    So it's very possible to pick up belts from the weaker champions in each weight class without ever cleaning out any division.

    That's how Pacquiao picked up a lightweight title for example. By beating David Diaz.
    real talk and he AVOIDED ZAHIR RAHEEM who had JUST beat erik morales by UD
    and i remember in the telecast jim lampley particularly sayin' that manny paqcuiao SHOULD AVOID ZAHIR RAHEEM "bc their styles don't mesh" or some coward **** like that. and what did manny do? he DUCKED HIM

          WHAT DIVISION DID PACQUIAO CLEAN OUT FROM 135, 140 & 147 TO JUSTIFY HIM FIGHTING 4 FIGHTERS ***13))) TIMES?
          #mostpeopledontknow****aboutboxing
          If you had more than one brain cell, you would know that I brought up SRR just to point out how ridiculous that comment of yours was. Then you came up with equally ridiculous post saying Manny hasn't cleaned 135, 140 and 147 thus he's not ATG.

          What you're doing is setting some ****** standards, and if a fighter you criticize don't meet them, they're not ATG in your book.

          Manny Pacquiao is a 8 division world champion, fighter of the decade and widely considered as one the best fighters of the last 20 years. Every self respecting boxing historian and fan know that he's an ATG and your ******ed standards won't change that.

          You don't know **** about boxing because like I said, you're narrow minded and biased. However, you're too damn dense to realize that.

          notice how when he started making money and his body matured his weight went up...after he won the title at 112 and lost it he skipped 115 and 118 altogether....he had better living conditions etc.


          He does have a point...Manny hasnt come close to cleaning out any division
          See the post above ^^

          And I don't care that he turned pro to support his family, it's completely irrelevant to the discussion.

          What is relevant is the fact that a kid who weighed 98 pounds when he was starting, won titles in 8 divisions, fought and bullied men that were much more naturally bigger than him.

          Manny Pacquiao is an ATG and this ridiculous conversation is over.

            genius floyd fans said Pac don't make his own decision.

            arum tells him who to fight and who not to fight.

            how did Pac avoided all those fighter the same genius floyd fans accusing him off?

            genius floyd fans and their logic.

              That fight was the decider on who is the bigger ATG. So as of now Floyd is above him.

                he's considered that by those who have a VESTED interest in promoting a fighter they helped to HYPE up which gives them credibility as boxing writers and "journalists"
                i said he is a top 50 fighter ALL-TIME nothin' wrong with that

                    that fighter of the decade award was a joke..lost to a past prime Morales, drew with Marquez who he dropped 3 times and never beat him clearly, and made a name fighting Mayweathers leftovers in Hatton, DLH, and Mayweather whitewashed Marquez after a 2 year lay off...I dont need the BWAA to tell me who was better when their is video evidence that Mayweathe was better and more dominant


                    Floyd said it best ," How can you be fighter of the decade and you lost in the decade? Im undefeated and have been champion over a decade."



                    you have to look at who does the voting for these awards and lets be real....a media darling will get accolades before someone who goes against the grain


                    perfect example was fighter of the year in espy's....Ronda Rousey got it beating nobodies and Mayweather won the biggest fight in history money-wise and the most important of this era between the two best and he didnt get fighter of the year???? Yea right...you have to consider who is voting for these awards and they have their preferences
