Better resume Pacquiao or Sugar Ray Leonard

Leonard, obviously. Greater by a wide margin in every aspect.

SRL top 2 wins are probably better than anything on Pac resumes, ie Duran, Hagler possibly, maybe even Benitez/hearns. But Pac beat Barrera twice, Morales twice, JMM x3 and thats 7 wins alone. Then you have hatton, Cotto, DLH, SSM...thats over 11 very big names in Pacs higher weights. Then you add the names that were probably very good but not too famous in the very lower weights. It depends how you judge things. You can say Turpin has a better resume than Pac as he beat SRR, but it dont work like that. That usually just means you couldn't beat them the first time, and out of those fights, Pac got beaten twice, drew once and knocked out cold. Leonard lost one close decision against a prime, top ten ATG in Duran. Anyway, Pac beat Marquez twice. Now, you're always bringing your dumb ass into threads like these with moronic arguments. Turpin beat Robinson once, then got stopped in the rematch. Apart from Robinson, he did nothing else that's relevant to this conversation. Leonard beat prime 72-1 Duran, a top ten ATG and arguably the greatest ever at 135. Leonard beat prime 32-0 Hearns, a top 20/30 ATG and arguably the greatest ever at 154 and a top ten great at 147. Leonard beat a prime 38-0 Benitez, a top 40/50 ATG. Leonard beat a 62-2 Hagler, who hadn't lost a fight in over a decade and is generally considered among the top 3 greatest at 160 and a top 20/30 ATG. Doesn't matter how many times Pac had to rematch guys that he couldn't beat the first time, it doesn't come close to that. They were all at, or still very near, their primes and all are greater fighters than the bunch Pac beat, lost to, and got knocked out by. The first Barrera fight was a great win, and the Marquez fights, if you consider any of them to really be proper wins, are also great, barring the third which was just a straight up clear loss for Pac. The Morales fights? Morales was coming off a series of losses, and the most embarrassing, one sided loss of his career going in against Pac after beating him. Apart from the Pac fight, Morales lost about 5 or 6 fights in a row and was going into the second Pac fight with only one win years and he would go on to lose every fight after that for years too. He was done.

Boxing history has always favored heavier weight divisions. Welterweight seems to be the starting point to be even considered great. With that said...Hagler, Hearns, and Duran in my opinion equals out to the troika of Marquez, Morales, and Barrera. Since Pac's career was more than just his Featherweight campaign, clearly he has the better resume than SRL. lol. :dead:

Pacs career isnt over yet and its just typical for people NOT TO APPRECIATE THE PRESENT if they grow old and would look up pac and the present greats, they wll surely appreciate what pac is.:boxing:

My vote actually goes for Pac. Out of the fab 4 Leonard has the weakest resume in my opinion. Yeah, he's the only guy to beat the other 3 of the fab 4, but let's not forget his antics. Waiting out Hagler and rushing Duran back into the ring after their first fight really takes a lot out of those wins in my opinion. Take into account the amount these guys fought too. Pacquiao is 55-5-2 and Leonard is only 36-3-1. Leonard only consistently fought for 7 years from 1977 to 1984. Pacquiao has fought continuously coming up on 20 years. Leonard was the ducker and dodger of the fab 4 era. Pacquiao takes all comers. To me I just can't really give Leonard credit. He had skills, but he'll never be a "great" in my book, I don't care what anybody says. Put Pacquiao resume up against any of the other fab 4 and I'll give them the edge over Pacquiao.

without question its SRL

This is laughable, what HOF has Pac beat? Barrera, Morales, JMM. sorry but they are no where near the upper elite ATGs. Cotto is a wild card some say hes a HOFer but he beat nobody to call himself a HOFer. Also looked bad in a lot of his fights. Honestly the only name in Pac resume to really boost it is Floyd, or really challenge himself to fight these bigger guys in 160. Same goes for Floyd. Absolutely, utterly ridiculous post. Barerra, Morales and Marquez are no where near the upper elite? Again, one of the worst posts In a while.

Lol, So barrera, morales, marquez, 8division, 4 lineals is nothing, accdg to ***** logic. Totally thats why they call it era, you cannot compare both just by resume. The thing is both men did not cherry pick any opponent theyve faced the best whom they can fight!

This goes to Leonard but it's not a hands down victory, Pacquiao has such depth in his career but Leonard has those BIG names in Hearns, Hagler and Duran.

^Paul Williams compared to Hearns? Were you smoking weed when you posted this? Watch Margarito vs Williams then Watch Pacquiao vs Margarito. And stop smoking weed it's bad for your brain.

This thread just inspired me to watch Leonard vs Hearns. Pulled pork anyone!

I voted for Manny because I felt bad for him and I like Manny. There it is cats out of the bag! :boobies:

SRL's resume is Godly. Duran, Hearns, Hagler, Benitez. No one in this era can touch it. But Manny's resume > anyone's of this era, so not too shabby. Pretty much.

it's obviously Leonard...but gonna vote for Pac anyway because Leonard is a cunt and he robbed Marvin ;)

I've got leonord his opponents were more of a problem

Ray>Pac>May I agree with that.

Shocker: diehard Fl*mo starts a thread for the sole purpose of seeing others rate a clearly greater talent over his idols chief rival. You're such an unbelievably transparent cunt. :lol1:

Ray>Pac>May

Leonard IMO. Pacquiao's resume is the best of this era though.
