Does the win over Cotto include that it was a 145 pound welterweight championship? That's what I thought. This doesn't compare to what Armstrong did but I'm done arguing with fools that want to believe it because of what Merchant said(as if it's gospel). If Merchant had said something complimentary about Mayweather most of the same people that think his word is bond would call him an old fool. I know that's how the game is played. Especially when I see how Max Kellerman, who is every bit as good as Merchant, is hated on here because he respects Mayweather's skills. And that lineal crap is the biggest bunch of BS I've seen in boxing today. There are too many variables surrounding it. Hell, Leon Spinks was a lineal heavyweight champion. In no way does it represent the best fighters in the division.
    Pac is the Henry Armstrong of this era because of his jumping from weight classes are remarkable. ALso, he beat three different fighters in three different weight divisions in the span of 1 year.

    Even much more remarkable is the fact that Pac not just beat his bigger opponents but KOed them.

      Pacquiao is Paquiao. He'll never be Henry Armstrong.

        Well, u have a point. But, if that's ur statement then Henry Armstrong will never be the Pacman as well. I bet, Henry Armstrong would love to become the Pacman.

            Well, u never know. Pac's accomplishments are legendary as well, only fighter to win 4 lineal titles in 4 diff weight divisions. 7 division titlist. 3 time Ring Fighter of the year. "Greatest Asian Fighter ever and Greatest left handed fighter ever"- Bert Sugar. Faced adversity of becoming a star in the US because he is asian but now beloved by millions fans, Americans, FIlipinos, etc., around the world.

                  If you say pac is out side the TOP 10. Give me 10 names that accomplish more than Pacquiao and lets debate on it.


                  only 3 guys are clear cut above Pac and that is SRR, Armtrong and Ali.


                  so you only need 7 names. Name it.

                  You talking about the Ring Nominated greatest Light Heavy weight ever? You talking about a guy who beat the avoided Charlie Burley TWICE. You talking about a guy who beat Moore, Bivens, Marshall and Maxim????

                  Are you ****ing serious right now? You talking about the guy who beat Joe Louis?

                  The guy who beat Jersey Joe Walcott.

                  Had 2 wars with Rocky Marciano? Are you SERIOUS.

                  Pac is greater then Charles. EXPLAIN IT.
                  This how the convo went.

                      against hagler maybe but, he still chose to trade with him to at least win the round. SRL was no runner...The *****s on this site are ridiculous.
