I get the same feeling on this forum. People downplay Pacquiao as a fighter on here, Personally I think Pacquiao is one of the most unbelievable fighters on the planet right now, I mean he is number 2 lb 4 lb, and he has definitely been making a case for number 1. Look at Pacquiao's resume..It is stacked with back to back to back difficult fights and he has performed very very VERY well for us fans. As well as the fact that he has the weight of an entire country on his shoulders, he carries that pride well and people gotta respect him for that. Manny Pacquiao is fantastic. If Manny Pacquiao absolutely wrecks JMM I would be disgusted if people come on this forum trying to down play that win and or degrade JMM as a fighter. These are 2 fighters that are rated in the top 3 or so lb 4 lb. That is what you call being or acting like the lb 4 lb #1. :good
I think aside from his legions of fanatics, one reason they do not give him enough props is his being a one-dimensional, limited fighter, who should be beaten by a superior boxer.
