Roy Jones Jr or Manny Pacquiao, who was more talented?

[VG_Addict]

Roy and Pacquiao were both once in a lifetime talents who accomplished things in boxing no one had ever done before, and no one might ever do again.

But, who was more talented between the two?

[diplo]

What's your definition of 'talent'?

[GrandpaBernard]

Roy

manny is the result of hard work and athleticism

manny learned a lot under roach and made major improvements

did Roy change for the better that much throughout his career

[hugh grant]

roy was the more talented, pacman was the greater fighter..

Pac is the best roach ever trained so I'd say pac

[Silence]

Pac is more impressive guy. He beat much bigger guys at their natural weight.

[Haka]

RJJ is a proven massive unhonourable steroid cheat and ducked Michalczewski. Pac is also su****ious but testing was much more strict in Pac's however Pac fought every risky fight with asterixes since '09.


So pick your poison... My answer is NEITHER.

[just the facts]

Pac is more impressive guy. He beat much bigger guys at their natural weight.

The question was who was more talented. I know you’re not the sharpest knife in the drawer but try to keep up. Read slowly if you need to.

The obvious answer is Jones but Manny isn’t far behind as did much more with the talent he had.

[HeadShots]

Pac made it to 140 with pure athleticism.


He boxed with Mayweather to a contested decision with pure skills. His other athleticism was gone by then and injured


He straight up outboxed young undefeated ww champ Keith Thurman with pure skills when he was 42



what did Roy do once his reflexes were gone?


Pac is not only more athletic

He was also more skilled

[SplitSecond]

What’s the difference? Pacquiao was a little sturdier with thicker bones. Roy had more swag. One learned on the job to be a rugged fighter, the other came up through the school system. Both were fast as sht and super athletic.

I’ll lean to Pacquiao because he had heavier hands, took a punch better, was a world champ at 18 and still a champ till he lost at 43.
