Pac is an awesome fighter who happens to be southpaw. Top 10 p4p in case we forgot. He is a very good sotuhpaw. He isn't going to get "exposed". Everyone knows what he is about already anyway. He shouldn't be fighting at 130 though. If anything gets exposed, it will be his size. His tenacity, power, and speed is enough to get him by though right now. There's no denying his natural skills.
I wish I'd seen this before I made my second post.
Pac is not a great south paw. Any fighter with a solid basic ground to work from will give him hell. You will see again in the future, he will be exposed.
Rockin' :boxing:
Right. Because his competition has been so weak in the past. I mean, Barerra, Marquez and Morales are all unschooled brawlers who were just to inexperienced to deal with Pacquiao's unorthodox style. You can keep waiting for Pacquiao to get exposed if you want, but it's not a good idea.
Anyone who can go 1-1-1 with three guys who can very fairly be rated in the top-ten pound for pound is the real deal. Especially when you remember that his record against those guys should be 2-1 and he the lone loss was a razor-thin decision.

here goes
2. Hagler
3. Whittaker
4. Wright

Macho Camacho Is The Most Forgot About Guy... He Was Great In His Prime..on His Best Day He Was Everyting That Floyd Mayweather Is.. Camacho Had Brilliant Boxing Moves And Skills. The Macho From Say 1981 To 1984 Was Awesome
I agree, he was very slick. Im not saying this b/c he is my uncle but, Macho could have been one of the best boxers of all time if he would have been more dedicated to the sport.
1. Winky Wright
2. Manny Pacquiao
3. Antonio Tarver
4. Chris Byrd
5. Zab Judah
6. Cory Spinks
7. Wayne Braithwaite
8. Mikkel Kessler
9. Ivan Calderon
10. Joel Casamayor

Manny... a lefty?
Good list.
I'd put Corey Sanders in top 10, in place of Casamayor.
I would put Jirov as number 7 instead of Braithwaite.
Freddie Miller, Lew Tendler, Flash Elorde, Vicente Saldivar, Tiger Flowers, Duilio Loi, George Chaney...just a few more of the better southpaws in boxing history.
Also, William "Bendigo" Thompson was one of the most popular & most skilled fighters of the bareknuckle eras, and he supposedly spent the vast majority of his time fighting out of the southpaw stance.

How did you get on, by the way? Stretch wasn't a bad fighter (came along as an unknown amateur and knocked out 67-0 George Collins), he just didn't take boxing serious and was more concerned about his looks.
The toughest southpaws that I faced were Bronco McCart, Corey Johnson and Gary Stretch. Havent seen enough guys fighting now to name the best of the bunch for present time.
Rockin' :boxing:
You fought Gary Stretch?? You mean Gary Stretch the male model? The former glamour boy of British boxing? Lol, nice one!
thats not in any order
fair enough, they were numberd, so i figured and was suprised that youd have zab above winky but whatever
also, kessler isnt a southpaw
