Watching that old Pacquiao ko highlight, young Pac-Man didnt seem destined greatness

[miron_lang]

Pac's 1st title was againts Sasakul at age 19. (Thailand)

Sasakul was a hero in Thailand and was the Lineal Flyweight champion.


His 2nd was againts Ledwabba. ( Nevada )

Ledwabba was supposed to get rid of him and was considered to be the best 122lbs fighter at the time ( Same period Barrera and Morales went to 126)




How is that "out of nowhere"?

How is that "out of nowhere"?

It was out of nowhere for strictly floyd fans. They want to pretend they are the only knowledgeable boxing fans in the world, besides Roman Moreno already shut this thread down with this post:

Yes he was a HOF'er before Ariza came on board. It is ridiculous to say he wasn't.

Before Ariza he was already a 4 division champ.

Before Ariza he was already 3 division lineal champ.

Before Ariza he was the first fighter in the history of the sport. To win a lineal Flyweight title and lineal featherweight title. And, those are 2 of the original 8 weight-classes. That's over 100 years of history.

Beat arguably the best fighter in 4 different divisions while skipping 2 whole divisions before Ariza came on the team.

Had a win over an ATG in his prime in Barrera. Dominating victory.

Had wins over HOF'er JMM. And, wins over top rated Sasakul and Ledwaba.

He had already accomplished historic feats before Ariza came on board.

"We will never know"? No. We do know. Only some like to hate or be ignorant to the fact.
