Are Manny and Floyd both locked in as Top 10 ATGs?

[Da Pimper]

Now that both men's careers are basically over, let's take a look at just some of their unique accomplishments.

Manny "Pac-Man" Pacquiao
Champion in more divisions than anyone in history (8 divisions)
Beat longevity in boxing history (champion in 4 decades)
First man to become lineal champion in 5 weight classes
Only 4-time welterweight champion in history
Oldest welterweight champion in history

Floyd "Money" Mayweather
Beat more World Champions than anyone in history
Beat more Future Hall-of-Famers than anyone in history
Best defense ever (Compubox)
Most accurate puncher ever (Compubox)
Undefeated as a Professional (50-0)

Just two truly incredible athletes, both men set records that may never be broken.

Have they done enough in your eyes to be in the Top 10 of all time?

If yes, where in the Top 10 do you rank each?

If not, list 10 boxers who are greater.

Hmm, gonna need more fantasy fight threads to be for sure.

Everybody has to be prime in these fantasy fights though.

Neither Top 5 in my IMO.

Boxing has a very deep history of great fighters who did great things from different eras.

They both Top 10 or Top 13 imo. With Floyd ranking higher prolly around the #7 spot with Manny around the #10 through #13 spot

I say this cuz I don't want to easily disregard the other legends by just saying things like top 3 or top 5.

Larry has a point when he brings up how hard it is to make a list.

Alot of guys don't even know about all the best fighters in history. I would be lying if I said I did.

Everything is opinion. If you have one higher than the other, its legit, unless Elroy/BodyBagz/pasawayako sees your list though.

My only problem with guys opinions is when they use a certain criteria to rank a particular fighter then disregard it to undermine a different fighter.

Aka Fanboy logic

Top 20 absolute LOCK. Both of them.
Top 10 can be very subjective - really off the top of my head, neither crack the top ten.

Totally agree. Great post.......

Not to me but I’m not going to begrudge any of their hardcore fans that illusion.

Let's put it this way....Pac is attached to May's hip.

When May was active, Pac was an after thought.
