He is a mentally-tough fighter.
His early losses only served to improve him when others would have fallen permanently.
Yet, despite his success, he has remained unassuming.Comment

green k for you amigoOriginally posted by Cuauhtémoc1502 View PostThe greatest fighter I have ever seen and I have been watching boxing since the early 80's. There has never been a greater fighter in my lifetime and I think he even matches up against the all time guys I wasn't old enough to see.
The way he absolutely destroyed Margarito was amazing. He was so much faster but his power was impressive. He moves in and out so fast and his shots carry so much weight. Even Cotto, who hit Marg flush time and time again, didn't have the power Pac had.
I'm Mexican and proud of my Mexican warriors but Pac is the best fighter I have ever witnessed in my lifetime.
Props to Marg for being a tough SOB, fighting with a broken orbital bone and not quitting or going down when most mortal men would have. Marg is an animal.
Filipino's, you haven't had many great boxers but you might have one of the greatest of all time and when it's all said and done, maybe even the greatest fighter to ever lace them up.
Congrats........

Whitaker is still the greatest of my lifetime.Comment

Not to rain on your parade, but it's Margarito dude...The same guy with 6 losses. He never had skill.. Never was that great. He was just big, and his usually great chin, never stop style. Slow hands, not accurate.
All Marg has is a chin.... Thats it.
So if you are going to say Pac is the best you have ever seen, please don't base it off of this fight. It makes you look kinda dumb.Comment

Cotto and Hatton will/should not be in the HOF.... Well with Cotto is borderline...Hatton? GTFOH...Originally posted by puga View PostLast edited by jrosales13; 11-15-2010, 10:14 AM.Comment

Pacquiao is 31 years old and he's an amateur actor, decent singer, has just won a boxing world championship and is running for President of the Philipines...
At 51, he could be made Pope. Is he a Roman Catholic?
