Who has the better resume Sugar Ray Leonard or Manny Pacquiao?

[Rick Grimes]

Do you think SRL could dominate Pacs opponents like Pac did is more fair? Pac is the best today and is more ahead then SRL was of his day. Pac stands more alone today, with no one beside him.

SRL would dominate anyone on Pacquiao's resume, Pacquiao wouldn't dominate everyone on SRL's. Pacquiao doesn't stand alone, Mayweather is right beside him but he turned the fight down over a little matter of steroid testing. What an ATG.

Hey Hugh Grant, can you please explain to me how beating Barrera, Morales, Marquez, Cotto, Margarito, etc. is more impressive than beating Hearns, Hagler, Benitez, and Duran?

Stop trying to be a salesman and trying to convince yourself. Many pro boxers think Pac is GOAT material. Paul Mallignagi for one thinks it for starters. RJJ said it about 3 fights ago.
Historians think it. I dont know any historian who thinks SRL is.

This guys is classic, can't get any funnier then this.

And everyone thinks you're a moron.

Very seldom will you find ANY legit boxing historian claim Manny Pacqiauo is greater than Ray Leonard. I'm sorry, that's just how it is.

I know, I will literally laugh at anybody who picks Pac in this poll. There isn't a fighter from today's era that can approach what Leonard did.

There you have it.

Two different era's of boxing...

Ray has fought some great fighters, so has Pac. Both in differnt era's of the game.

Why does it matter? I mean really? You that hard up for a so called "LOL"?...

Cause lord knows, there are two things Pac just can never win...Fantasy fights, and resume slugfest...

Also: In terms of the bold print, if you truly feel that way, why would you just make it about Pac? Just to get you LOL I guess...Why not make the poll include Floyd, B-Hop, Roy, Tito, Oscar, Pernell? There are plenty of fighter people consider great in this era...Not just Pac. That would turn into to much of a boxing disscusion I guess.

Anyway, I went with Ray (on the poll).

The humour has lost it's novelty.

It's more frustration now.

[HandSpeed303]

That might have something to do with the fact Sugar Ray Leonards era is 10x better than this era?

If Tommy Hearns, Marvin Hagler and Roberto Duran were in this era, Manny Pacqiuao wouldn't be standing alone.

Hell, if Wilfred Benitez was in this era Manny Pacqiauo wouldn't be standing alone.

Sugar Ray Robinson beat the much stronger competiton than Manny Pacqiauo, it's not even an argument.

See this here, this is exactly what I was talking about!^^^

2 different era's of the sport! In my eye's, Ray's was better...By far (in reguard to Pac)!

Nice post Iron.

The hagler fight was pick em and SRL spluttered and wasnt dominant. I dont think SRL would dominate Pacs opponents like Pac did. Thats why after Pac destroyed Margarito people were saying its quite possible Pac is the GOAT now. They couldnt visualize SRL or Duran do those things.

On the other hand, most people can see Pac would be favoured of beating Duran, Benitez, and Hearns as well.

[Turok2]

the ts answered his own damn question lol...but i agree SRL resume ****s on pac's

[CarlosG815]

I personally do not think Pacquiao is skilled enough to even be a top guy in Leonard's day. Duran, Hagler, Hearns... They all had tremendous skills and Manny is just.... Not that skilled to me. I don't know any other way to put it, it's just not there to me. He has been marketed in a way that makes him look better than he really is, but it's more weak opposition than dominating skills.

Call me crazy but that's how I see it. Prime Oscar, Shane, Marquez, and today Floyd Mayweather all handle him easily, Oscar and Shane by knockout, and Marquez/Mayweather by unanimous decision.
