Not for nothing but I find it very hard to believe that you know anything about his early comp except what you see on boxrec. If you do, great. Educate me on his opponents amateur careers or lack of if you know about it.

but of all time?
I would lean towards Pacquiao still, his victories and accomplishments outweigh Conn's in my opinion. I do respect Conn's accomplisments and he was a great, but what was his world title fight record? Something like 4-2!
If you go back and look at who would have been the title holder back in Conn's time, there are very few that Pac has fought. It would probably equal a similar amount to Conn in reality. Even the lineal championships are suss today and don't equal the number one guy.
It is very hard to tell the story from title numbers today compared to older eras. They simply don't compare in any way, shape or form.
