THE MOST IMPROVED FIGHTER OF THE DECADE: Manny Pacquiao

[Horus]

So that rules Floyd out then seeing as he was retired for 2 of those years.

You obviously do not know how to count since Mayweather was not retired for 2 years!

[Glamour Puss]

How?
Half of the decade he wasnt even ranked!

That doesn't matter. Packy's done more in 4 years than Floyd did in 15.

[Dirk Diggler UK]

How?
Half of the decade he wasnt even ranked!

Probably cos he did more in the last half decade than Floyd did in the whole thing.

[Ch@mpBox@PR]

DECADE = 10 YEARS !
For half of the decade he wasnt even ranked !!!

How do you become fighter of the decade if for half of the decade you wasnt even ranked?

Not possible!

Why didnt all the boxing experts rank Pacquiao higher than Mayweather

If Pacquiao is the Fighter of the decade?



What he did become is the most improved fighter of the Decade.

Hey Jackass, P4P list are ficticious, Imaginay, sel opinion list, not facts or legit rankings!!!


And like that other poste said, loyd was retire or 2 yeas he cant e conside or fighter of the decade!

[Obdeboondocks]

this theory makes sense in the most basic sense. these fighters' records must be looked at on all angles though and if we objectively look at who manny beat and who may beat, there shouldn't be a question about it. but then again we can just have them fight each other in late spring.

[Heru]

Mayweather won't be able to win Fighter of the Decade off potential like Roy did. I have a hard time seeing Mayweather getting more votes from boxing writers than Pacquiao.

Pacquiao's strength of schedule is harder than Mayweather's. Pacquiao=Florida Gators; Mayweather=Utah Utes

Floyd is gonna be pissed when he sees Pacquiao winning that.

So that rules Floyd out then seeing as he was retired for 2 of those years.

I dont get how he was ranked in ayear he didnlt fight.
I don't get how he was number 1 in 2004 either.
He didn't do **** in those two years.

Fighter of the Decade

2000-2010

Now since we are using the RING magazine titles to give Manny Pacquiao his 7th title in his 7th weight class, You guys should have no problem in using the RING Magazine rankings on top 10 fighters in the last decade to determine Who the Fighter of the ENTIRE Decade should be.

PACQUIAO IS THE MOST IMPROVED FIGHTER OF THE DECADE.

BECAUSE HE DID NOT DOMINATE THE WHOLE DECADE!!

And The most improved Fight of the Decade!!

I think the ts is doing this for arguements sake, because without a doubt Pac > Mayweather overall.
