Manny Pacquiao's greatness and legacy comes from very astute and smart matchmaking.Manny Pacquiao claims credit for beating a washed up Erik Morales twice,even though Zahir Raheem was able to do so before Pacquiao did,three knockdowns and he still couldn't beat Juan Manuel Marquez the first time around and the second time around Marquez outboxed and outfought Pacquiao and was robbed of a fairly convincing victory,three fights later against the limited David Diaz,the shot weight drained Oscar De La Hoya and overrated Ricky Hatton and now Pacquiao is apparently an all time great
I think it shows how much standards in boxing are slipping when Manny Pacquiao is regarded as an ATG.The guy hasn't improved all that much as a fighter and the moment he does fight a good fighter with a working pulse,he will be exposed,just as he was against Marquez twice.Comment

Pacman and Money started there boxing careers at the same weight...And by the way Manny has fought one, drained fighter in ODLH (147) and a soon to be drained fighter in Cotto (What is it 144/145)...So we're waiting for a legitimate WW bout.

Pac is a once in a lifetime boxer.
An all-time-great of the highest magnitude.
There will never be a flyweight champion like Pac who can move up 10 division, get 6 titles, bag 4 lineals, emerge as the top of his fab4 era and still have some more to fight guys at WW.
The type of opposition that Pac had to get to where he is... nothing short of ARMSTRONG-LIKE.Comment

the reason why he looks so fast is because the people he has fought in his last three fights. diaz, de la and hatton are not known for their quick hands. matter of fact you can call all of them slow. dont compare what marquez did to pac when he fought mayweather. JMM fought a dude that wasnt going to kill himself making weight (unlike de la hoya did against pac) and all of those three boxers speed put together that pac fought are not as fast as floyd is. we going to see nov 14.Comment
