Pacquiao the Dominant fighter of Decade

[the330ballers]

Larry Merchant is now comparing Mannie Pacquiao with the great Henry Armstrong. Other's have mentioned Mannie's name with the likes of Sugar Ray Robinson. This proves that the Pacquiao legacy is now entertwined with the greats of all time. If he's now in discussion as the GOAT, then surely he is the dominant fighter of the decade. Not even close. Even the undefeated Calzaghe and Mayweather aren't getting this level of props. Any boxing journalist that seriously talked about Mayweather as being in the same league as Armstrong and Robinson would get laughed out of the sport and end up here on this site as just another common nuthugger.

Your thoughts?

its not his skil its his legacy its his record and who hes beaten. yeah sure most everybody had marquez winning by 1 or 2 points but his record shows he got the best of morales barrera marquez and now de la hoya...

skillwise mayweathers special.. he would still be number 1 p4p if he was still fighting today. but for him to be remembered hed needa fight cotto.. margarito.. and whoever else
