how on earth could the author imagine a scenario and end it with a very stupid outcome between fighters of the past and present? if Scott Levinson really knows his thing, he could be raking millions in vegas by now just picking a winner in every boxing contest he sees. But the truth is no, so that’s why he still continue to write stupid columns and attach PACMAN’s name to it so he could have some loose change to feed his stupid brain. What a loser..

To media outfits worldwide:
No matter what survey or voting system you may run to hype up your chosen champs, but historical records have proven otherwise.
The undisputed boxing historical fact: There’s only one fighter in history to become: 1) the legitimate champion in 7 weight divisions; 2) legitimate lineal champion in 4 weight divisions, 3) only boxing champ to have destroyed the most number of hall-of-famers totalling 6 world champions in different weight divisions… and that’s no other than — Emmanuel “Manny/The Pacman” Dapidran Paquiao of the Philippines!
Therefore, the real,legitimate and historically-accurate Greatest Fighters of All Time goes to:
No. 1 – Manny Pacquiao (7 weight division champ)
No. 2 – Oscar de la Hoya (6 weight division champ)
No. 3 – Floyd Mayweather & Sugar Ray Leonard (5 weight division champs)
Nobody can ever rewrite history. If you want to get respect, you must earn it as it happen in history and not get it thru votes! That’s irresponsible journalism!

watched the mayweather – hatton fight again last night and compared it to pacquiao’s demolition of hatton. looked like mayweather was trying to connect with that left since round 1. he’s got fast hands but not that accurate in that fight. he tends to duck more on his right side too. well that’s going to be a problem against pacquiao who is left handed. i see an uppercut coming money’s way. that should give a whole new meaning to the term, RIGHT ON THE MONEY… but LEFT this time, ehehe… well you get my drift. also, mayweather drops his hands often. you can do that to hatton but with pacquiao’s speed, he’ll catch you faster than you can fart.

both pacquiao and mayweather have bad habits also and like their attitudes, both habits are contrasting as well. for one, paquiao drops his hands after punching. on the other hand, mayweather drops his hands before punching. isn’t that interesting? now roach is probably cooking up something for pacman to exploit money’s bad habits. same with the mayweather camp. one thing is sure though, floyd sr was wrong before with his assessments on pacman.

I think this is a good test to Mayweather’s skill if he can still perform in spite of Pacquiao’s aggresiveness. But I don’t think it is fair for Mayweather to let Pacquiao win. What ever the outcome is Mayweather should still be the winner since we know that he is the more skillful one. Unless Pacquiao will surprise us with an extra ordinary boxing skill that night.

This fight is something that will go down to the books. So it is not merily measured by speed or by strength but by skill.

Pinoy .. you’re so stupid. You should shut up your mouth. Maybe all you predictions was wrong because your analysis was so stupid. lol

why don’t you just shut the fuck up? This is HIS take on what would happen if ever they meet. He made some good points in his analysis, although I do not agree with some, bare in mind that this is HIS take. Pitting fighters from different eras is inherently subjective. At the end of the day, just like this upcoming fight between pacquiao and mayweather, your guess and the author’s guess is as good as mine. Did you really think that pacquiao would whoop dela hoya so bad that he will quit on his stool? Yeah, me neither. There you go.

It’s true there’s no hatred towards Pacquiao but the analysis is so stupid.

Well, yeah lets say the fights that manny took against De la hoya, Marco Antonio Barrera, Erik morales, Ricky Hatton, Miguel cotto..didn’t happen…
Your comments would probably be the same as above..
To sum up these, why u guys could not accept the reality that PACMAN is the greatest boxer ever. We should be lucky that we witnessed his greatness

absolutely correct!!! we are all witness to PACMAN’s improvements in his arsenal, while PBF has not added anything to his skills and instead uses his mouth more often in this defining stage of their careers. if the mayweather who beat coralles will fight PACMAN of today, it would be a very exciting fight. very tough to call!!! i hope this will not be wishful thinking!!! the fans deserve to watch the PBF of old fight the PAC of today!!! cmon floyd, bring it on!!!
