Sugar Ray Robinson, Meet Manny Pacquiao

[The Jackal]

That was a good article. I think he has a place in the ATG list im not 100% sure where though but Pac has earned it

Yes but between Feather & welter some great fighters have passed threw he'd be able to hold his own with some of the stylist but the likes of Robinson would KO him in IMO.

IF you were to put him with the best feathers of ATG what kind of a list would you come up with?

if he beat hatton and may he would be the G.O.A.T

[SkillspayBills]

what do u hate? a great fighter who is not black mentioned on the ATG list?

pacquiao has acomplished somethign we rarely see.

trust me,a argument could be made.

that goes for u too DR. DRE.

What does being an African-American have to do with anything? Woah, I forgot NAPO is quite literally one of the most moronic and intellectually inept individuals on this board. Pac is accomplished of course, but TOP 3 ATG!? GET THE **** OUT OF HERE.

ID douth it in my IMO the publicity is getting us all carried away id would put Pacquiao up with the best feathers & he would give Willie Pep a good fight but P4P he'd come out on the wrong end on points to a lot of the greats if were to Mayweather he'd be certainly a modern legend glad we've witness some of his greatness but the likes of Robinson + Pep + Armstrong & Benny Leonard would be too good stylistitly that's just my IMO.

It would be a great fight between him & Armstrong but Armstrong would wear him down.

Manny should be cosidered an ATG, especially in the fashion he did in last night fight!

[BoxingScribe]

Many is no where near a ATG. Oscar was SHOT. Roach basically said it and put his own salary up that Oscar couldnt pull the trigger and was right. Oscar has taken punches from Tito, Hopkins, Quartey, Mosley, Vargas, etc, and he let someone who had no business at 147 STOP him. That is a clear indication about what kind of fighter he is right now. He should fight Margarito to regain some dignity but he cant retire off this fight right here.

I have said it before an I will say it again. The minute Manny stops fighting mexican opponents he is gonna get his ass handed to him.

[JaNnO]

wtf are you saying, even morales gets top 49 ATG.

To mention Pacquiao in the same breath as Robinson, Armstrong, Pep, Ali, etc is sacriledge to the sport. He did a great thing bye beating a SHOT fighter 2 weight classes higher than his last fight, but lets leave it there. I am taking NOTHING away from Manny's greatness. He showed heart that no other fighter is willing to do (with the exception of the multi-division fighting Williams), but lets not get carried away. Pacquiao aint top 5, top 20, hell he aint even top 50. He is definately the best fighter now even if Mayweather returns, but I am not about to go there with the ATG ****. Best fighter of all time from the Pacific Rim, YES. ATG, ABSOLUTELY NOT.

beating old shot fighters makes you an atg? hahahahah!
