The careers of Roy Jone Jr. and Manny Pacquiao have many similarities.
Roy Jones Jr. started his career as a Light Middleweight, and won titles from Middleweight to Heavyweight. At his peak he was ranked as the #1 P4P fighter in the world and was the BWAA’s Fighter of the Decade for the 1990s. He’s considered an all time great, but continued to fight well past his prime.
Manny Pacquiao started his career as a Flyweight and won titles all the way to Light Middleweight. At his peak he was ranked as the #1 P4P fighter in the world and was the BWAA’s Fighter of the Decade for the 2000s. He considered an all time great, but is continuing to fight well past his prime.
Roy Jones Jr’s Final Boxing Record:
Total fights 75
Wins 66
Wins by KO 47
Losses 9
Losses by KO 5
Manny Pacquiao’s current Boxing Record:
Total fights 69
Wins 60
Wins by KO 39
Losses 7
Losses by KO 3
Draws 2
------
This isn’t a debate about who had the better opponents, or who has the most impressive accomplishments, or who’s higher on the all time P4P list.
I’m saying that its possible that Manny may end up with the same amount of fights as Roy (75 fights).
