He was being mentioned with the Ali's, Armstrong's and duran's when he ain't even greater than Floyd who is hands down the greatest of this era. Whatever pacquiao accomplishes here on out only makes floyd look greater.
If Pacquiao is overrated then tell me.......

Even Floyd fans say how great Pac is now, now that Floyd has a win over Pac.
Pacs arguably the best of the era. Thats not overating him thats just being realistic.Last edited by hugh grant; 06-28-2017, 06:36 AM.Comment

Thanks for educating me as i didnt know this.Manny being overrated has more to do with his PED use and his well documented Toradol abuse.
Floyd called his bluff in 2009 with a blood test and ever since Manny has been on a rapid decline.
Never in the history of boxing has a fighter gone from getting koed with a jab from small guys to walking through punches from bigger guys 8 divisions higher.
Pac must have been drained before. David haye was put down by light heavyweights and then could take punches from Wlad.
So i think you might be looking too much into that.Comment

Idk dude, I still see a lot of Floyd fans around here who trash the f**k out of Manny. I mean you got dudes who damn near act like he's a bum ass C fighter or something. Which is always baffling to me because wouldn't you want to pump Manny up if you're a Floyd fan? To make Floyd's win over Manny look that much better? And didn't Floyd himself say that his win over Manny was "the most important" of his career?
**** if I was a Floyd fan I'd be talking glowingly about Manny at every opportunity, lol.Comment

You are taking the word overrated out of context. he isn't over rated in the sense of a Matthysse-people rate him as a top tier guy when he truly isn't. Manny is a top tier 1st ballot HOF'er.1 Fighter that can back from the knock out of 2012, at age 33 years old, then returns in the ring after a year lay off, dominates once more besides the loss to Mayweather, and retains the welterweight champion at age 37.
Hint: Roberto Duran - Not included.
Apparently according to some alts, he is still overrated.
Manny is over rated when you have posters that put him ahead of Floyd, say he is the best of his generation, or put him in the top 25 all time. Whenever media/writers/historians rank fighters, Manny generally falls between 30-35 which is fair.Comment

Pacquiao accomplished more things than Floyd. And the only one to accomplish certain things than to all other boxers in the past and present. So I understand why many people ranked Manny above Floyd. I ranked Floyd no. 13 and Manny no. 11 in my ATG list.You are taking the word overrated out of context. he isn't over rated in the sense of a Matthysse-people rate him as a top tier guy when he truly isn't.

Like Kellerman said regarding the whose greater.
"You can argue Floyd, and you can Argue Pacquiao, my main argument is that PAcquiao accomplished greater things than Mayweather and has a resume to put him on above Mayweather. While in terms of head 2 head Floyd beat him, but because Floyd is the natural bigger man, he has certain advantages to why he will likely beat Pacquiao."Comment
