG!!

    Having better fundamentals doesn’t always mean greater overall. Ali had really flawed fundamentals but he’s seen as the greatest HW. Charles and Duran are greater than Pac. Pac is greater than Nelson, Toney, Tyson, RJJ IMO. I also think that Pac would have beaten Nelson in a great fight.
    Pac’s achievements is something that’s unheard of (his weight climbs and being oldest WW champion). And he has great wins over a bunch of HOF and future HOF fighters. That’s why he’s arguably Top 15 or higher.

    But we’ll just agree to disagree.

    Better than RJJ? RJJ went from middleweight to heavyweight, a far greater feat IMHO than going through the lower divisions. Let's also not forget that Pac fought at catchweights. Pac seems to be the only fighter who gets a pass for fighting so many catchweights.

    Best we agree to disagree because I have no doubt Nelson knocks out Pacquiao . If Marquez did imagine what my zuncle would do to Pacquiao. You are just biased towards Pacquiao

    I somehow missed Pernell Whittaker on my list another one that would literally school Pacquiao

    And clearly you are biased towards Nelson as well. Nothing wrong with thinking Pac is better or vice versa.

    Hell, nah.

    President? How he's only known for is breaking people's face. Are you serious? He is a fake senator.

    Thank you.....calling out a retired fighter who hasn't fought in 7 years,, what a man! what a bold move! It really is ammunition for people who don't like Manny
