You seriously think a brawler can get through the resume Pacquiao has and move up several weight divisions?
    How many slick fighters in their prime did Manny beat?

    Manny's resume is the most overrated resume in the last 20 years. People act like he beat all the great fighters in their prime and beat every single style.

    Manny fights the same style every time. Either the fighter is a one dimensional fighter, or he is weight drained, past prime, shot. etc.

    Clottley - B/C level fighter.
    Cotto - Past prime and was damaged.
    Hatton - Overrated and was damaged by Floyd.
    DLH - A 142 lbs DLH had no chance of beating a prime Manny and he was way past his prime.
    Morales - Beat his ass so bad that he made him cry and made excuses. He still doesn't give him credit for beating his ass. He beat Morales after Morales was schooled for 12 rounds and didn't win one single round.
    JMM - JMM made him look average and very sloppy after Roach kept talking about the new and improve Manny.

    If Floyd had this resume, would the same people be saying Floyd is top 10 because of his resume and skills like the *******s say on here?

      I think Pac is a great fighter. What his fans need to undertstand is that doesnt mean you're highly skilled.

      **** I might get flack for this I dont even think Armstrong was highly skilled and hes a great fighter.

        But just being a pure boxer you leave it up to the judges to see if they can score correctly. Pac knows how to fight, along with his boxing ability.
        Manny is the best brawler in the world, he's not the best boxer in the world.

                  Who do you consider highly skilled right now in boxing?

                    What does that have to do with anything? And you still haven't replied to the topic.. Just want to get everyone's input without the hate.

                      People who say that Pacquiao has no boxing skills are clueless as you cant be an elite boxer without basic boxing skills. People who say that Pacquiao possesses great boxing skills are clueless, hes no pernell whitaker or SRL.

                      Pacquiaos boxing skills have definately improved over time and he has a decent set of skills. In answer to the question his skills are underrated by some and overrated by others.

                      Pacquiao was outboxed by JMM but they were still both very close fights. Plus theres no shame in that considering JMM is probably the second best counterpuncher in the business.
