    To be honest, all that matters is if the fighter is an ATG and Pac is one for sure. The exact number will always be up for debate but Manny will always be mentioned among the greats in the sport.

    Side note: Boxing is like the hardest sport to construct a top 50 list. There are so many factors to consider.

      2nd tier ATG's not the likes of Ali and SRR.

        Oh and Manny hasnt beatin JMM yet, hence why he kept rematching him.
        TBF i and a lot of others had Clottey winning the Cotto fight.

          I'm estimating, based on other, more knowledgeable people's lists. I don't keep a list.

            I don't think anyone does and it would change all the time, would take a lot of time and consideration to make a real list, most fans have a general idea how close they would put fighters to others though.

              Him and whitaker could have gone either way


              Having lost to prime undefeated tito, shane, floyd, plus losses to hopkins and manny are nothing to be ashamed of..

              Manny has lost to jmm and should have lost at least twice to him, maybe even three times depending on how you score the 1st fight..

              Manny got ko'd by no namers early in career..

              Manny lost to morales....

              Manny got put out face first, nobody ever put oscar to sleep and he fought the best at their very best... Something floyd and manny cant say.. FIGHTING THE BEST AT THEIR BEST

                Just curious, I probably would have estimated similarly at one time, but the more I think think about it the more I wonder, I wouldn't have issue with a lsit that ranked him outside the top 50.

                  Ali, SRL, SRR, Whitaker, Duran, Henry Armstrong, hearns etc

                  He is more of a top 50 of ATG
                  Why Hearns

                  I agree with the others but what has Hearns done to be rated so highly?

                    Are you high!?? GTFO Pacquiao is a top 50 fighter, but no way in hell is he in or near the top 10... So your saying he's better than Willie Pep or Henry Armstrong? What about Ezzard Charles or Tommy Hearns?

                    Sheeet *******s and Floydiots never cease to amaze me!

                      Doesnt matter, a loss is a loss. Their are other fighters out their that he could have fought. That was a BS fight that should have never happened. Also Margarita and Shane were BS fights too.
