Where does Manny Pacquiao rank among all-time boxing greats?
>>
Top 500

But not cracking the top 100
>>
Ali
Robinson
PACQUIAO

>>67558305
379 seems about right

Top 3

Depends on how you want to judge him. He won a lot of belts in light weight classes that didn't have great fighters, and he often didn't defend his titles. I think he has won titles in more weight classes than anyone else, and you can't ignore that accomplishment. But he was too small and has had too many bad fights late in his career to put him in the top ranks of all boxers all-time. If you limit the question to 'pound for pound' boxers, I think he loses out to the likes of Sugar Ray Leonard or even Rocky Marciano (very light for a heavyweight).

Personally, I will remember Pacquiao as a great fighter, but he won't be in my top 10 or even 25 of all time.
>>
Are there any other famous Filipino athletes, like outside of the Philippines?
>>
only 8 division champion
only 5 division lineal champion
Moved up through 10 weight classes
countless wars with several other ATG's

His resume is likely to never be repeated again.


>>67558385
Nonito Donaire is a HOF boxer as well.
>>
>>67558385
dave bautista

he's an actor now and most people stopped watching wwe during his time. He had a brief MMA career.
>>
Over Mayweather
>>
Bradley loss due to robbery

Marquez loss due of fighting careless being under pressure to "deliver" because of bradley loss

Mayweather loss because that faggot chose location, ref, was being on hometurf, holding/clinching/ducking below beltline troughout the fight

Pacquiao is the greater fighter and all time top 5

It’s just an exaggerated statement made by envious people who know that most fans will take it at face value without looking at the facts.
>>
He's top five at hating the fucking gays
>>
Even with his losses I still think he is great, winning titles as low as like 122lbs all the way to junior middle weight.
>>
>>67558520
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>
>>67558198

pound for pound the most exciting fighter ever.

and desu his resume is probably the best out of any fighter ever. albeit with losses to some.
>>
>>67558344
more great fighters in the lighter classes than the heavier ones pal
>>
2nd best fighter of the generation. Only 8 division champion ever, 2009 Pacquaio was one of the best p4p fighters of all time, Probably top 20ish all time, give or take a few spots.
>>
>>67558319

I agree

wasn't a robbery. paquiao was taking most rounds off until the very end. even if it was a robbery, he would have deserved it.
>due of fighting careless
which is a fault as a fighter
>Mayweather loss because that faggot chose
pacqiuao showed no indication on having any chance no matter the situation. maidana fucking look better than him and they have the same style.

Top 20. One of the most entertaining fighters ever. He pushed through a technically flawed fighting style and won his fights through sheer grit and willpower. You simply can't teach aggression like he showed in the ring and we'll probably never see the like again. Like Juan Manuel Marquez says @33:05 - "Great fighter". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NSn3wWoKz-k

Definitely an all-time great. Very few have accomplished what he has in the sport, while fighting guys that were bigger than him and were in the their prime.

But the biggest reason he's an all-time great is because he was an entertaining fighter, and fought everybody that they put in front of him.

A lot of fans will love him because of that; he just lived, and loved, to fight.

Mayweather has a similar resume with the difference being that he never lost. Plus you can add Pac and Canelo to his

Mayweather didnu nothing in the fight. Pacquiao won.

He'll be more fondly remembered than Mayweather in 10 years time. More exciting fights, more dramatic story, more impressive achievements.
>>
>>67564252
What fighter in the top 10 hasn't?

Nobody is going to say Mayweather doesn't have a great resume but Manny's beats his pretty easy.

All of my keks

Nonito is a one dimensional boxer who was exposed by Rigondeaux

>>67582469
What does that matter? HOF is based on accomplishments which he has.

Fucking HOF and ATG list isn't a H2H list idiots.
