Pacquiao is Henry Armstrong in this era, who is PBF?

[BritishBoxing92]

Larry Merchant once said that Pacquiao is the Henry Armstrong of our generation, but who do you think is Mayweather from the old timers? I'm not sure if Merchant meant as an overall image, or just the fighting style.

i dont know who PBF is of this era...

So winning titles at WW, LW and FW make you Armstrong? Please explain how Pac is Henry Armstong. Im asking YOUR knowledge on this subject. Explain it to me, without some sassy 5th grade girl response. Or a ****ty one line. How is Pac Henry Armstrong?

If you ever meet Dela Hoya, Hatton, or Cotto, they can tell you why Pacquiao is Armstrong.

i did...still waiting for you to explain how Sergio is a better name than anyone on Calzaghe's resume...go on...entertain us, clown

Better name? I said better fighter. **** the name. Danny Green just beat Jones is that a "good name" on his resume?

The best fighter on Calz resume is Kessler.

I think Martinez is better then Kessler.

I guess Merchant was talking about his fighting style and being able to do everything in the ring. After Merchant says that statement, Steward says that he can throw any type of punch and basically do anything in the ring.

Did Armstrong look for catchweights? No offense, serious question.

Pac only fought one catch weight fight

Just realized that was Cliff....lol. I like your stuff my dude.

Thanks. No disrespect to Pac, whose accomplishments are uniquely their opwn and fantastic. Hank probably couldn't navigate the field today like he did then. However, since you note the Welter (record) numbers, it's worth pointing out that it is another spot where Pac lags in comparisons. He's never had a great title reign anywhere.

Same can't be said of Mayweather. He had a GREAT reign at 130 before he moved up. He's had some lean years but his body of work is excellent.

I thought he meant accomplishments. Fighting style? Okay now we can talk. They are both short. Fast and hard hitters but the ,main difference is that Pac likes to be a boxer puncher. He likes to be on his toes, moving alot darting in and out. Armstrong was a bully who fought you thisclose.

Aot of boxers tried to run from him but that **** was not happening hed just hunt them down and beat they ass on the ropes. I think Armstrong is alot stronger. Pacs style is more falshy. Armstrong was a pitbull.

Armstrong has 19 WW title defenses.

At his peak he was 46-0. With 39 Knock outs dude.

Armstrong held 3 titles out of Boxings 8 classes at the SAME time. If not fop that draw he wouldve had a 4th.

Pac is no where near Hammering Henry.

Pac has a long way to go.

Maybe, but he is mad years above PWill, and slightly above Mayweather
