Comments Thread For: Manny Pacquiao leads the way as new names announced on IBHOF ballot

First post here on BoxingScene Forums. I just want to say that the selection for 2025 is weak. It's hard to decide who among the nominees are deserving.

Pacquiao lost to Ugas, Horn and Singsurat. Won his titles at 147 and 154 at a catchweight. Arguably lost to Thurman, Broner, Marquez and Larios. King Floyd destroyed him. Ducked Alvarez, Martinez, Valero, Alvarado.

Garcia lost to Martin. Ducked Lomachenko.

Porter arguably lost to Ugas.

Bute lost to Alvarez. Failed a drug test.

If you're trying to say that Pacquiao isn't a legit Hall of Famer. Just leave your post count at one. What a load of horseshlt. Just because you're on Floyds nuts doesn't mean you have to deny that Pacquiao was a great fighter. Don't worry , we won't tell Floyd . He'll let you keep sucking it.

King Santa cleans Mikey's clock at 126.

118, 122 and 130 were Santa Cruz's best weights. He gets in on that resume alone. The 130 title was just icing on the cake.

Santa Cruz titles were vacate only 118 wasn't. Also his 130 was wba regular. And he did nothing at 118 or 122 or 126 or 130. And got beat up by Frampton.

Sure buddy, I love how people tend to forget that Frampton was ranked #8 on the Ring P4P list when Terremoto beat him. Just a meh win though right? Bwahaha....

Except Frampton is **** himself. Also he was never a p4p.

"Never P4P" Lmao.... Anything to try to discredit the 4 weight Mexican legend

Check the 2016 rankings bucko.

Lol I'm talking Ring Magazine. But ability was Frampton was never p4p. But thing about Santa Cruz is that he kept ducking all the champs in his division that's why he won vacate titles.

2 of his 8 divisions, 126 and 140, he only won The Ring belt. Another 2 of those 8 divisions, 147 and 154, he won at a catchweight. He never unified unlike King Floyd and other champions of today. Never won lineal at 122, 135 and 154. He almost lost against the Japanese kickboxer in the exhibition.

So what ? None of that means that Pacquiao wasn't a great fighter. To argue that Pacquiao isn't a Hall of Fame talent is just willful ignorance. You don't have to like the guy but denying that he was a great fighter disqualifies you from being taken seriously. Apparently you are just a Floyd fan instead of a boxing fan.

Still no nod for John H.Stracey who beat the man who beat the man in a very hostile Mexico city bull ring. Okay he only had one successful defence, but defended against the best availible in Hedgeman Lewis & Carlos Palomino & picked up the WBC championship when it actually ment something. This was in the two belt era when the best fought the best & the best earned the ring magazine belt which he did, so with names like Porter & Bute being banded about surely a nomination is due!!.......
