Even if Manny beats Spence how does he ass SRL?

Depends on what your criteria is for ATG. Some view moving up weight more highly. Others think longevity should be rewarded. There just weren’t many ATGs in Pacquiao’s era. I think Breadman said he’d have a case for GOAT if he beat Crawford so beating Spence can’t be too far behind.

pac and it's not even close. SRL resume is great but its pales compare to pac specially from 105 upto jr middleweight.

SRL has the prototypical quality over quantity resume. It's literally insane. Manny has the impressive rise through weights but wins are wins and SRL got those at the highest level.

SRL beat HOF ATG fighters in their Prime and dominated most then moved up and came out of retirement and fought arguably beat the greatest Middleweight of all time. Add that to the fact that Duran is the greatest lightweight of all time. Please explain how any current or past fighter of the past 3 decades pass this guy???? ITS almost disrespectful how boxing fans disregard how significant those wins were Because he came from straw weight, plain and simple. He's always been the small man and always took the toughest challenges. Ray Leonard's wins are amazing no doubt. But he waited for Hagler to get old and pulled some retirement bullshit so fought a whole lot less than Manny This is a great debate though no doubt. Its razor thin

"Surpass" My bad
