Who has the better resume Pernell Whitaker or Manny Pacquiao?

[Tiozzo]

it's pretty close to me...

close, slight edge to pack in terms of resume

btw de la hoya beat whitaker stop crying haters

Pacquiao would have embarrassed Whitaker and knocked him out cold in less than 4 rounds. Don't compare a God to a mere mortal human. Pacquiao is on another level.

Those guys were naturally bigger than him and I agree they'd win. Hearns wasn't losing to a Welter who couldn't crack. I don't know, outside a few other super legends at 35, who I would favor to beat the best Pea at 35 or 40.

Them being naturally bigger is one of the main reasons why I think they beat him. Size and skill is difficult to overcome for anybody.

Is this some sort of a sick joke?? Pacquiao has one of the best if not the BEST resume of all time.

I think Pac's resume comes from him climbing weight classes...NO ONE has done it like he has...the only glitch is his choice of opponents and cherrypicking washed up fighters...but his legacy is still intact I think...If Pac would have fought Floyd, Berto Instead of Mosley, then he may be up their...now if Pac beats Floyd, I dunno man he gets ATG status

I think Leonard and Hearns handle Whitaker.

Prime Whitaker at his best ideally was 135/140.

If you mean in terms of winning belts when there are four per class (at least), sure. Otherwise...

Sam Langford
Jimmy McLarnin
Roberto Duran (started around Bantam and won a Middle belt)
Tommy Hearns (beat men who won titles from 40 to Cruiser)
Roy Jones (Middle to Heavy across roughly the same weight span)
Henry Armstrong

It's rare but not first time.

Only one of those really comparable is Homicide Hank. . . Lol it's still funny that just about every fight he had was contested at a catchweight.

But to the TS's question, Pac has the better resume. . . Pac is the best southpaw of all time. . . .

Morales TWICE, Mab TWICE, Marquez TWICE? Cotto? Hatton (at his natural weight). . . CLottey (who everybody seems to underrated for some reason - but seeing how Pac is the ONLY BOXER to EVER beat him so one-sidedly). . .

Not to mention his slew of other wins against world champs, and fringe world class guys.

Im not saying Pac would beat Whitaker. . . I honestly don't know. . . Whitaker had a better all around skillset. . But Pac has a better resume, and is thereby deserving to be ranked higher than Pea. .
