Today's Manny Pacquiao is the MOST SKILLED Southpaw ever

[Shabba Rank$]

Going just by accomplishments, definitely.

7-Division Champ
Fighter of the Decade
Fighter of the year x4
so on and so on...

Hagler is a close runner-up only because of his induction into the hall of fame which is a given for Pac anyway.

Ahhh.

Gotcha.

*******s have a sick sense of humour..

I don't think you dudes know what skills is.

[SplitSecond]

what's impressive to me is that double-triple left lead to set up a right

skillful stuff

[southcentralcar]

all he has are power and stamina..from roids possibly.

[hugh grant]

More accomplished than Hagler?

Do we put Hagler on a pedestal because we grew up watching him, and his bald head stands out?
How can Hagler be compared to Pac accomplishment wise? Sorry im not being hard on you as i think you addressed your post.

pacquiao sure looks good on paper, he knows how to cheat history

Really, he is. Pernell didn't have offense like Manny. Pernell just relied on running away while punching. Marvin wasn't incredibly skilled either, he relied on great conditioning and endurance.

I've never seen a fighter use the southpaw stance like Manny does. The way he uses it to set up his power shots, how he throws "crossover punches" as if he was playing basketball, and he has a great right hand now.

He's the most well-versed southpaw of all time.

Wow this thread is disgrace. Your descriptions of Pernell and Hagler show how little you know about boxing outside of Pacquiao.

Man Pacquiao is not even the most skilled southpaw active even today.

Whitaker was a very underrated offensive fighter. He had a great right jab and was a tremendous body puncher.
