To quote the great Michael Rosenthal flip flopping bytch azzz himself. So Manny is ranked higher then Floyd despite losses and controversial wins and needing to fight fighters 3 and 4 times to separate himself and still many don't think he ever beat Marquez once. But because he was fighting the best that means more then other guys who were undefeated but not fighting the top guys. But now that Canelo is fighting and beats top elite guy after top guy now the fact that he's not blowing then out means he is not the best while other guys winning but doing it against no where near the same level of competition means they are better? Holy shyt this guy just making up double standards to knock down fighters he just doesn't like. Did it to Floyd for years now uses opposite standard to hate on Canelo. But let's him tell you

Manny Pacquiao is indeed the “Greatest Fighter of the Decade” and no less than the “Bible of Boxing” has confirmed this.
The Ring Magazine has ranked Pacquiao as the greatest in 2000s, placing him among the best fighters in the past 10 decades including “Hammerin’” Henry Armstrong, “Sugar” Ray Robinson, Muhammad Ali and “Sugar” Ray Leonard.
The “Greatest” list was compiled by Ring Magazine’s Michael Rosenthal, who ranked former top pound-for-pound fighter Floyd Mayweather Jr. as a mere second placer.
“Sorry Floyd but you need to fight the best to be the best,” Rosenthal said in his accompanying comment.
Apart from being named as this decade’s greatest, Pacquiao already held Ring Magazine titles for featherweight and super featherweight divisions.
After beating British superstar Ricky Hatton on May 2, Pacquiao went home with the International Boxing Organization (IBO) title plus another Ring Magazine crown in the welterweight division.
He is also the first boxer to win the lineal championship ("the man who beat the man") in four different weight classes.
Before winning the IBO title, Pacquiao has won the World Boxing Council lightweight, WBC super featherweight, IBF super bantamweight, and WBC flyweight titles.
The ‘Greatest’ returns home
Pacquiao has finally arrived home in his native General Santos City after a day of celebration in Manila.
The People’s Champ went around General Santos to greet thousands of his supporters who lined up the streets despite the rains.
Pacquiao was accompanied by his mother Nanay Dionesia, who will be celebrating her birthday on Friday.
After touring around General Santos, the boxer went to his “second home” in Sarangani, where he is reportedly planning to run for congressman in 2010.
“Symbolic” title
Malacañang, meanwhile, clarified that the title “Envoy for Peace and Understanding” accorded to Pacquiao is merely symbolical.
Press Secretary Cerge Remonde said that the title does not mean that Pacquiao will be joining the government’s peace negotiating panel with the insurgents.
“Pacquiao will be more of a symbol. You can't expect him to conduct key negotiations. At most he is a rallying point for national unity,” said Remonde.
The Palace also distanced itself from Pacquiao’s political ambitions.
“The political plans of Manny Pacquiao are not sure. When he arrived I understand he mentioned a change of heart. We can't speak for him,” said Remonde.
