    You know Pacquiao is a celeb in his home country, adverts, movies, singing, he is a senator, they are people who don't follow or don't like boxing who know who he is.


    If I showed a picture to 50 of my colleagues at work, less than 5 will be able to name him.

    Over 40 will be able to name Tyson.
    Ask them if they heard of Jack the Ripper I bet they all say yes.

    Ask boxing circles who is the best boxer you will get a more relevant answer to this convo, because under the guise of star etc its a BS thread which is a neg or a prop as boxers .

      So you’re saying Jack the Ripper is a bigger star than Floyd too?

      Sadly I’d have to agree even though he was a horrible person he still has more star power than Floyd on a global scale

      Floyd wouldn’t be a blip if he fought in the 80s because Ray and Hearns both beat him he would’ve been a Don Curry level star power

                For the 100th time... That was never the debate...idiot.


                Would Floyd be the A-side if he came back....

                Had nothing to do with Ali, Tyson etc.

                And when did i ever compare Floyd to Tyson?? Or say Tyson or any past greats was bigger or not.

                U cant even quote me... Thats how full of shyt u are

                  No comparison.

                  Mike Tyson is the realest along side with Sonny Liston.

                    Obviously there's no comparison. Tyson is a Babe Ruth level name. 100 years from now Tyson will be known. Floyd Mayweather has already been forgotten by the general public.
